PR Rail Clip Key Features and Benefits

 

Effective Longitudinal Restraint:

The design ensures the rail does not slide longitudinally due to thermal expansion or dynamic train forces, preventing track buckling or rail breaks.

01

High Clamp Force:

Each clip provides a substantial clamping force, typically up to 2,000 pounds (about 10kN of nominal toe load).

02

Versatility:

The system is compatible with a range of sleeper types, including concrete, wood, and slab track applications.

03

Ease of Installation:

The clips can be maneuvered and installed using manual tools or specialized mechanical equipment, reducing track construction and maintenance times.

04

Durability:

Manufactured from high-grade spring steel, they offer a long fatigue life of up to 3 to 5 million cycles without breaking.

PR Rail Clip Material Types

 
 
01
 

Cast carbon steel

The cast steel is made of charcoal as the main alloy element with a small amount of other elements. Carbon content of less than 0.2 percent is cast low-carbon steel, carbon 0.2 ~ 0.5 percent is casting carbon steel, more than 0.5% of which is high carbon steel. With the increase of carbon content, the strength of cast carbon steel increases and the hardness increases. Cast steel with high strength, good plasticity and toughness, the characteristics of low cost, used in heavy machinery parts, mill tripod, big load, such as hydraulic base used in railway vehicle manufacturing large and carrier effect components, such as intensity, side frame, wheels and coupler, etc.

 
02
 

Cast alloy steel

Cast steel with manganese, chromium, copper and other alloy elements. The total amount of the alloy element is generally less than 5%, which can have higher impact hardness and better mechanical properties through heat treatment. The performance of casting alloy steel is better than carbon steel, which can reduce the quality of parts and improve life.

 
03
 

Cast special steel

In order to meet the special needs of alloy steel cast steel, a wide range, which usually contains one or more high alloy elements to achieve special performance.Containing 11% ~ 14% of manganese, for example, can impact wear, high manganese steel is mainly used in mechanical mining, engineering, machine parts, durable, chromium or nickel chromium as the main elements of alloy, with a wide range of stainless steel, corrosion or high temperature above 650 ℃ condition of artifacts, such as chemical, pump, valve shell, such as containers or large capacity power plant steam turbine casing.

Process of PR Rail Clip

 

 

 

Selecting of Raw Material: We choose premium strong strength grade steel as raw material for producing rail clip, the steel is reliable and from certified long term producer.

 
 

Shearing: The spring steel need to be sheered to specified length.

 
 

Heating: The sheared rods are heated to the 950 ℃ to 1000 ℃, but the workers must pay attention to check the decarburization.

 
 

Forming: The heated bar is transferred to power press for forging, and then be transported to the quenching tank for quenching and tempering.

 
 

Inspection: The clips are checked for the dimensional accuracy and quench hardness by the inspection facility.

 
 

Surface Treatment: The surface can be oiled or other color according to the requirement of customers.

FAQ

 

 

Q: What materials are PR rail clips made of?

A: PR rail clips are usually made from high-strength materials such as carbon steel, alloy steel, or stainless steel. These materials are chosen for their ability to withstand heavy loads, resist corrosion, and endure harsh environmental conditions.

Q: How do PR rail clips work?

A: PR rail clips work by applying force to hold the rail firmly in place on the tie. The clip is designed to fit into a groove on the rail base and, when installed, it holds the rail securely while allowing for slight movements caused by temperature changes.

Q: Are PR rail clips suitable for heavy traffic areas?

A: PR rail clips are specifically designed to handle the heavy loads and dynamic forces typical in high-traffic railway systems. They are commonly used on mainline tracks and other high-traffic areas where stability and durability are critical.
