Type E Clip Models & Specifications
The model designation, such as E20, primarily refers to the nominal wire diameter of the clip. Different diameters provide different levels of clamping force and fatigue resistance for various applications.
| Model | Wire Diameter (mm) | Applicable Rail Type | Key Characteristics & Application |
|---|---|---|---|
| E20 | 20 | 60 kg/m, 75 kg/m | Heavy-Duty. Provides the highest clamping force. Used for heavy-haul lines, sharp curves, and high-speed sections requiring extra security. |
| E18 | 18 | 60 kg/m | Standard Duty. The most common type used on mainlines for both passenger and freight traffic in China. |
| E16 | 16 | 50 kg/m | Medium Duty. Used for 50 kg/m rail sections, often on secondary lines or with older sleeper types. |
| E14 | 14 | 50 kg/m | Light Duty. Provides lower clamping force. Used for sidings, station tracks, and light-traffic areas. |
General Technical Specifications:
- Material: Spring Steel (e.g., 60Si2MnA, 55Si2Mn)
- Heat Treatment: Quenched & Tempered
- Surface Finish: Epoxy Resin Coating (typically orange/yellow) or Dacromet Coating for superior corrosion resistance.
- Function: To generate a constant toe load (clamping force) on the rail foot, preventing longitudinal and lateral movement.
