Recently, we have successfully exported a complete set of K-type rail clamps, bolts, nuts and fishplates to Kenyan customers for fastening African BS80R and 90LBS rails. These products are designed by us specifically for African rail systems to ensure their robustness and durability.
In addition to these products, we also provide K-type sleepers to Kenyan customers to further improve the stability of the rails. These sleepers are used on steel sleepers and can effectively reduce track deformation and increase track life.
In addition, other types of clips are widely used in African railway systems, including A-type clips, B-type clips, I-type clips and O-type clips. These clips play an important role in track connections, effectively maintaining track geometry and reducing track maintenance.
80R fishplate is one of the best-selling products in the African market. The following are the standards and composition of 80R fishplates for your reference:
Standard:
BS80R is a rail standard used by the Kenyan railway system. Its type is fish plate.
80R fishplate is specially designed for the Kenyan railway system and is suitable for BS80R rail standards.
constitute:
Material: 80R fishplate is usually made of high-quality carbon steel, which has certain strength and durability.
Shape and size: The shape of the 80R fishplate is "K" type, and the size and shape comply with the requirements of the Kenya Railways system.
Connection method: Connect the fishplate and the rails together through rail clamps to ensure a firm connection between the rails.
We take the quality and safety of our products very seriously, so we use advanced manufacturing processes and materials to produce these products. At the same time, we also accept other standards and ingredients to meet the needs of different customers. If you are interested in our products, please feel free to contact us.
