Key Functions
Load Distribution
Transfers vertical and lateral forces from the rail to the sleeper, reducing track deformation.
Rail Alignment
Maintains proper gauge (distance between rails) and cant (inward tilt for curved tracks).
Insulation
In electrified tracks, insulated tie plates prevent stray currents.
Corrosion Resistance
Coated or galvanized to extend service life.
1
Must be positioned to maintain correct track gauge and superelevation (for curves).
2
Secured with elastic clips, bolts, or spikes depending on track type.
3
Check for cracks, wear, or corrosion during routine track maintenance.
