115RE Rail
Type: Heavy Rail
Steel Grade: U71Mn
Standard: AREMA
Certification: ISO CE
115RE rail has a standard profile according to AREMA (The American Railway Engineering and Maintenance-of-Way Association). Its nominal weight is 56.9kg/m equivalent to 115 pounds per yard. So, it is also called 115lb rail. As a type of heavy rail, it is mainly used for mining tracks because of its high strength. 115RE rail is heat-treated to control the hardness and strength of the steel. This is thanks to the heat treatment controls of the cooling rate and therefore controls the microstructure.
115RE rail has better performances in hardness, strength, wear-resistance, and corrosion resistance than many other railroad tracks. It can improve the service life of iron mine, coal mine, and other heavy haul railway lines. It is favored by domestic and foreign users and has maintained good market sales.
115RE Rail Profile
AGICO maintains a large inventory of 115RE rail. 115RE rail has higher strength, higher hardness, higher fracture resistance, and lower deformation.
We also provide other types of American standard rails of various sizes.
AGICO has more than 60 years of experience in manufacturing and supplying railroad tracks and other track materials. Don’t hesitate to ask for the drawing and price of the product.
