Detailed Product Description
The Pandrol Type Rail-to-Sleeper Fastening System is a critical component in modern railway track construction. It securely holds the rail to the sleeper, maintaining gauge and transmitting vertical and lateral forces to the track structure. Our system is characterized by its simple yet robust clip design – a single-piece elastic clip that provides consistent clamping force without the need for nuts or bolts. This design reduces assembly time and minimizes the risk of loosening due to vibrations.
The 12kN clamping force is carefully calibrated to ensure adequate rail hold-down while allowing for thermal expansion and contraction. This balance is crucial for preventing rail creep and buckling, especially in high-speed or heavy-haul lines. The 1435mm gauge is the most widely used standard worldwide, making our system easily interchangeable with existing infrastructure. For projects requiring non-standard gauges, we offer customization services to match your specific track dimensions.
Our anti-corrosion treatment is a multi-step process that includes degreasing, acid pickling, and zinc coating (either electroplating or hot-dip galvanizing). This ensures a protective layer that withstands saline, humid, and chemically aggressive environments. In coastal areas, tunnels, or industrial zones, our fasteners maintain their integrity for decades, significantly reducing lifecycle costs.
The spring steel material (60Si2Mn) is chosen for its excellent elastic limit, fatigue strength, and toughness. Each clip is heat-treated and shot-peened to relieve internal stresses and enhance durability. Our quality control includes 100% dimensional inspection and random clamping force testing to ensure every batch meets the specified performance.
We also offer complete sets including clips, shoulders, insulators, and tie plates, all compatible with concrete, wood, or steel sleepers. Custom packaging (bulk, pallet, or box) is available to suit your logistics preferences.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
Q: What is the exact clamping force of this system?
A: The nominal clamping force is 12kN. However, minor variations may occur due to manufacturing tolerances. We can provide test certificates for each batch upon request. -
Q: Can this system be used for concrete sleepers?
A: Yes, it is compatible with concrete, wood, and steel sleepers. The appropriate shoulder and insulator components are selected based on the sleeper type. -
Q: What is the recommended surface treatment for coastal environments?
A: For coastal or highly corrosive environments, we recommend hot-dip galvanizing (HDG) which provides superior protection compared to standard zinc plating. Please specify your requirement when ordering. -
Q: Are samples available for testing?
A: Yes, we offer free samples for evaluation (shipping costs may apply). Contact our sales team to arrange a sample order. -
Q: What is the lead time for large orders?
A: Typical lead time is 15–30 days after order confirmation, depending on quantity and customization. We can expedite urgent orders if needed. -
Q: Do you provide technical support for installation?
A: Absolutely. We provide installation manuals, videos, and can arrange remote or on-site guidance for large projects. -
Q: Can you customize the clip for different rail profiles?
A: Yes, we can adjust the clip dimensions and foot shape to match various rail profiles (e.g., 50kg, 60kg, or UIC standards). Please provide your rail specification. -
Q: Is this product compliant with international standards?
A: Our design follows the common Pandrol pattern widely used in the industry. Specific compliance with national standards (e.g., AREMA, EN, GB) can be discussed based on your requirements.
