Dog Spike For Rail Fasteners
Railway spikes are key fasteners used to secure rails to sleepers (or the track bed) in railway track systems. Typically made of metal (such as carbon steel or alloy steel), they are typically spike-shaped, with a brim on top and a sharpened base. Their core function is to securely fasten the rails to the sleepers, preventing lateral or longitudinal displacement during train travel and ensuring track geometric stability and smoothness.
