How to purchase suitable E Type Elastic Rail Clips?

 

Procuring suitable E-type elastic rail clips requires a systematic approach. The initial and crucial step is to precisely confirm the technical specifications. You must identify the specific clip model required, such as E2055 or E2001, as these models correspond to different structural dimensions and clamping forces.

Model Diameter Material Under Pressure HRC Weight
E1609 Ø 16mm 60Si2MnA ≥950kg 44-48 0.43kg/pc
E1809 Ø 20mm 60Si2MnA ≥950kg 44-48 0.61kg/pc
E1813 Ø 18mm 60Si2MnA ≥950kg 44-48 0.62kg/pc
E2001 Ø 20mm 60Si2MnA ≥950kg 44-48 0.80kg/pc
E2009 Ø 20mm 60Si2MnA ≥950kg 44-48 0.80kg/pc
E2039 Ø 20mm 60Si2MnA ≥950kg 44-48 0.80kg/pc
E2007 Ø 20mm 60Si2MnA ≥950kg 44-48 0.80kg/pc
E2055 Ø 20mm 60Si2MnA ≥950kg 44-48 0.80kg/pc
E2056 Ø 20mm 60Si2MnA ≥950kg 44-48 0.80kg/pc
E2063 Ø 20mm 60Si2MnA ≥950kg 44-48 0.80kg/pc

 

Concurrently, it is essential to confirm the rail type the clip needs to fit, for instance, 60kg/m or UIC60, to ensure perfect compatibility with the rail foot. The application environment is also a key consideration; determining whether the clip will be used in a "separated" or "non-separated" fastening system is necessary, as this directly affects the clip's interaction with the shoulder or baseplate.

A thorough assessment of the project's specific requirements and operating environment is equally indispensable. If the railway line passes through coastal areas, industrial zones, or humid environments, priority should be given to clips with special surface treatments like zinc plating or oxide blackening to significantly enhance their corrosion resistance. For demanding applications such as heavy-haul or high-speed railways, it is critical to evaluate whether the clip's fatigue life and longitudinal keeping power meet the higher design standards.

Selecting a qualified and reliable supplier is the final, vital link for ensuring procurement success. An excellent supplier should possess comprehensive quality certifications and stable production capacity, enabling them to provide detailed technical data and test reports. Furthermore, the supplier's technical support and after-sales service are directly related to the smooth progression and long-term operation of the project.
