K-VOSSLOH BasePlate for Railway and Subway Systems

Stability in Motion

Subway Rail Base Plate

The rail base plate is a key component of railway track and rail fastening system, providing a secure interface between the rail and the sleeper. By providing a stable support surface beneath the rail, the base plate facilitates the effective transfer and distribution of static and dynamic loads generated during train service.
