The E2000 rail clip is a heavy-duty, self-tensioning elastic spring steel clip used to secure rails to concrete or wooden sleepers. Widely utilized in high-speed, heavy-haul, and conventional railway systems, E2000 rail clip ensures durable alignment, absorbs vibrations, and accommodates axle loads up to 40 tonnes.
Kunshan Signum Machinery Technology Co., Ltd. Specializes in offering E2000 rail clips for Railway Fastening according to our customer's specific requirements.
The E2000, developed as part of the established Pandrol "e-Clip" series, functions by securing the rail foot through a threadless, self-tensioning mechanism.
Design: E2000 clip resembles a sideways letter "E" and is manufactured from high-strength spring steel.
Clamping Force: E2000 clip generates a high nominal toe load (frequently reaching up to 1,250 kgf).
Anti-Creep: The clip's design generates the necessary clamping force to resist rail creep and twisting, making it highly effective on continuously welded tracks.
A typical E2000 fastening assembly consists of the following elements:
Two E2000 Rail Clips: The primary elastic elements that hold the rail.
Rail Shoulders: Cast-iron or ductile-iron components, which are embedded in the concrete sleeper or base plate, to hold the clip in place.
Rail Pad: An elastic pad positioned under the rail to absorb vertical pressure, dampen noise, and reduce track wear.
Rail Insulators: Placed between the clip and the rail, these components maintain track gauge electrically and prevent direct metal-on-metal contact.
Due to its robust toe load and secure grip, the E2000 is regularly installed in:
High-Speed Railways: E2000 Rail Clip system provides the rigidity and stability required for high-velocity train transit.
Heavy-Haul Freight Networks: E2000 Rail Clip system holds up securely against the heavy axle loads typical in freight.
Turnouts & Special Applications: The specialized E-series designs are frequently used in complex track switches to prevent loosening.
