Rail fast clip Fastening System
A Railway Fast Clip is a threadless, pre-assembled rail fastening system engineered for mechanized track installation and maintenance-free operation . Unlike traditional tension clamps requiring bolted connections, this system features a unique "push-to-lock" mechanism where clips arrive at site already parked on shoulders embedded in the sleeper . After rail placement, a simple lateral or vertical pushing action-performed manually or by automated clipping machines-snaps the spring steel fastener into its working position, delivering automatic tensioning without torque wrenches or threaded components .
Technical Specifications:
| Feature Category | Key Benefit | Common Application |
|---|---|---|
| Factory Pre-Assembly | Eliminates field component handling errors | High-speed main lines |
| Push-to-Lock Mechanism | Four times faster than conventional clipping | Mechanized track laying |
| Common Interface System | Future-proofed for performance upgrades | Ballastless track networks |
| Double Resilience Design | 22.5 kN/m stiffness for vibration control | Metro & slab track systems |
| Tethered Components | Zero loose parts during rail stressing | Tunnels & confined spaces |
| Insulating Gauge Blocks | Electrical isolation with adjustable gauge | Signaling track circuits |
Installation & Maintenance Perspective:
- Complete fastening assemblies arrive at site pre-installed on concrete sleepers from the factory .
- Plastic seal plates integrate into sleeper molds during casting, preventing slurry leakage into shoulders .
- Embedded iron bases are cast directly into sleepers, ensuring precise gauge retention .
- Components remain tethered during rail stressing, eliminating loose parts and loss risks .
- Factory-controlled assembly guarantees consistent positioning impossible with field installation .
Maintenance & Operational Perspective
- Remote-controlled clipping machines operate at speeds exceeding six sleepers per minute .
- Single operator replaces traditional six-person crews, reducing labor costs by over 80% .
- MkII modular machines perform both clipping and unclipping operations with one equipment set .
- CD200 IQ units achieve twenty sleepers per minute with integrated sleeper lift function .
- Push-action mechanism eliminates torque checking, threading, and bolt tensioning procedures .
