For Sale: All Nation OW5 Flex Ties Simulated Wood NO Tie Plates For Code 100 3D Printed (4 Sections, 9.5″ each)PN#581AN
Note: Rail not included. Shown in pictures for demonstration purposes only.
This OW5 Flex Track ties for simulated wood NO tie plates is ideal for the new modeler that wants to get quickly started or add to building a layout in OW5 2 Rail. Aside from the ease of putting down a roadbed on straight away and curved sections, the cost is greatly reduced from a traditional nickel silver track at $10 to $12 per foot, this product comes in at around $4.00 per foot. The savings are significant allowing for acquiring some of the higher end turnouts available on the market to go with our track.
3D Printed in basically any color (brown is our default) with PLA filament, we can also print track for back porch or out door garden railroads in ABS, ABS+ or PETG via special order request.
This track can be glued or nailed down with pins or spikes. Holes are in the tie plates for easy spiking into the roadbed. These ties are made for Code 100.
Designed to increase the fun and to take some of the challenges out from doing scratch built hand laid track construction on the layout, we think this product will allow you to enjoy the hobby even more.
Modelers using this product may prefer to use their own tie plates on top of these ties. However, the same Flex Ties are available with simulated tie plates. Holes for spiking may need to be slightly cleared before spiking the rail due to the printing. Depending on the size of the spike and the length, the holes might need a little more clearance if it is desired to spike into the rode bed. If the ties are glued and there is a glue line surface, spikes may not easily get through the hard layer of glue. Consequently, the diameter of the holes for the spike are of potential use for shorter spikes that can press fit into the plastic tie to hold down the rail.
