A coal mining operation deep in the Appalachian Mountains of the United States is facing unprecedented challenges in its underground operations. As the mining depth increases, traditional transportation systems are no longer able to meet the increasing safety and efficiency requirements. So the company began looking for a stronger, more reliable rail solution.

The company's purchasing manager found our official website and, after browsing our extensive rail product line, decided to leave an advisory message. "We need a steel rail that can maintain stable performance under harsh conditions to ensure the safety and efficiency of coal transportation," he said. After receiving the customer's information, our sales team immediately responded and actively contacted the customer. Through an in-depth analysis of the company's operating environment and transportation requirements, we recommended that the customer use 12kg rail to meet their special needs.

12kg light rail can be used in brick factories, processing plants, coal mines, engineering machinery, equipment, etc., commonly found in the slide of the brick factory trolley, the slide of the transfer of the workpiece trolley, bearing 1 to 3 tons.

The following is a detailed introduction to it:

1. Specifications dimension

rail height: 69.85mm

Bottom width: 69.85mm

Head width: 38.1mm

waist thickness: 7.54mm

Material: Q235B

Theoretical weight kg/m: 12.2

2. Material and performance

 Material: Q235 and other common carbon steel material, this material has good physical and mechanical properties, can meet the light rail in load, pressure resistance, wear resistance and other requirements. Physical properties: Taking Q235 material as an example, its physical properties data usually include key indicators such as yield strength (ReH/MPa ?275), tensile strength (Rm/MPa ?430) and elongation (A/% ?34), which ensure the stability and safety of the rail during use.

3. Application  

Light Rail system: widely used in urban light rail, tram, subway and other light rail systems, providing an important guarantee for the safe and efficient operation of these systems.

Temporary transport lines: In forest areas, mining areas, factories and construction sites are often used to lay temporary transport lines to meet the needs of flexible and convenient transport methods in these areas.

Line for light locomotives: For light locomotives, this type of rail is of moderate weight, easy to install and maintain, and is one of the ideal track materials.

4. Advantages

Light and flexible: compared with the traditional heavy rail, it is lighter and more flexible, and can better adapt to the curve and slope changes of urban roads.

Energy saving and environmental protection: Due to its lightweight characteristics, this type of rail can reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions during production and transportation, in line with the concept of energy saving and environmental protection in modern society.

 Cost effective: Although the carrying capacity of light rail is relatively low, its cost is also relatively low, and it is cost-effective for transportation lines that require frequent replacement or temporary laying.

After our detailed introduction, the customer had a better understanding of the nature of the rail and decided to adopt our solution. After determining the final rail type, we quickly started the production process. In order to ensure timely delivery, we adopted an efficient logistics solution to ensure that the rail can arrive in the United States on time. Throughout the process, we also provided detailed installation guidelines and technical support, which helped the company successfully complete the track laying work. A few months later, we received feedback from Jack: "Since the replacement of the new rail, our transportation efficiency has improved significantly, which we believe will bring long-term benefits to our business."
