Product Features
Rail track bars, commonly referred to as rails or railroad tracks, play a fundamental role in the railway industry. Here are some primary applications of rail track bars:
Support and Guide Trains: The most fundamental application of rail track bars is to provide a stable, continuous, and smooth surface for trains to run on. They support the weight of the trains and guide their wheels safely along the predetermined path.
Load Distribution: Rails distribute the loads from the train wheels to the railway sleepers (ties) beneath them, which in turn spread this load to the ballast and subgrade. This helps in maintaining the stability and alignment of the track.
Electrical Conductivity: In electrified railways, the rails often serve a dual function as conductors for the return current of the traction power system, complementing the overhead wires or third rail.
Signal Transmission: Some railway systems use the rails for transmitting signals that control train movements, using track circuits. The presence of a train on a section of track can be detected through changes in electrical resistance, which interrupts the signal and indicates the train’s location to the control center.
Structural Integrity of Track: Rails help in maintaining the gauge of the track (the distance between the two rails), which is crucial for the safe passage of trains. They also aid in resisting lateral and longitudinal movements caused by dynamic forces during train operations.
Thermal Expansion Management: Rails are designed to handle thermal expansion and contraction due to temperature variations. They are installed with specific gaps or are welded into continuous welded rails (CWR) to manage these changes without causing warps or bends.
Speed and Efficiency: High-quality rail track bars enable trains to travel at higher speeds while reducing the rolling resistance, which improves efficiency and reduces energy consumption.
Safety: By providing a controlled and smooth running surface, rails significantly enhance the safety of railway transport. They help in minimizing accidents and derailments.
