We have the capability to manufacture all types of rail fish plate to suit all types of rail sections, such as UIC 60, UIC 54, U33, BS 80A, BS 90A, IRS 52 KG, IRS 90 Lbs, 115 RE, 136 RE, TJ 45, TJ 37, RN 45, etc. Our fish plates are manufactured to international standards according to BS, ASTM and DIN, among others.
Normal Fish Plate
We offer 4 holed or 6 holed fish plate to suit 60 kg, UIC, 54 kg UIC, 52 kg UIC, 52 kg, 90A, 90R, 80A, 80'O', 88'O', 75R, 60R, 115 RE, 132 RE, 50R rails, etc.
Joggled Fish Plate
This product is a specially forged fish plate. It is suitable for the temporary repair of cracked welded rail joints with clamp assembly to suit various rail sections. Used as an emergency clamp, joggled fish plate enables quick and temporary repair, allowing continued movements through the section at a reduced line speed. They are readily available in a considerable quantity at all times.
Combination/Compromise Fish Plates


We produce specially designed fish plates to join two different rail sections of rail tracks for various customers when they require them.Adhering to our quality first policy, THRAIL pays great attention to quality control management on our rail fish plate. We have been granted ISO9001-2008 certificates and have received the production license of China's Railway Ministry on railway products. We have a full set of inspection instruments to ensure all our rail fish plates are of high quality and up to customers' requirements.
 As a leading manufacturer of rail fastening based in China, THRAIL also produces many other railway fasteners, such as track bolt, sleeper screw, track spike, tie plate, rail clip, elastic rail clip, SKL tension clamp, rail shoulder, and so on.

 Frequently asked question about rail joints
 1.What is insulated rail joint ?
It is commonly known that the rail joint bars or fishplates are metal joints which are conductive, however there is a kind of insulated rail joint bars, made of insulating materials, this new rail technology is used widely in modern railroad construction.
The insulated rail joint bars are made of thermosetting materials, with the properties of rustproof, anti-erosion, ultraviolet –proof, non-conductive and non-electromagnetic, this rail components cannot be reprocessed and are therefore free from being stolen.
 2.How is the rail joints quality ?
Quality of THRAIL rail joints is guaranteed by a special heat treatment. When the train is running, rail joints (railway fish plates) play an important role in connecting and fastening rails as well as keeping the integrity of rails. While the speed and load of rails are increasing, it requires a higher performance to the property of rail joints. A rail joint can connect two rails with six bolts. Relying on the up and down shoulder slopes and the fastening with rails, it can support the large load during the train’s runtime, the fretting wear and other complex stresses.
The property of railway joints always changes with the rate of cooling. What’ s more, during the heat treatment , the hardness and the impact of rail joints can be different according to the degree of water quenching.
After pouring were conducted, two types of the process which are called immediate quenching and tempering processes can give out some important information. Because of the slow drop of temperature, it can lead to a high degree of the hardness. So the mechanical property of rail joint becomes more advantageous.
 3.How to do maintenance for rail joints ?
To ensure the fine use of railroad equipments, we need to maintain the rail joints from time to time in order to improve quality and avoid any accidents.
Assembling and maintenance standards for rail joints:STEP1: Check if the bolts are well fastened and make sure no wounds or cracks on the surfaceSTEP 2: Keep each connected rod and locking device clear from cracks. No grinding or corrosion on the rod body or abrasion pin hole less than 1mm. Good insulation shall be maintained.STEP 3: All iron rods’ connection is with good insulation and the insulation link between lock iron and gauge rod are both fine. At uninsulated condition, 3mm gap should be kept and not into other parts. And bolts are fastened well.STEP 4: Ensure no cracks on the shell of the switch machine to assembling rail joints, and the installation is firm under good lock condition.STEP 5: Ensure the oil tank circuit in good protection without damage or being buried by ballasts or other debris.
