Chinese rail standard specifies three types of rails: light rail, heavy rail, crane rail. AGICO has a large amount of stock of railroad tracks for sale. We also provide rails conform to many other rail standards such as American standard, European standard, British standard, Indian standard, Australian standard, Japnese standard, South African standard, and so on.
Light Rail
Light rail weights less than or equal to 30kg per meter.Light rail is used for laying temporary transportation lines and light locomotive lines for forest areas, mining areas, factories, and construction sites.
- Standard: GB11264-89 ; YB222-63 standard
- Size: 9kg, 12kg, 15kg, 18kg, 22kg, 30kg
- Material: 55Q or Q235B
Heavy Rail
Heavy rail weights more than 30kg per meter. Heavy rail is mainly used for passenger and cargo transportation.
- Standard: GB2585-2007
- Size: 43kg, 50kg, 60kg
- Material: U71mn/50mn
Crane Rail
Crane Rail is mainly used for laying tracks for cranes at the ports, wharves, warehouses, etc. Compared with the railway’s heavy rail, crane rail has the characteristic of lower height, wider head, and thicker waist.
- Standard: YB/T5055-93
- Size: QU70\QU80\QU100\QU120
- Material: U71mn
