Steel rail is a critical component in transportation and industrial infrastructure, engineered for high strength, durability, and load-bearing capacity. It is widely used in railways, urban transit, and industrial systems, with specifications tailored to diverse application scenarios‌

Key Typ es and APPLICATIONS

‌Railway Rails

‌Heavy Rail‌: Used in mainline railways, with common weights of 38kg/m, 43kg/m, 50kg/m, 60kg/m, and 75kg/m‌.High-carbon low-alloy steel variants offer enhanced strength, wear resistance, and fatigue resistance compared to carbon steel rails, ensuring long-term performance under heavy loads‌

‌Light Rail‌: Applied in mining, forestry, and light-duty industrial tracks, available in 5kg/m to 24kg/m‌,corrosion-resistant versions, alloyed with copper, chromium, phosphorus, or vanadium, are suitable for underground mines and humid environments‌

‌Specialized Rails‌

‌Conductive Rails‌: Designed for subway systems, requiring high electrical conductivity (resistivity <0.125μΩ·m at 15°C) and made from high-quality low-carbon aluminum-killed steel‌

‌Crane Rails‌: Used in overhead crane and trolley tracks, with models like QU70, QU80, QU100, and QU120‌

Material and Manufacturing

‌Materials‌: Carbon steel and low-alloy steel are primary materials. Low-alloy rails provide superior mechanical properties, including wear resistance, pressure resistance, and brittle fracture resistance

‌Production Focus‌: Strict quality control during manufacturing prevents defects like internal cracks, ensuring structural integrity‌

Standards and Customization

‌Specifications‌: Lengths typically range from 12m to 25m, with customization available for specific project needs‌

‌Global Compliance‌: Manufactured to international and regional standards, supporting applications in railway networks, urban transit (e.g., subways, light rail), and industrial logistics worldwide.
