Method Of Filling Spike Holes In Railway Ties
US Patent:
4295259, Oct 20, 1981
Filed:
Oct 13, 1978
Appl. No.:
5/951132
Inventors:
Curtis A. Rhodes - Columbia SC

International Classification:

US Classification:
2940218
Abstract:
A method of re-using wooden railroad ties in which the old spike holes are filled with a high density rigid polyurethane foam injected into the holes. The foam serves as a plug which prevents or retards deterioration of the tie at the hole site primarily by preventing or mitigating ingress of moisture. Additionally, the foam serves to anchor a new spike if by chance the same hole location is used when re-spiking the tie. The foam has good retention properties even if the spike is driven in before the foam has fully set.
