Products Description
18kg steel rails are relatively simple, with a lighter weight and lower cost. For branch lines or industrial and mining railways, the cost savings can better meet economic benefits.
The service life of 18kg steel rails is generally short, especially in situations with heavy traffic and fast train speeds. Due to the high pressure they bear, they are prone to wear and deformation. Therefore, it is suitable for use in areas with lighter loads, rather than on main roads with higher loads and traffic pressure.
This type of steel rail can be used for transporting materials such as ore within mining areas.
In industrial railways, it can be used for internal railway transportation within factories or industrial parks.
It can also be used on light railways, such as some low-speed or short distance transportation systems. Or railway lines used for construction or temporary transportation.

Other Features
Comparison with other steel rails:
Difference from heavy-duty rails: Heavy duty rails (such as 50kg and 60kg rails) are usually used to carry high loads on main or high-speed railways, which require stronger load-bearing capacity and higher wear resistance. In contrast, 18kg steel rails have a smaller load capacity and are suitable for carrying low to moderate loads.
The difference from medium-sized rails: Medium sized rails (such as 30kg and 43kg rails) are generally used in places that require moderate load-bearing capacity. Compared with 18kg rails, they have stronger load-bearing capacity and a wider range of applications.
