Fastclip FE RR sleepers are supplied to the track pre-assembled, with all components held captive and the clips set in parked position.
The Fastclip FE RR system has been specifically designed to provide exceptional performance in extreme heavy haul applications.
Delivered pre-assembled on the sleeper, the FE RR system’s captive fastenings and compatibility with mechanised equipment ensure efficient track construction and maintenance.
The unique Pandrol ‘switch on-switch off’ function enables fast and efficient track installation and reduced maintenance costs.
The system’s recessed rail seat and two-part combined rail pad and insulator ensure that components have a significantly longer life than other fastening systems.
The FE RR system uses Pandrol Fastclip FE1505 clips for threadless, self-tensioned fastening.
The clips are supplied in the parked position, held securely but not intruding into the rail seat. They can then be switched quickly and easily into the installed position.
Sleepers are supplied to the track construction site as pre-assembled units, with captive fastenings and no loose components.
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.
The standard maximum axle load for the FE RR system is 40 tonnes. The minimum curve radius is 150m.
The SD-HH fastening system is quick and efficient to instal with few tools and minimal training.
The modern heavy haul railway is a demanding environment, with high locomotive horsepower, dynamic braking, large rail sections and high mega gross tonnes per year.
The DRS baseplate is a double-resilience e-clip fastening system that is ideal for use on non-ballasted tracks when ground-borne noise and vibration reduction are required.
Pandrol Fastclip is an established, highly-regarded resilient, threadless rail fastening. Over the years, the Fastclip family has grown to include the FC, FD, FE Fastclip products, each of which has been designed to meet the technical and commercial demands of a specific area.
The rail seat assembly is typically made up of two tension clamps (SKL clips) on top of angled guide plates on each side of the rail.
NABLA Evolution is a direct rail fastening system that offers enhanced performance for tracks with tight radius curves. It has been proven in installations for several decades and is recognised for its simple installation and maintenance. By maintaining the track gauge, it significantly increases the life expectancy of assembly components.
