What kind of reused rail is considered scrap?

As we all know, reusable steel rails are specially used for manufacturing heavy rail, light rail and crane rail.  Its use can ensure the continuity of the railway track and the quality of the rail itself. The quality of the rail directly affects the operation and safety of the railway track.  In general, rail can be scrapped as long as the following four conditions are met:

1) Rails approved and eliminated by the railway department.

2) The side loss exceeds the provisions of Grade II of the railway and cannot be adjusted for use.crane rail suppliers

3) If the damaged part of each rail is less than 8m and cannot be treated by welding or short rail, it needs to be scrapped.

4) Because the rail needs to bear the pressure, friction and impact load of the locomotive, it requires sufficient strength, hardness and toughness with high quality requirements.  Therefore, those rails that have reached the standard of serious corrosion or internal dark injury should be eliminated immediately.crane rail suppliers

Therefore, in order to avoid the situation that the rail is scrapped but not found, it is necessary for railway staff to check the rail on the railway track frequently. Only regular inspection and maintenance of the rail can ensure the normal operation of the railway and further ensure the personal safety of passengers.  Users should replace the used rail in time.
