Fish bolts, also known as fishtail threads, are specialized fasteners meticulously crafted for the connection of rail joint clamps, or fishtail plates. Predominantly utilized in the meticulous track-laying of industries such as metallurgy, coking, steel, and more, they ensure the steadfast union and security of rails and their joints. In certain scenarios, hexagonal bolts may serve as alternatives. The paramount function of these fish bolts is to guarantee the unwavering stability and safety of rail joints, enduring the immense pressure and vibrations induced by the dynamic operation of trains.
Product Features and Design Advantages
Forged from high-strength steel, such as 45# or Q235, fish bolts exude an impressive yield point and tensile strength, adeptly bearing the colossal pressure of high-velocity trains. Ingeniously engineered with a unique anti-loosening design, they effectively avert loosening due to train-induced vibrations, thus securing transportation safety. The fishtail-shaped bolt head facilitates swift and precise location and tightening by workers. Moreover, fish bolts treated with special surface coatings boast exceptional corrosion resistance, ensuring consistent performance even in the harshest environments, with a service life extending over decades.
Model specification and material selection
Fish bolts come in a variety of common models, including Φ14×70, Φ16×75, Φ18×90, Φ20×90, Φ22×135, and Φ24×135. These models are typically crafted through hot pressing or cold heading with the aid of a friction press. The materials predominantly consist of ordinary carbon steel (Q235) and robust high-strength steel (45#), along with specialized variants like insulated fish bolts. Performance grades span from 4.6 to 12.9, with grades 8.8 and upward classified as high-strength bolts, meticulously formed from low-carbon alloy or medium-carbon steel, and subjected to heat treatment for optimal strength.
Installation precautions
For seamless installation of fish bolts, heed the following precautions: lubricate the contact points between fish plate, rail, and bolts with oil; if misalignment occurs during insertion, opt to adjust the fish plate by gentle tapping, rather than forcing; adopt a tightening sequence beginning with the center followed by the sides (ideal for four-hole fish plates) using a wrench of specified length, such as a 55 cm screw wrench. Avoid simultaneous tightening by multiple individuals to prevent over-tightening. Bolt caps should strategically cross-install on both inner and outer lines to mitigate complete severance in derailment scenarios.
Application fields and importance
Fish bolts find extensive application across rail transportation sectors, including railways, subways, and light rails, representing vital components that ensure the unwavering safety of track connections. Their exceptional reliability and streamlined installation dramatically diminish the likelihood of railway mishaps, serving prestigious international projects such as the European ICE high-speed rail and the US Amtrak. Revered as the 'rice of industry,' fish bolts further contribute significantly to ships, vehicles, water conservancy projects, and a plethora of other fields.
