Heavy Rails
Heavy rail refers to steel rails weighing 38kg/m or more. Heavy rail has the same cross-sectional shape as light rail. However, it features larger dimensions and greater weight per meter, delivers substantially higher load-bearing capacity. These rails power high-load applications including heavy-duty handling equipment, urban rail transit, and subway systems.
GloryTrack supplies heavy rails that strictly comply with GB 2585-2007 standard, manufactured from U71Mn low-alloy steel. Compared to carbon steel, U71Mn offers superior strength, hardness and wear resistance, while maintaining excellent toughness and fatigue resistance, perfect for rail projects requiring high strength and long service life.
Customization Options

Quality Control
As an ISO-certified manufacturer, GloryTrack implements strict quality control for every heavy rail produced, ensuring compliance with GB standards.
All rails undergo dimensional inspections and mechanical performance testing before shipment, with Mill Test Certifications (MTC) provided.
We also support inspection before delivery if needed.
Packing & Delivery
Our heavy rails have been successfully exported to 30+ countries worldwide.
Each batch is securely bundled with steel straps to avoid damage during transport.
Standard specifications are readily available for delivery within 2-3 weeks, while lead time for customized orders will be confirmed after receiving your specifications.
U71Mn VS. Q235
Compared to Q235 carbon steel, U71Mn offers superior mechanical properties that make it ideal for heavy rail use. The comparison below outlines the major differences in strength, hardness, and application suitability.
| Property | U71Mn | Q235 |
| Material Type | Low-alloy steel | Carbon steel |
| Carbon Content | 0.65% – 0.76% | 0.12% – 0.22% |
| Tensile Strength | ≥ 880 MPa | 375 – 460 MPa |
| Hardness (Brinell) | ≥ HB197 | HB110 – 130 |
| Wear Resistance | Excellent | Lower |
| Machinability | Moderate | Good |
| Application | Heavy-duty rails (railway, metro, ports) | Light-load or mining rail |
