Rail Plates | Railway Tie Plates | Bearing Plate

Our high-quality rail plates (also referred to as tie plates or bearing plates) form the critical interface between the steel rail and the sleeper or track beam. Whether you are specifying railway tie plates for standard track or heavy-duty bearing plates for crane rail and industrial rail systems, proper selection and manufacturing ensure long-term track performance.

What Are Railway Tie Plates?

Railway tie plates (often referred to as tie plates or railway bearing plates) are essential for safe, long-lasting track operations. They act as a buffer between rails and sleepers, reducing vibration impact and wear – directly extending the service life of your entire rail fixing system.

Our railway tie plates are designed for versatility:

Compatible with wooden sleepers (with reserved square holes for spike fixing) and concrete sleepers (paired with iron backing plates for spring bars).
Available in core types: single-shoulder, double-shoulder, hook twin tie plates, and specialized options for crane rail systems.
Manufactured via precision processes (steel plate processing, casting, forging) using premium S235JR/S355JR steel – ensuring strength and stability.
