Description

The steel rail, also know as rail track, railroad rail, is used to guide the train wheels far forwarding, by withstanding the enormous stress by the wheel when a train passes by, and transferring to the tie sleepers as well. The rail shall provide smooth and continuous rolling surface with least resistance. Generally speaking, the heavier the rails and the rest of the track work, the heavier and higher speed for the train these railroad tracks can carry. At electrified railway or automatic block sections, the railroad rail can also be used as the railroad track circuit.

ASCE Rail is a type of rail defined by the American Society of Civil Engineering, which is used in railway tracks in North America. It is mainly used for light transport or light rails such as temporary hauling tracks in forested areas, mines, and construction areas. ASCE rail sizes are generally specified with its weight per yard.

ASCE 25 Rail

ASCE 25 rails are commonly used for light-duty rail transport systems such as mining and forestry operations. These rails have a weight of 25 pounds per yard and are suitable for low-traffic rail transport systems.
