Lubrication of the fishplate is essential to make sure the joints can work properly. It allows the rails to expand and contract as the temperature changes. It used to be done with thick black grease, that needed the joint full disassembling. But this has changed! Interflon lubrication can be applied without taking the joint apart and, the best part is it is not thick and black, so any issues like cracks with the fishplate can be seen easily
