9216 Rail Clip – Superior Strength for Heavy-Duty Rail Fixing
The 9126 rail clip is engineered to withstand extreme horizontal forces up to 165kN, delivering precision, reliability, and long-term stability.
Product Overview
The 9216/08/40 Adjustable Crane Rail Clip is designed for the most demanding rail fixation applications. It offers exceptional durability and performance under extreme loads, making it ideal for industrial cranes, gantry systems, and heavy rail infrastructures. Its low-profile design ensures compatibility with guide roller-equipped cranes, providing both safety and efficiency.
Key Features
- Global Track Record: Successfully used worldwide for years, ensuring consistent performance in harsh conditions (e.g., high-vibration rail lines, coastal ports with salt exposure).
- Welded Base Convenience: Clips are welded directly to rail supports—no access from below needed, cutting installation time in hard-to-reach areas like elevated tracks.
- Dual Locking & Self-Tightening: Two main parts lock securely when tightening the Grade 8.8 bolt, plus a built-in self-tightening mechanism prevents loosening under extreme vibration.
- Protective Rubber Block: A special vulcanized rubber block applies controlled force to the rail, avoiding surface scratches and absorbing minor impacts to extend rail life.
- Wide Heavy Rail Compatibility: Designed to fit a range of heavy rail types (QU series, ISCR series, GCR 183, etc.)—ideal for diverse industrial projects.

Simple Installation & Load Capacity
Welding Requirements
- Weld Scope: Weld all around the clip base (except the side closest/parallel to the rail) with a 4mm throat thickness fillet weld.
- Electrode Recommendations: Use low-hydrogen electrodes (AWS E7018 or E7028) to ensure weld strength for heavy-load applications.
- Continuous Weld Option: If a full continuous weld around the base is needed, contact Glory Rail for customized technical guidance.
Tightening & Documentation
- Tightening Torque: 125 Nm (for M16 Grade 8.8 captive bolt) – critical for proper locking and self-tightening performance.
