Take you to know steel rail

Steel 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 transfer it to the rail sleepers.  Steel  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.  Steel 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 locomotive and rolling stock. standard rail for railway

The section shape of the steel rail adopts an I-shaped section with the best bending resistance and consists of a rail head, a rail waist and a rail bottom.  The rail cross section is I-shaped.

Light rail: mainly used for laying temporary transportation lines and light locomotive lines in forest areas, mining areas, factories and construction sites.

Heavy rail: rail with nominal weight greater than 30kg per meter.  Rails for trains and cranes are both heavy rails. standard rail for railway

Railway rails are used for laying railways. They need to bear the pressure, impact load and friction during the operation of trains, and require sufficient strength and certain toughness.  The quality requirements are strict. In addition to ensuring its chemical composition, it is also required to inspect mechanical properties, drop hammer test and acid leaching macrostructure, etc.

Crane rail: its height is low and its head width and waist thickness are large, which is used for laying crane and trolley tracks. standard rail for railway
