E clip railway fastening system is very mature fastening system that can be used in almost all kinds of rail sections for many features. And now E-clip railway fastening systems are widely used in railway projects all over the world. In general, a complete E-clip railway fastening system is composed of two elastic rail clips, two rail shoulders, one rail pad and two rail insulators. Next, we will have a detail introduction of the E-clip railway fastening system and the E-clip railway fastening system components.
