Gauge Plate Insulator for Rail Fastening System
Gauge Plate Insulator
The gauge plate insulator is a core component of railway fastening systems. It is installed between the outer rail bottom and the shoulder of the baseplate. It has three core functions: maintaining the standard track gauge, realizing electrical insulation, and restricting and securing the rail laterally. And it is widely applied to high-speed railways, conventional mixed passenger-freight railways, metro and light rail transit lines. We specialize in manufacturing a complete range of railway fasteners, including insulated gauge blocks. Our gauge plate insulator can maintain precise rail gauge and deliver superior electrical insulation performance for all electrified railway lines. Custom solutions can be provided in accordance with customers’ drawings and technical specifications. Whether for railway project procurement, railway improvement or routine maintenance, we will meet all your requirements.
