What is the steel rail used for?  Where is it used?  What is the length?  Let's go on and look down together.

Rail is the main component of railway track.  Its function is to guide the wheels of locomotive and rolling stock to move forward, bear the huge pressure of the wheels, and transmit it to the sleepers.  Rails must provide continuous, smooth and minimum resistance rolling surfaces for wheels.  In electrified railway or automatic block section, the rail can also be used as track circuit.  Rail is rolled from carbon killed steel smelted by open hearth furnace and oxygen converter.  Its purpose is to bear the running pressure and impact load of locomotives and vehicles. heavy rail suppliers zongxiang

The following is an introduction to the length of the rail.

The standard lengths of rails in China are 12.5m and 25.0m m.  Extra-heavy and heavy rails shall be 25.0m standard length rails, and other types of rails may be 12.5m or 25.0m two standard length rails.  The standard rail length of China's high-speed passenger dedicated line (considering freight transportation) is 100m. heavy rail suppliers zongxiang

There are three kinds of curve shortened rail lengths 40, 80 and 120mm shorter than 12.5m standard rail and three kinds of curve shortened rail lengths 40, 80 and 160mm shorter than 25.0m standard rail.
