Main types of steel rails

 

Steel rails are key components used on railways to support and guide train operations. Depending on their purpose and load-bearing capacity, they are mainly divided into heavy rails, light rails, and special purpose crane rails.

Main types of steel rails

 

1. Heavy rail:

 

Heavy rail is mainly used for railway main lines, with a large load-bearing capacity and fast operating speed. According to the weight per meter, heavy rails can be divided into different models, such as the commonly used 50kg/m, 60kg/m, 75kg/m in China. These models of steel rails have high strength and wear resistance, which can meet the needs of high-speed and heavy-duty railway transportation.

 

2. Light rail:

 

Light rail is mainly used for internal transportation in urban rail transit, mines, factories, etc., with a relatively small carrying capacity. There are various models and specifications of light rail, commonly including 38kg/m, 43kg/m, etc. They are lighter compared to heavy rails, but also have reduced strength and wear resistance.

 

3. Crane rail:

 

This type of rail is specifically designed for cranes and other equipment, with high strength and wear resistance, and can withstand the enormous pressure and friction generated by the crane during movement. Common crane rail models include QU70, QU80, QU100, and QU120.

43kg heavy rail is a type of railway track with a weight of 43 kilograms per meter, belonging to heavy rail. This type of rail design is used to withstand large loads and is commonly found in high-speed railways, long-distance railways, and other railway systems that require high load-bearing capacity. 43kg steel rails are suitable for railway lines with heavy loads and frequent transportation, and have high strength, wear resistance, and long-term stability.
