Rail Clips

Railroad clips are used to fasten the rail together with the concrete sleepers to the base plate below. Usually rail clips are made of forged spring steel, which is produced by a hot forging process. Forged clips are considered superior to other metal forming processes due to their uniform microstructure.

Kingrail Parts offers a wide range of high quality rail clips which are designed with high precision and made of high quality spring steel. Kingrail Parts has more than 20 years of railroad clip production experience, and has become the largest and most competitive rail clip production base in China, with the qualification to tender for large and medium-sized rail projects nationwide. What's more, our rail clips can be customized according to customers' requirements.

The production of rail clips is usually made of spring steel bars, which must be cut to the required length before heating. They are then heated to 950°C to 1000°C, and the next job transfers the heated bars to a power press for forging, keeping three sets of dies and fixtures according to the drawings, and then hammering. The following procedure is to transport the forged rail clips to the quench tank. Then check the dimensional accuracy and quench hardness of the railroad clip. The next procedure is tempering to achieve proper toughness in the spring. The final step is to wrap the rail clip after careful inspection.
