spike is a very important railway accessory. For railway equipment, the railway cannot operate without spike. The use of screw spike products is affected by weather, season and other related factors. When using screw spike, we need to combine the relevant situation of railway rail to see how the installation and maintenance tools and the properties of that railway are. On top of that, we also have to consider the effects of seasonal and environmental changes.
screw spike is a railway accessory with similar properties to ordinary metal equipment. In the installation and maintenance, the common installation tool of screw spike is a crowbar, which is also called a spike pry or spike lift in some places. The reason why this tool is used for spike maintenance and replacement is that screw spikes also have corrosion, wear, fracture, deformation, etc. It appears in common metals during use. These problems are inextricably linked to seasonal and environmental influences.
During seasonal changes, changes in air humidity and temperature can both have an irreversible effect on screw spike. These two conditions occur in areas with different seasons or large temperature differences. Because spike is made of metal, it is especially prone to rust like ordinary metal, and it is difficult to solve this problem with anti-corrosion paint. Therefore, ordinary screw spike will rust in the rainy season, affecting corrosion, and the change of temperature will directly lead to the strength of screw spike. It is common to use antifreeze products at high altitudes.
The above problems are only part of the issues related to the use of screw spike. In fact, many conditions such as strong convection weather, thunderstorms, high temperature and high pressure environment will lead to the decline of screw spike in quality, shape, strength, durability and many other aspects.
