What is a flat bar rail?

 What is a flat bar rail?



1. What’s a flat bar rail?

A flat bar rail is a steel bar, which has a rectangular cross-section profile. There are two types of flat bar rail, square bar rail, and flat steel rail. Their difference lies in their profile. One is square, while the other is a rectangle.

2. Application

Flat bar is widely used in curtain walls, engineering machinery, shipbuilding, elevator parts, overhead crane rails, weight stack, and the automobile industry.

3. Size

The main sizes of flat bar rail include 40x30mm, 40X60mm, 80x60mm, 50x50mm, 100x60mm. The two numbers represent the height and length of the profile of the rails. And the unit of measurement is mm. And the total length of the whole rail is normally 5.8m.

4. Materials and standard

Flat bar rails materials have different standards, like A572, GR 50, ST52-3, S355JR, and Q345B. For example, ASTM A572 steel is a common high strength, low alloy (HSLA) structural steel used in the United States. And Q345B is a kind of GB standard low alloy steel. The main standards are GB, AISI, ASTM, SAE, EN, BS, DIN, and JIS. For instance, JIS represents Japanese standards.

5. How are flat bar rails processed?

Manufacturers can produce flat bar rail in both hot rolled and cold drawn conditions. Hot-rolled steel rails are rolled at high temperatures, while cold-rolled ones are in normal temperatures. Hot-rolled rails are easier to shape, while cold-rolled ones have a smoother surface.

6. How do identify the quality of flat bar rail?

The quality flat bar is straight and has a smooth and intact surface.

What are railway rail fasteners？

What are railway rail fasteners？ Railway rail fasteners Railway rail fasteners are a kind of railway accessories. The parts used to combine rails and sleepers (or other types of under-rail foundations) on the track are also called central joint parts. Its function is to fix the steel rail on the sleeper, maintain the gauge and prevent the longitudinal and lateral movement of the rail relative to the sleeper. The railway rail fastener system is divided into the shrapnel fastener system, gusset fastener system, and elastic strip fastener system. The gusset-type fastener is composed of a gusset plate, a threaded spike, a spring washer, an iron seat, and a buffer pad. The threaded spike is anchored in the reserved hole of the concrete sleeper bearing platform with sulfur cement mortar, and then bolts are used to fasten the buckle. Plate fastened. There are elastic strips I, II, and III types of clip fasteners. Type I elastic strip is composed of ω elastic strip,  screw spike , gauge b...
