Description of APC-4 Rail Shoulder
The APC-4 Rail Shoulder is usually made of cast iron and has a surface that is anti-corrosion treatment for improved durability. Its design feature is that it has embedded bolts or threaded holes, which are easy to fix directly during later installation.
Features
- Pre-embedded design: pre-installed before pouring concrete, integrated with the structure, and improve overall strength.
- High load-bearing capacity: suitable for equipment or brackets that bear large loads.
- Anti-rust and corrosion: The surface treatment can adapt to humid and corrosive environments.
- Easy to install: reserve bolt holes or threaded holes to simplify subsequent equipment installation steps.
Installation steps
- Positioning: Determine the embedded position according to the design drawings.
- Fix: Tie the iron seat to the formwork or steel bars to ensure that it does not move during pouring.
- Pouring concrete: After pouring, check whether the iron seat is level and accurately positioned.
- Post-installation: After the concrete is cured, fix by bolts or welding.
Function
- Enhanced stability: Provides a solid foundation for the equipment and reduces the impact of vibration or external forces.
- Simplified construction: Avoid damage to the structure by post-punching, saving time and cost.
- Long-term durability: The pre-embedded design reduces the risk of rust and extends the service life.
