Rail Fastenings Systems

Fastclip FE RR

Pandrol’s Fastclip FE RR rail fastening system is designed specifically for extreme heavy haul applications. It is suitable for an axle load of up to 40 tonnes and curve radius down to 150 metres.

 

Fastclip FE RR

Fastclip FE RR sleepers are supplied to the track pre-assembled, with all components held captive and the clips set in parked position.

  • Once the sleepers have been placed and the rail threaded, the clips are simply pushed into the installed position.
  • A recessed rail seat and two-part combined rail pad and insulator help to ensure that the system provides long service life.

Technical features of the Pandrol Fastclip

01

Clip type

The FE RR system uses Pandrol Fastclip FE1505 clips for threadless, self-tensioned fastening.

Mechanisation

Predominantly designed for mechanised track operation, Fastclip FE RR is compatible with a wide range of equipment. However, it is also suitable for manual installation where required.

05

Performance

The standard maximum axle load for the FE RR system is 40 tonnes. The minimum curve radius is 150m.
