Exothermic Weld for Rail Signal Bonds and TLJB Bonds – Amiable Impex®

What is Continuity Bonds / Rail Signal Bonds and TLJB Bonds?

1. Continuity Bond – this is a wire connected to 2 consecutive tracks to maintain electrical continuity. The welding is done on the rail head (top of the rail track, below 1/2 round on which the wheels roll). A set of two moulds are used to achieve the joints (LH – Left Hand & RH – Right Hand). The wire size and length are fixed as mentioned in the enquiry. The wire is Copper and its capped at both ends (by a hammer head die).
Normal Cable Size – 10 sq.mm – 4.05 mm dia.
2. TLJB – this is a connection from rail web (centre of rail track)/ earth pipe to TLJB (equipment) terminal. Here again LH & RH moulds are used. The wire sizes can be different. It is also known asTrack Lead Joint Bond / Track Lead Junction Box.
Normal Cable Size is- 35 sq.mm – 8mm Dia

Both tasks are simple to perform provided you can source the continuity bond wires

(1). Weld metal required will be 25g for 3/16 dia cable size.
JOINT BOND KITS

A kit comes with the following items:

 

  • 200 Shots
  • 2 replacement Molds (Right & Left)
  • Flint ignitor

 

HAMMER DIES : Bonds can be made in the field using supplied copper alloy signal cable, or your own cable, a copper sleeve, and a hammer die.
