What are the advantages of steel rail?

Steel rail is the rail infrastructure used in rail transit systems such as railways and trams to support and guide trains. Here are some basic knowledge about rail:

1. Material: The steel rail is usually made of high-quality carbon structural steel, which has high strength and wear resistance, and can withstand the weight of the train and the pressure during operation.

2. Standard model: Steel rail according to the standards of different countries and regions, there are a variety of different models and specifications. Common standard models include international UIC standards, European standards (EN), American standards (AREMA), and Chinese standards (GB/T).

3. Structure: The steel rail usually presents a zigzag cross section, consisting of the rail head, the rail body and the rail bottom. The rail head is the part of the upper part of the track that contacts with the wheel, the rail body is the middle part of the connecting head and the bottom of the rail, and the bottom of the rail is the base part of the support track.

4. Length: The length of the steel rail is usually 12 meters or more, and it can be cut and connected and assembled as needed to adapt to the needs of different railway lines.

5. Features: The steel rail has the characteristics of high strength, good wear resistance, high stability and long service life, which can withstand the heavy load and high speed of the train.

6. Maintenance: The steel rail needs to be regularly inspected and maintained during use, including cleaning up the ash, repairing the damaged part, adjusting the gauge, etc., to ensure the safe and smooth operation of the railway line.

Please note that the specific specifications and models of the steel rail may vary by region and application, and it is recommended to refer to the corresponding standards and requirements in the actual project selection and procurement.
