Tie Plug

Key Features & Benefits

  • Restore Spike Grip
    Tie plugs effectively fill old or oversize spike holes, creating a secure base for new spikes and helping maintain consistent gauge and alignment in track systems.
  • Extend Tie Life
    By reinforcing weakened tie holes, plugs reduce the need for premature tie replacement — delivering cost savings and greater service life for wood rail ties.
  • Durable & Decay-Resistant Materials
    Available in high-quality, naturally rot-resistant Yellow Cedar, our tie plugs resist environmental decay and insects without compromising performance.
  • Easy Installation
    Designed for use by manual or pneumatic tools, tie plugs install quickly in the field.
