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, GNEE RAIL 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.
The SKL series railroad clips, also known as gauge clamps or tension clamps, are critical components in modern railway track systems. They are designed to securely fasten rails to concrete sleepers or base plates. The series includes models such as SKL1, SKL3, SKL12, and SKL14, widely used in high-speed railways, metros, heavy-haul lines, and urban transit systems.
