In railway system, steel rails have the function to support the locomotive direction of train vehicles. And the elastic railway clip is the part to fasten the steel rails on the railway sleepers.
Through bending and deformation, elastic railway clips can fasten the steel rails, and prevent the horizontal and vertical movement of the rails. Elastic railway clip can keep the certain rail gauge, which insures the safety of railway transportation. Because of the rigid contact of steel rails and wheels, inevitable vibrations generated. While the elastic railway clip can reduce the vibration and absorb the impact energy. Elastic railway clips often work under repeated and alternating stresses, they should bear bending, torsion, fatigue and corrosion. When the train vehicle passing through, elastic railway clips should sustain transient impact.
