Description

Rail clip is a component of railway fastening systems. It is used to fix the railroad track to the underlying baseplate and sleepers. The clamping force by rail clips helps to maintain the gauge and prevent the rail from moving in the vertical and horizontal direction relative to the sleeper. One extensively used type of rail clip is an elastic rail clip made of hot-pressed spring steel. Its energy produced at elastic deformation can alleviate the vibration and shock when trains move.

TECHNICAL SUPPORT

Rail clips are used with railway sleepers to fix the rails on both sides. Rail clips are usually made of forged spring steel and manufactured by hot forging process.
