Steel rail, also called rail track, steel track, is the main component of railway track. Its function is to guide the wheels of the locomotive, bear the great pressure of the wheel, and keep the stability of railway transportation.
The 60kg/m rail section is a common railway track material extensively utilized in railway construction and maintenance.
According to international standards, standard 60kg/m rails have a total length of 25 meters, the rail head height is 172 mm, the web width is 150 mm, the base width is 150 mm, and the base thickness is 70 mm. Additionally, these running rails conform to the standard gauge of 1435 mm.
