Staytite works with Network Rail to find optimal fishplate fasteners

Staytites innovative approach to this endeavour involves the deployment of Intelligent Bolts, which offer real-time measurements of both temperature and clamp load.

This cutting-edge technology not only furnishes us with immediate insights into the joints security but also captures a comprehensive history of the clamp load from initial installation to ongoing monitoring. This transformative capability significantly enhances the efficiency of scheduled maintenance, enabling real-time responses to emerging information rather than relying on periodic checks.

Furthermore, Intelligent Bolts find application in scenarios such as the inspection of temporary rail clamps, traditionally requiring daily checks. With Staytites technology, these joints can be remotely assessed, eliminating the need to physically inspect the tracksan invaluable feature, especially when considering safety and operational efficiency.

It' noteworthy that the versatility of Intelligent Bolts extends beyond rail applications. Presently, these advanced bolts are successfully deployed within wind turbines, providing crucial real-time data on the integrity of bolted joints. With available sizes as compact as M10, Intelligent Bolts offer a scalable solution for monitoring clamp load in diverse settings, making them an indispensable tool wherever such precision is required.
