BASE PLATE PADS


Short description

The elasticity required for ballastless track systems is guaranteed by highly elastic Base plate Pads and installed between the ribbed base plates and the supporting concrete slab with a spring rigidity of c = 5 - 60 kN / mm. This ensures a load-spreading effect in the rails and greatly reduces any vibrations and structure-borne sound. A low frequency response between 1 Hz and 30 Hz and an excellent rebound elasticity (> 60 %) are some properties among other advantages.
