What is E1813 Rail Elastic Clip?

E1813 rail elastic clip is a specific type of spring steel fastener used in railway tracks to firmly hold the steel rail to the sleepers or baseplates. As a component of the "E-type" series, its main function is to provide a secure, stable connection that prevents the rail from moving, shifting, or deforming. These clips are designed to withstand the repeated stress of passing trains, ensuring track safety and alignment.

• Function: Its primary purpose is to create a strong, elastic fastening that connects the steel rail to its base or tie. It uses a bending force to clamp the rail down, keeping it securely in place.

• Safety and stability: By securing the rail, it prevents the rails from moving horizontally or vertically, which is crucial for the safety and stability of the track. The elastic nature of the clip also helps absorb shock and vibration from passing trains.

• Design and material: E1813 is part of the E-clip family, which are typically made from high-quality spring steel. 

• Maintenance: The design is often self-tensioning and does not require torque checks, simplifying maintenance. The clips are built to withstand fatigue, corrosion, and high impact loads during their service life.

Elastic rail clips manufacturing process

The raw material for rail clip production is the spring steel bar, which should be sheared as per the length required. The sheared rods are heated to 950 ℃ to 1000 ℃, and then the heated bar is transferred to the power press for forging. Place the forged rail clamp into the quenching tank. After checking the dimensional accuracy and quenching hardness of the rail clamp, tempering it to achieve the appropriate toughness in the spring. The final product is packaged after strict inspection.
