Mineral Gauge Rod

Overview

Our gauge rod family is engineered specifically for mining railway applications. By combining structural design, materials science and field feedback, we deliver adjustable and tailor-made solutions that fit narrow underground tracks through heavy open-pit lines—reducing derailment risks and extending track life.

Key Features 

  • Gauge accuracy: adjustable ±5–20 mm (model-dependent)

  • Strength tiers: Q235 for light duty; Q355 for main haul; reinforced/double-thread designs for extreme loads

  • Vibration control: anti-loosen double nuts + lock washers standard

  • Corrosion protection: hot-dip galvanize (specified μm) / epoxy / 316L SS options

  • Installation method: bolt-clamp (no welding) — faster, safer

Ordering Checklist (What we need)

Please provide: gauge, rail profile (P-number or cross-section), max axle load, target speed, minimum curve radius, environment (underground/open-pit/wet/corrosive/low temperature), sample request, annual quantity, lead time.

Why Choose Us?

  • Broad compatibility: supports common mining gauges (600 / 762 / 900 / 1000 / 1435 mm) and P-series rail profiles with adaptable clamping interfaces.

  • Condition-driven design: rods are engineered to meet axle load, operating speed and curve radius requirements; material options range from Q235 (light duty) to Q355 and low-temperature steels for heavy or cold environments.

  • Impact-ready: ball-joint options and reinforced shafts dissipate lateral shear and braking shocks, sharply lowering thread fatigue and loosening.

  • Corrosion & weather resistance: hot-dip galvanizing, epoxy or PVDF coatings; 316L stainless steel for aggressive environments.

  • Easy to service: threaded adjustment, inspection scales and dust-proof caps; bolt-clamp installation eliminates hot-work for safer underground application.

  • Traceable delivery: material certificates, mechanical test reports and surface treatment inspection included; third-party testing available.

FAQs

Q:When should I choose a threaded rod?

A: Choose threaded when ongoing settlement, high number of curves, or on-site micro-adjustments are expected. Fixed rods are more cost-effective for stable straight tracks.

A: Select μm thickness or g/m² zinc spec based on exposure class. For aggressive environments we recommend 316L or HDG plus epoxy.
