Overview
There are many different ways of fixing railway sleepers together. Some people rely on concrete. Others on simple gravity. Some people fasten railway sleepers together with Timberlok Screws. Others use wooden dowels. Some people use steel angle brackets or steel flat connector plates. Others use wooden stakes.
Angle brackets are ideal for 90 degree connections in raised beds or retaining walls where you want to create a strong corner join. Each angle bracket has:
15 x 3.7mm nail holes
4 x M8 bolt holes
3 x M10 bolt holes
2 x M10 bolt slots
Flat connector plates are useful for connecting different layers of railway sleepers together, when they are stacked on top of each other. They are also perfect for connecting together a run of railway sleepers, where there are 2 or more in a straight line, and you want to make the join as rigid as possible. Each flat connector plate has:
19 x 3.7mm nail holes 5 x M8 bolt holes
3 x M10 bolt holes 3 x M10 bolt slots
