Railway Screw Spike A0 B0 C0

Screw spikes designated as A0, B0, and C0 are specific types of railway lag screws used for fastening rail base plates to wooden sleepers (ties), typically in the South American and African markets. 

The A0, B0, and C0 railway screw spikes refer to standardized screw spikes commonly used in railway track fastening systems. These spike types are typically used to secure rails to ties (cross ties) in various track systems, with different types offering specific characteristics based on their application, material, and load-bearing requirements.

Specifications

These designations correspond to specific dimensions:

A0: 23mm (diameter) x 105mm (length)

B0: 23mm (diameter) x 125mm (length)

C0: 23mm (diameter) x 150mm (length, or similar) 

Corrosion Resistance

A0: Mild corrosion resistance due to basic material and coatings.

B0: Improved corrosion resistance, especially when used in outdoor environments or systems exposed to weather conditions.

C0: High corrosion resistance, with coatings such as hot-dip galvanization or zinc plating. This makes them ideal for coastal areas, saltwater exposure, or areas prone to extreme temperature variations.

Screw spikes, also called sleeper screws or rail screws, provide greater holding power than traditional cut spikes and are used in heavy rail applications. They are installed into pre-bored holes in the sleeper and may be used with spring washers or plastic ferrules to enhance the fastening system.
