Rail anchors, also known as rail clips or tie anchors, are positioned beneath the rail base and grip the rail through their curved design. Their sides fit snugly against the sleeper. GNEE RAIL manufactures rail anchors from single-piece formed spring steel, providing exceptional friction, elastic force, and locking power to securely fasten the rail.
During train operation, longitudinal forces are typically applied to the rails, causing vertical movement of the rails and sometimes even displacing the sleepers. This vertical movement is referred to as rail creeping. Rail creeping commonly occurs in sections of double-track railways, the heavily loaded direction of single-track railways, long descending gradients, or train braking zones approaching stations.
Rail anchors are installed directly on the rail base and fit tightly against the sleeper. GNEE RAIL-produced rail anchors provide a larger support surface for both the rail base and sleeper, preventing cutting and abrasion, thereby extending the sleeper's service life. Manufactured according to specific rail weights and base widths, they are categorized into two types: drive-on rail anchors and spring-type rail anchors.
The quality parameters of rail anchor has been produced strictly according to International Standards and large quantity can be provided to customers for largeproduction capacity. GNEE's rail anchors can provide full raise base contact, distribute creeping loading evenly, Eliminate sleeper chewing and climbing.
