WJ-8 type fastener system is a kind of ballastless track fastener system developed to meet the technical requirements of passenger line, it is a special fastener system for laying all kinds of non-shoulderless track, which is optimized based on WJ-1 type and WJ-2 type ballastless track fastener system.

The WJ-8 elastic rail clip fastener system is suitable for passenger lines with a maximum axle speed of 350km/h and a CRTSII type ballless track with a shaft weight of 170KN (considering that the axle weight may increase by 10%).
Performance characteristics of WJ-8 railway fastening system

| No. | Item | Performance | ||||
| 1 | Suitable Rail type | Chinese 60kg/m steel rail | ||||
