Oct 27, 2025 Leave a message

The SKL 12 elastic rail clip is a classic model from the German Vossloh fastening system, widely used for securing rails on concrete sleepers. Made of high-tensile spring steel and coated with protective color painting, it offers excellent corrosion resistance and long fatigue life, suitable for various railway track gauges.
