Types of GB Heavy Rail

 

 

50KG Heavy Rail

 

50kg heavy rail
Parameter Description
Load - bearing Range Suitable for trains with relatively light axle loads, generally can bear trains with an axle load of less than 20 tons.
Wear Resistance Weaker wear resistance compared to heavier rails; prone to faster wear under high - frequency use.
Service Life Under normal maintenance, the service life is about 10 - 15 years.
Main Applications Some station tracks, freight - only lines, and railway branches with low traffic volumes.

60KG Heavy Rail

 

Parameter Description
Load - bearing Range Can meet the daily operation requirements of conventional - speed railways, and can bear trains with an axle load of about 20 - 25 tons.
Wear Resistance Good wear resistance and excellent fatigue resistance, effectively reducing wear caused by long - term rolling.
Service Life Under normal working conditions, the service life is about 15 - 20 years.
Main Applications Railway main lines (accounting for over 90%), and some high - speed railway station tracks; suitable for both passenger and freight transport.

75KG Heavy Rail

 

 

75kg rail
Parameter Description
Load - bearing Range Specifically designed for heavy - haul railways, can bear trains with an axle load of more than 25 tons, even high - axle - load heavy - haul trains.
Wear Resistance Excellent wear resistance; low wear degree even under the frequent rolling of high - axle - load trains.
Service Life With proper maintenance, the service life can exceed 20 years.
Main Applications Heavy - haul railways, such as the Datong - Qinhuangdao Coal Transport Line.
