frog bolt for railroad

A frog bolt is a kind of track bolt used on railroad frog in a part of railway turnout. Railway turnouts face some risks such as points are incorrectly set, points might move or reversed, etc. which might cause a collision or derail even worse. Because turnouts exist so many potential risks, they greatly influence the safe running of a railway. Large frog bolts with high strength are fixed on the railroad frog to reduce risks and increase the safety of railway running. This type of railroad fastener is especially welcomed by American and Uk customers.
