Surface Installation Techniques
Backing plates are preferred for attaching tags to equipment, but tags may be mounted
directly to the car at the owner’s discretion. Aluminum material is permitted as a
substitute for the mounting plate material specified, when required for compatibility with
the car surface.
When painting the backing plates, protect the studs from paint.
Two approved methods for mounting tags and backing plates on locomotives and
railcars are rivet and bolt mounting.
Note:
Weld the backing plate to the freight car side sheet, but be certain the backing
plate is kept flat. If the car side sheet is deformed, spacing of welds may vary to
accommodate waviness of the freight car side.
Note:
Allow the backing plate to cool after welding before mounting the tag.
Rivet/Bolt Mounting Guidelines
Select a means for mounting the tag that secures the tag but does not compromise the
tag case.
