The rail elastic clips (also called rail clip, elastic rail clip )are used with railway sleeper to fasten rails on both sides. The rail clips are usually made of forged spring steel, which are manufactured by hot forging process. The forged rail clips are considered to be better than other metal forming process due to most uniform microstructure.
For meeting various needs of clients, We supplies E-clips, PR clip, SKL clips, Russia rail clip, Deenik clip, Nabla spring blade, KPO rail calmp, gantrex rail clips, fast clip, crane rail clip and other special clips for rails. We have proffesional production cline to design and manufacture standard rail clips or nonstandard clips. welcome to as.
How does the rail clips works
Rail clips produce buckling force on the track through the bending and distortion of the rail clips, which effectively guarantees the reliable connection between the rails for a long time, maintains the integrity of the track as much as possible, prevents the rail from moving in the vertical and horizontal directions relative to the sleeper, and ensures the rail The distance is normal to ensure the safety of rail vehicles. In addition, because the train wheels and the rails are in rigid contact, vibration is unavoidable. The special elastic structure of rail clips also allows them to absorb the impact energy generated when vehicles pass by, and achieve the effect of shock absorption. Rail clips work under repeated alternating stresses. They bear various effects such as bending, torsion, fatigue and corrosion. When vehicles pass, they also bear extremely high instantaneous impact loads, so the performance requirements of rail clips are very strict.

What is Rail Elastic Clip?
Elastic Clip for SKL 14 Fastening System
Rail elastic clip is one of the popular fastening parts to keep rail track fixed on rail sleepers(wooden sleeper and concrete sleeper). Rail clamps are also used in some rail fastening systems.
YONGYANG railway supplies elastic rail clips with high precision, high tensile strength and corrosion resistance, which are used widely in railway projects all over the world.
YONGYANG as the largest rail clip and clamp production base in China, which has been qualified to tender medium and large scaled railway projects. In addition, YONGYANG is approved elastic rail clip manufacturer by China's Railway Ministry and has been ISO9001-2008 certified. Our rail clip product is ideal for rail track assembly for advantages of easy fitment while track laying; economical maintenance; long durability and lifespan; fast replacement.

Elastic Rail Clips Manufacturing Process
Based on the process production, elastic rail clip manufacture process include following steps: raw material- shearing- heating- forming- hardening- tempering- inspection- packing.
Raw Material for Elastic Rail Clip
Elastic rail clips are made of high quality spring steel bar. spring steel is used in the manufacture of springs and other elastic parts prominently in automotive and industrial suspension applications. These steels are generally low-alloy Manganese, medium-carbon steel or high-carbon steel with a very high yield strength. Spring steel has excellent comprehensive performance like mechanical properties, performance by the bullet-proof, fatigue, hardenability, physical and chemical properties. The raw materials of elastic railroad clip mostly include 55 Si7, 60 Si7, 65 Si7, 55 Si Cr7, 60Si2MnA, 60Si2CrA, 55Si2Mn, and 38Si7 grade of spring steel.
