2. the BEARING RAILSThe bearing rail (sleepers) was installed as the Foundation on which the rails are firmly laid and rods. Serve to (1) put and holds the rod rail, (2) keep kelebaran track (track gauge, is a measure of the width of the track Rails. Indonesia has a track gauge 1067 mm) so that it is always constant, in other words in order to stem the Rails do not stretch or narrows, (3) centering gauge Rod so as not to bend down when passed a series of KA, as well as (4) transfer the axle loads received from landing plate Rails and rods for spreading a layer of stone ballast underneath.Therefore, the bearing must be strong enough to hold the rod in order not to rail were strong, as well as to withstand the load circuit of KA. The bearings are mounted transversely from the position of the Rails at distances of up to 60 cm. antarbantalan there are three types of bearings, i.e.:(1) bearing wood (Timber Sleepers), made of wood or wooden sticks mix, which is coated with creosote (wood coating oil) to make it more durable and resistent(2) bearing Plate iron (Steel Sleepers), is the second generation of cushioning, durability of wood. Iron bearing not mounted on tracks or on eletrifikasi ter-tracks that use electric persinyalan(3) bearing reinforced concrete (Concrete Sleepers), is today's modern bearings, and most widely used because it is more powerful, durable, cheap, and able to withstand a load of greater than two other pads.
