Fishplates for grooveless flat bottom rails dimensions - Steel types
Also Known As:
The DIN 5902 standard focuses on the specifications for fishplates used for grooveless flat bottom rails. Fishplates are components used to join railway tracks together and ensure the stability and safety of the rail system. This document covers fishplates that are produced through rolling, forging, or casting methods.
The standard provides detailed information on the dimensions and tolerances of the fishplates, ensuring that they meet the required size and shape specifications. It also provides guidance on the different types of steel grades that can be used for the production of the fishplates, adding flexibility to the manufacturing process.
Additionally, the document includes information on the mass per unit length or mass per piece of the fishplates, allowing for accurate calculations and assessments of their weight and load-bearing capacity. The standard also addresses the gauges required to measure and adjust the central height and attachment of the fishplates, emphasizing the importance of proper alignment for the smooth operation of the rail system.
