CR73 Crane Rail
Product Overview
The JIS CR73 crane rail is a high-strength, precision-engineered rail designed for medium-to-heavy-duty overhead cranes, gantry cranes, and material handling systems in industrial and port environments. Manufactured to JIS E 1101 and JIS E 1103 standards, it combines robust load-bearing capacity with superior wear resistance, ensuring reliable performance in challenging conditions.
Key features
Rail height: 135mm ; base width: 140mm
Web thickness: 32mm; head width: 100mm.
Material:
U71Mn High-Strength Rail Steel (default): Tensile strength ≥880MPa, hardness ≥260HBW, ideal for heavy freight and high-speed applications.
Key Specifications:
Profile: Symmetrical wide-flange design (73.3kg/m)
Length:Standard: 10/12 m; custom lengths available upon request.
Heavy-Duty Load Capacity
U71Mn steel structure withstands dynamic loads and frequent start-stop operations, minimizing deformation.
Enhanced Wear Resistance
As-rolled hardness of 260–300 HBW reduces rail head wear compared to conventional carbon steel.
Microalloyed composition (0.65–0.76% C, 1.10–1.40% Mn) ensures resistance to surface fatigue and abrasion.
Precision Engineering
Tight dimensional tolerances (±0.5 mm for height/width; ±0.3 mm for head profile) ensure seamless alignment with crane wheels and fasteners.
Straightness tolerance: ≤2 mm/m , reducing vibration and noise during operation.
Corrosion Protection
Optional hot-dip galvanization or epoxy coatings for outdoor applications in marine or high-humidity environments.
Applications
Ports & Logistics
Container cranes in international ports (e.g., Yokohama) .
Automated storage and retrieval systems (AS/RS) in e-commerce fulfillment centers.
Heavy Industry
Overhead cranes in steel mills and foundries handling molten metal.
Gantry cranes in shipyards for vessel assembly and repair.
Mining & Construction
Underground mining transport systems with moderate load requirements.
Mobile cranes in construction sites for material lifting.
Aerospace & Automotive
Assembly line cranes in aircraft hangars and automotive manufacturing plants.
