Tie Bar Detail
1. Locate the tie bars between the rails. (Spaced evenly throughout the system.)
NOTE: Tie bars are to be placed at the end of monorail, at each splice and in the middle of the rail
if it is over 16' long. (Not necessarily evenly spaced.) Rail spacing details on Pages 26-30 ,
detail tie bar placements in each layout.
2. A single #10 x 5/8" self-drilling screws may be used to fasten the tie bars at each end to the rails
as necessary. (See Figure 4B.)

3. Tie bars should overlap and connect each rail to the next rail. Tie bars should be located along
each side of a rail splice and around the perimeter of the bin, no more than 6" from the end of the rail.
