US Patent 10,711,406
The keyway design uses an integrated fastening system (comprised of a ductile plate and pad) to provide the strength and gauge holding ability of concrete with the modulus of wood.
- Designed to be fully interspersed with wood ties and utlizie traditional MOW equipment
- Supports incremental conversion from wood to concrete with minimal capital impact while strengthening track and extracting full value from wood tie assets
- Accommodates different rail sections or fasteners with simple plate change
- Track guage adjustable
- Siffness can be modified for optimal track transitions and bridge applications
