SECTION 1.1 SPECIFICATIONS FOR STEEL TIE PLATES (1992) 1.1.1 SCOPE (1992)
a. These specifications cover steel tie plates for use in railroad track.
b. Either low carbon or high carbon steel tie plates may be furnished unless purchaser specifies the chemical composition to be used. c. ASTM A67 applies in so far as conflicts do not exist.
b. The steel shall be cast by a continuous process, in ingots, or by other methods agreed upon by the purchaser and the manufacturer.

c.
Sufficient discard shall be taken from ingots and blooms rolled from ingots to ensure freedom from injurious segregations and pipe.
d. Tie plates shall be produced from hot rolled steel sections punched and sheared either hot or cold as appropriate to the chemical composition of the steel being used.
b. Finished material representing the heat may be product tested. The product analysis shall be within the limits for product analyses specified in Table 1-1.
Chemical Analysis Weight Percent Element Low Carbon Tie Plates Carbon Phosphorus Sulfur 0.150 min to 0.349 0.050 max 0.040 max High Carbon Tie Plates 0.350 to 0.850 0.050 max 0.040 max
1.1.3.2 Heat or Cast Analysis a. Separate analysis shall be made from test samples representing one of the first three and one of the last three ingots or continuously cast blooms preferably taken during the pouring of the heat. Determinations may be made chemically or spectrographically. Any portion of the heat meeting chemical analysis requirements of Table 1-1 may be applied. Additionally, any material meeting the product analysis limits shown in Table 1-1 may be applied after testing such material.
b. The first heat analysis shall be recorded as the official analysis, but the purchaser shall have access to all chemical analysis determinations. c. Upon request by the purchaser, samples shall be furnished to verify the analysis as determined in Article 1.1.3.2, paragraph a.

1.1.4.2 Optional Bend Tests Low Carbon Steel If preferred by the manufacturer the following bend test may be substituted for that described in Article 1.1.4.1. A piece of the rolled bar or the finished tie plate shall stand being bent cold through 90 degrees around a pin the diameter of which is not greater than the thickness of the section where bent, without cracking on the outside of the bent portion. The term thickness includes vertical height of ribs and shoulder where they are transverse to direction of pin. 1.1.4.3 Bend Test High Carbon Steel The bend test specimen specified in Article 1.1.5 shall stand being bent cold through 30 degrees around a pin the diameter of which is not greater than three times the thickness of the specimen without cracking on the outside of the bent portion. 1.1.4.4 Optional Bend Test High Carbon Steel If preferred by the manufacturer, the following bend test may be substituted for that described in Article 1.1.4.3. A piece of the rolled bar or the finished tie plate which may be bent in either direction shall stand being bent cold through 30 degrees around a pin the diameter of which is not greater than three times the thickness of the section where bent, without cracking on the outside of the bent portion. The term thickness includes vertical height of ribs and shoulder where they are transverse to direction of pin.
b. If any test specimen shows defective machining or surface flaws, it may be discarded and another specimen substituted.
