I Forge Iron

Railroad steel


Recommended Posts

I needed a cutoff hardie to fit a 3/4 inch square hardie hole.

The closest thing I had were a few Railroad Anchors.

These are steel clips that clip onto a railroad rail right next to a tie and they help keep the rail from slipping. They are installed onto the rail using a sledge hammer.

They are shaped like a flattened letter C and are about an one inch by one inch in cross section.

It hardened it in water and then tempered the business end to to straw color.

Works fine, but I can't find out what the material is.

Anyone got an idea.

Thanks
