Overview of Railroad Fastening Systems

Railroad fasteners are engineered components that secure rails to sleepers (ties) while maintaining proper gauge, alignment, and electrical isolation. These systems are critical for track stability, safety, and longevity under dynamic train loads.

K Type Fastening System
