Heavy-Duty Mine Railway Track Spikes for Mining Applications

Mine railway track spikes, also known as railroad dog spikes or track spikes, are specialized fasteners used to fix steel rails to wood sleepers in mining settings. Our heavy duty mining track spikes are manufactured from premium hot rolled steel, and are designed for superior strength and durability in demanding underground and surface mining applications.

Why Choose Our Mine Track Spikes?

Reliable Track Stability
  • Offset head design avoids loosening under heavy loads
  • Maximum holding force with hot-rolled steel construction
  • One-piece forged design (no welds/joining) for increased strength
  • Rail gauge maintenance under severe mining conditions
Mining-Grade Durability
  • Especially designed for coal mines, gold mines and industrial railways
  • Resistant to vibration and impact load typical of mining operations
  • Coatings are available to protect against corrosive environments
  • Longer service life means lower maintenance costs

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What’s the difference between dog spikes and screw spikes?
A: Dog spikes (cut spikes) are hammered into pre-drilled holes and are perfect for wooden sleepers. They are an economical solution for standard applications. Screw spikes are threaded into holes and offer greater pull-out resistance and vibration resistance and are suitable for concrete sleepers and high load applications.
Q: Do you supply custom sizes and specifications?
A: Yes, we can do custom manufacturing from drawings or samples. Custom sizes, materials and finishes are available to meet specific project requirements.
Q. What is the best surface treatment for mining environments?
A: A plain/oiled finish is adequate for normal mining conditions. For wet or corrosive environments, we recommend hot dip galvanizing (HDG) for longer service life and rust protection.
Q: How are your track spikes made?
A: Our spikes meet ASTM A65, AREMA, BS, JIS, GB, UIC and AS standards. Third-party inspection and certification can also be provided if required.
Q: What is the MOQ?
A: Regular MOQ is 5,000pcs. Customized specifications may vary MOQ. Small trial orders are welcome to check the quality.
Q: Do you offer samples?
A: Yes, we can offer you the samples for quality check. Sample costs and shipping charges apply. Sample costs are refundable on confirmation of bulk order.
Q: What are your terms of payment?
A: Our common payment term is T/T 30% deposit, 70% balance before shipping. We also accept L/C at sight for established customers.omers.
