Built for the rail car
From car tops to end platforms, crews need a walking surface that stays sure-footed under weather, vibration, and heavy use. Boards can ship with integral wiped ends where the design calls for them, and they pair with rail-ready mounting hardware including our galvanized Bolt-Lock Washer so the deck, the ends, and the fasteners come as one coordinated system from a single factory source.
