What is the weight of an ERC rail clip?
Elastic rail clip is one of the common railway fasteners in the railway system. In general, elastic rail clip is made of forged spring steel and has many applications. No matter as a part of rail fastening system or as a rail fastener, elastic rail clip is used with other railway track parts, such as railroad spike, rail pad, tie plate and plastic dowel.
For different applications and national standards, elastic rail clips can be classified into various types, including rail e- clip, SKL rail clips, Nabla rail clip, Deenik clip, crane rail clip, Russia rail clip as well as other standard rail clips.

What's the function of rail clip?
Rail track supports vehicle and is fixed to the railway sleeper by rail fastening system. As the core part of rail fastening system, the bending and distortion of rail clip will produce crimping force on the rail track, which ensure the reliable connection between rail tracks and keep the integrity of rail track. Besides, the rigid contact of vehicle and rail track will cause vibration, the elastic structure of rail clip can absorb the impact energy during the train operation, reduce the shocking. The elastic rail clip works under the repeated alternating stress. It bears various effects such as bending, torsion, fatigue and corrosion. When the vehicle passes, it also bears extremely high instantaneous impact load.
