Product Introduction

Plain Surface Cast Iron 5.6 Grade Rail Shoulders are cast in concrete ties for the fixation of Elastic Rail Clips. These Iron Shoulders are manufactured from high-quality pearlitic malleable iron (M.C.I. Inserts) and spheroid graphite iron (S.G.C.I. Inserts).
We offer two main types: Single Stem Iron Shoulders, primarily used in pre-stressed concrete ties, and Twin Stem Iron Shoulders, commonly utilized in Bi-Block or Twin Block concrete ties. These accessories are designed for specific rail sections to ensure optimal elastic clip toe loading and weld integrity.
