This British Standard specifies the dimensions and requirements for normal and high strength bolts and nuts for fishplates conforming to BS 47 : Part 1 : 1991 for use with railway rails conforming to BS 11 : 1985.
The provisions of this specification are not restricted to fishbolts for use with rails and fishplates conforming to BS 11 : 1985 and BS 47 : Part 1 : 1991 and may be applied to fishbolts for any rail section of 24.8 kg/m (50 lb/yd) or greater linear mass and the complementary fishplates.
