Rail Systems
Keeping Rail Systems on Track
The railway industry encompasses producing new vehicles, refurbishing old vehicles, maintaining existing vehicles, developing control systems, manufacturing, installing electrification devices and signaling equipment, and other services.
In addition to the passenger railway market, the rail industry maximizes how goods are moved within North America and to other international markets. Within a globally integrated supply chain, the rail industry works with customers to ship products promptly, enabling them to add value.
Safety in the industry is critical. Federal rules to impose safety standards for new cars and retrofit existing cars continues to be a critical topic in North America as the increased transportation of crude warrants increased safety.
The fastening systems that Fastbolt supplies are a key component in providing greater safety, reliability, and easier inspection while meeting ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials) requirements.
Railroad fasteners are mainly divided into:
- Fishplates
- Rail Fastening System
