W116 Rail Clip – Reliable Fixing for Heavy-Duty Rail Systems

W116 rail clip is engineered to withstand horizontal forces up to 130kN, delivering precision, durability, and long-term reliable performance.

Product Overview

W116 rail clip is an adjustable crane rail fastening system designed for heavy-duty applications. It withstands side loads up to 130kN while allowing 18mm horizontal adjustment for precise rail alignment. Compact and low-profile, it ensures safe, efficient crane operations in ports, warehouses, and industrial plants.

Its durable design with vulcanized rubber block reduces vibration and rail wear, providing long service life and reliable performance under demanding conditions.

Proven Features for Heavy Rail Stability

Global Reliability: Successfully used worldwide for years, ensuring consistent performance in harsh environments (e.g., high-vibration rail lines, coastal ports).
Welded Base Convenience: Clips are welded directly to rail supports—no access from below needed, cutting installation time in hard-to-reach areas.
Dual Locking Mechanism: Two main parts lock securely when tightening the Grade 8.8 bolt, plus a self-tightening design prevents loosening under vibration.
Protective Rubber Block: A special vulcanized rubber block applies controlled force to the rail, avoiding scratches and absorbing minor impacts.
Flexible Assembly: Multiple minimum assembly width options (W/V/U) adapt to diverse rail installation requirements.

W116 Rail Clip Components

Component Number	Component Name	Key Function
1	Flange Nut	Secures the assembly, working with the self-tightening mechanism for long-term stability.
2	Forging Steel Clip	High-strength forged steel resists bending and wear under 130kN horizontal force.
3	Vulcanized Rubber Block	Applies controlled pressure to protect rail surfaces and dampen vibration.
4	Weldable Base	Weldable-grade steel base enables direct support attachment—no below access required.
5	M16 Captive Bolt	Grade 8.8 bolt ensures secure locking of the clip’s two main parts.

Simple Installation & Precise Torque Guidelines

Welding Requirements

Weld Scope: Weld all around the clip base (except the bolt position) with a 5mm throat thickness fillet weld. Note: For rails without pad, omit the weld closest to/parallel with the rail.
Electrode Recommendations: Use low-hydrogen electrodes (AWS E7018 or E7028) for durable, load-bearing welds.
Custom Weld Guidance: For complex setups, contact GloryRail for personalized welding support.

Tightening & Documentation

Tightening Torque: 200 Nm (for M16 Grade 8.8 captive bolt) – critical for proper locking performance.
