Application description

Widely used in railway transportation systems (high-speed rail, heavy-haul lines, metro, tramways), industrial plants (crane rails, transfer tracks), mining railways, port handling tracks, and temporary construction lines. The high strength and wear resistance ensure safe, smooth train operation under heavy dynamic loads. Suitable for various track types: mainline, turnout, crane, and mine tracks.

Production description

High-carbon or alloy steel billet is heated to 1150–1250°C, then hot rolled through roughing and finishing mills to form the T-shaped profile (head, web, foot). The rail is cooled under controlled conditions to prevent internal stresses, then straightened, cut to length, and end-drilled if required. Surface and dimensional inspections are performed before packing.

Shipping Packaging

For export, steel rails are bundled with wooden separators between layers, secured with multiple steel straps, fitted with end protectors, and packed on steel or wooden sleepers. Labels include grade, profile, length, quantity, and heat number for safe sea freight.

FAQ

1. How to store steel rails to prevent rust and bending?

Store on level, dry ground on wooden or steel sleepers, keep rails elevated to avoid water pooling. Stack with separators between layers to prevent pressure marks. For long-term storage, apply rust preventive oil and keep under cover. Avoid stacking heavy objects on rails to maintain straightness. Surface rust is common and can be removed by grinding before use.

2. What is the difference between U71Mn and U75V rail grades?

U71Mn is a standard carbon-manganese rail with good wear resistance, suitable for light to medium traffic and lower speed lines (≤160 km/h). U75V contains vanadium, offering higher hardness and better wear resistance, ideal for heavy-haul and high-speed lines (≤250 km/h). For heavy-duty applications, choose U75V or head-hardened grades like R350HT.

3. Can steel rails be welded on site?

Yes. Common methods include flash butt welding (most reliable), aluminothermic (thermite) welding (flexible for field repairs), or gas pressure welding. Flash butt welding is recommended for mainline tracks to ensure uniform strength. For field repairs or turnout connections, thermite welding is widely used. Always follow proper preheating and post-weld cooling procedures.
