Characteristics of intermediate rails

The production of intermediate rails is mainly carried out through a hot-rolling process, where steel is formed into precise shapes and dimensions at high temperatures. This provides them with exceptional strength and resistance to bending, crucial to their functionality.

The structure of the intermediate rails is designed to provide even load distribution and high resistance to abrasion and corrosion, which is important in industrial environments. The steel alloy used in the production of these components is carefully selected to ensure an optimal combination of strength, flexibility and durability.

During the production of intermediate rails, it is also important to maintain dimensional precision, which is achieved through the use of modern measurement and control technologies at every stage of the process. As a result, these rails are characterized by high dimensional accuracy, which is crucial in applications requiring precise assembly and structural stability.

Features and benefits of intermediate rails

Features of intermediate rails:

• High durability - Intermediate rails are made from high-quality steel, which provides them with exceptional resistance to mechanical loads.
• Resistance to abrasion and corrosion - special surface treatment and the use of suitable steel alloys guarantee protection from external factors.
• Structural flexibility - intermediate rails are designed to withstand a variety of operating conditions without compromising their structure.

Advantages of intermediate rails:

• Increased structural reliability - their strength and resistance to external factors guarantee the safety and durability of the structure.
• Minimal maintenance - long service life and corrosion resistance significantly reduce the need for regular maintenance and repairs.
• Cost optimization - high performance and minimal maintenance translate into lower overall operating costs.

Intermediate rail profiles

• Limited flexibility in applications with higher load variability.

S30 intermediate rail profile

Features:

• Weight is about 30.35 kg/m.
• Height is 120 mm.

Advantages:

• Higher strength than S24, better for medium loads.
• Versatile, good for different types of tracks.

Disadvantages:

• Heavier, which may require ground reinforcement.
• Less economical than lighter models.

S30 intermediate rail profile according to DIN5901

Features:

• Weight per meter similar to S30, but conforms to DIN standards.
• Height and width according to DIN standards.

Advantages:

• Meeting DIN standards ensures high quality and safety.

Disadvantages:

• May be more expensive than other non-DIN compliant rails.

S39 intermediate rail profile

Features:

• Weight is about 39.8 kg/m.
• Height is 133.35 mm

Advantages:

• Ideal for high loads and heavy traffic.
• Durable and durable under harsh conditions.

Disadvantages:

• Higher weight requires stronger base and construction.
• Higher cost compared to lighter rails.

Steel grades

We offer intermediate rails in 167HB, 700 and R200 steel.

167HB steel grade

Features:

• Brinell hardness is approximately 167 HB.
• Good ductility and tensile strength.
• Used in rail production where moderate hardness and good machinability are required.

Advantages:

• Easy to machine, including welding and cutting.
• Good wear resistance under moderate load.

Disadvantages:

• Less resistance to extreme loads and abrasion.
• May require more frequent maintenance under heavy use.

Steel grade 700

Features:

• High strength, typical of steels with a yield strength of about 700 MPa.
• Used in situations requiring exceptional strength.

Advantages:

• Excellent load and abrasion resistance.
• Less tendency to deform under weight.

Disadvantages:

• More difficult to machine compared to less hard grades.
• Higher production cost and potentially higher final product price.

R200 steel grade

Features:

• Steel with relatively low hardness, often used in the production of standard railroad rails.
• Good formability and flexibility.

Advantages:

• Ease of forming and assembly.
• Good fatigue resistance in standard use.

Disadvantages:

• Less resistant to high loads and abrasion than harder steel.
• May not be suitable for extreme conditions such as heavy industry or heavy rail traffic.

Intermediate rail applications

S24-profile rails are commonly used in the construction of smaller railroad structures where high loads are not required. Their main use is in tracks with less traffic, such as tracks in industrial plants, mines or storage areas. They are ideal for applications where economy rather than heavy use is the priority.

S30 profile rails are more versatile, finding use in regional railroads where loads are moderate but greater strength is required than with S24 rails. They are suitable for moderately loaded tracks, such as smaller industrial lines, logistics parks or warehouse areas with medium traffic.

S30 DIN profile rails, which meet DIN standards, are often used in European railroad systems, where standards and specifications in accordance with European standards are required. Their use ranges from regional railroads to specialized industrial tracks, where interoperability and compliance with EU standards are important.

S39 profile rails are rails designed for heavy industrial conditions and mainline railroads. They are ideal for heavy-duty trackways such as heavy industry, large transportation hubs, ports or heavily used rail lines. Because of their strength, they are chosen in situations where durability and resistance to heavy use are key.

Tips for investors

• Determine requirements - define load requirements and operating conditions to select the right rail profile.
• Material selection - pay attention to the steel grade (e.g., 167HB, 700, R200) in terms of required strength and durability.
• Analysis of suppliers - choose reputable suppliers offering products that comply with applicable standards and certifications.
• Verification of standards compliance - make sure that the selected rails meet standards and required standards.
• Evaluate total cost - consider not only the purchase price, but also the cost of installation, maintenance and potential repairs.

Storage of intermediate rails

Proper storage of intermediate rails is key to maintaining their quality and functionality. Our recommendations:

• Corrosion protection - store rails in a dry and well-ventilated place to avoid corrosion.
• Stable placement - make sure the rails are stably placed to prevent them from falling over and being damaged.
• Proper padding - use wooden or rubber pads to distribute weight evenly and protect against scratches.
• Maintain access - maintain walkways between stacks of rails to allow easy access.
• Marking and identification - mark each stack to easily identify different types and sizes of rails.
• Regular inspections - regularly check the condition of rails to detect any damage or signs of corrosion.
