 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 railsweight 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.

Principle of rail clamp design

Principle of rail clamp design rail clamp design The rail clamp design has several functional features: 1. Adjustability: The adjustable length is 15mm, and its adjustability functions include: (1) The rail presser is easy to install, saves time, and has high precision (2) The track can be adjusted if the structure of the support beam is slightly changed. 2. Anti-loosening: Under the action of the lateral force of the track, through the force analysis of the welding RTYB, a part of these lateral forces are transmitted to the bottom seat through the upper cover plate as the pressure of the bottom edge to seat on the upper cover plate. The other part is the lateral friction between the base and the upper cover. Since the wedge-shaped action between the base and the upper cover plate is converted into the tightening force of the bolts, it has an anti-loosening effect. 3. Self-locking: The three pieces are self-locking together through the interaction of the upper cover, the base, and the

What is rail creep

What is rail creep rail creep Rail creep is also known as line crawl. The creeping phenomenon of the rail along the longitudinal direction of the line. With the increase in railway transportation tasks, the impact of the wheels on the rails when the train is running accelerates the creep of the rails. Rail creep can cause many diseases of the line. In order to prevent the occurrence of track creep diseases, it is necessary to find out the real cause of creeping in order to effectively eliminate the problem. There are two different manifestations: the rails move along the soft sleeper surface due to insufficient fastening pressure of the fasteners; the longitudinal movement of the row is caused by insufficient ballast bed resistance. The reason for this is the longitudinal force of the rail caused by the wheel rolling and longitudinal slip, train braking, the change of rail temperature, and the creep caused by the deflection and deformation of the rail under the action of the wheel load
