Abstract: An anchor rail for an aircraft floor includes an upper flange with a guideway and two flange wings. The rail is formed of a beam and of an anti-corrosion protection. The beam is formed at least of a body made from a first material and defining the lower stiffening structure and an upper platform. The anti-corrosion protection wholly covers an upper face of the upper platform and therewith constitutes the upper flange of the rail, thus layered. The anti-corrosion protection is at least formed of a protective sheet made of a second material more resistant to corrosion than the first material and selected from a metal and a fiber-reinforced plastic composite material. Such a rail exhibits good corrosion resistance for modest cost.

Abstract: A rail for an aircraft floor includes an upper plate for supporting a set of floor panels covering the plate, and a lower stiffening structure. The rail is formed by a beam and by an anticorrosion protection. The beam is at least formed by a body made of a first material and defining the lower stiffening structure and an upper platform. The anticorrosion protection fully covers an upper face of the upper platform and forms therewith the upper plate of the rail, thus layered. The anticorrosion protection is at least formed by a protective sheet made of a second material that is more corrosion resistant than the first material and is selected from a metal and a fiber-reinforced plastic composite material. Such a rail exhibits good corrosion resistance at a moderate cost.
