50kg Rail
Product Overview
Gloryrail strictly complies with GB/T 2585-2017 Hot-Rolled Rails for Railway Applications to deliver high-performance 50kg rails, engineered as the core material for global heavy-haul transportation. Manufactured via hot-rolling and optional heat treatment, its reinforced cross-section (152mm height, 132mm base width) ensures exceptional resistance to bending and fatigue. With a theoretical weight of 50.514kg/m and standard lengths of 6/24 meters (customizable).

Key features
GB Heavy Rail Standard Compliance
Rail height tolerance: ±0.6mm; length tolerance for fixed lengths: ±20mm
Bolt hole positioning accuracy: ≤0.5mm, ensuring seamless compatibility with national railway accessories (fishplates, fasteners).
Defect-free surface (no cracks/folds); hardness uniformity on the rail head tread ≤5HBW, satisfying wheel-rail contact mechanics for high-speed trains and heavy freight.
Superior Material Performance
U71Mn High-Carbon Steel (Standard)
Tensile strength ≥880MPa; Brinell hardness 260–300HBW.
Normalized pearlitic structure improves fatigue crack resistance by 20% vs. common carbon steel.
Advanced Surface Strengthening
Rail Head Quenching (Optional)
Medium-frequency induction quenching forms a hardened layer (depth ≥20mm) with hardness ≥350HBW in the top 30mm of the rail head, extending service life for lines.
Composite Anti-Corrosion Coating

Applications
National Mainlines & High-Speed Freight
Mixed Passenger-Freight Railways: U71Mn supports traffic loads, with lower laying cost than other foreign rails.
High-Speed Freight Lines: Quenched rail heads reduce wheel rolling resistance, enabling high speeds with lower energy consumption.
Heavy-Haul Mining Transport
Long-Distance Open-Pit Mine Lines
Large Underground Mine Roads: Wide base design minimizes track subsidence in deformable roadways.
Ports & Logistics Hubs
Deepwater Port Rail Lines: Composite-coated rails last more longer, 3x longer than traditional coatings.
Logistics Park Circular Railways: Supports 50-ton forklift frequent turning, with hardened heads reducing metal plastic deformation.
Industrial & Special Railways
Military Dedicated Lines
