2. Juli 2020 · The railroad metal, commonly known as train track steel, is special steel in metallurgical products mainly used for railroad tracks. The rail bears the weight and dynamic load of the train. Its surface wears, and the head is impacted. The rail is subject to large bending stress, too.

One of the noticeable features of this steel is the high manganese content. This is a requirement for good reason – it allows for deeper heat treatment. For railroad tracks to perform well in the long term, there are two really important qualities that the steel needs to have: high wear resistance and resistance to fracturing. The deeper heat treat...
Obviously, this is pretty hard stuff. You’re not going to get too far with a hack saw. If you do, send me a video. I’m always up for a good laugh. So here are some tips for cutting and working with railroad tracks: 1. Use either a cutting torch (ideal) or a cutoff wheel (much slower) to cut off a length to work with. 2. If you’re using heat to cut ...
Obviously, not all railroad track will be exactly the same grade. This is especially true of older tracks. Now that there are better and more standardized manufacturing methods, any track that’s only a couple of decades old is likely to be a 1084 or at least be very similar. Earlier than that, though and it could be anyone’s guess. 200 years ago, t...
This is the fun part: What can you make with the stuff? This is actually pretty popular metal to work with among knife makers. It’s great for forging and heat treats really well. It can take a little bit of effort to get into a good shape for knife making, but once you do it’s a carbon steel that’s great for choppers and will definitely hold an edg...
So if the steel really is 1084, then here’s how you can treat it: 1. Bring the steel up to 1450 F 2. Once you’ve hit that temp, “soak” the metal for 15 to 20 minutes. Basically, just hold it at that temperature. 3. Quench in warm oil. 4. Temper the steel to draw the hardness back. This will help remove stresses and prevent cracking. Don’t forget th...
The rail steel features highest resistance to degradation such as wear, corrugation and RCF, and is generally recommended for use in curves of railway tracks. 400 UHC® HSH® Product line (Heavy-Haul Application)

Unlike some other uses of iron and steel, railway rails are subject to very high stresses and have to be made of very high-quality steel alloy. It took many decades to improve the quality of the materials, including the change from iron to steel. The stronger the rails and the rest of the trackwork, the heavier and faster the trains ...
23. Feb. 2024 · Voestalpine's ultra-high carbon (UHC) super premium rail steel is a material concept which can be adapted to the particular needs of railways. UHC grades feature very high wear resistance, high resistance to any kind of corrugation or RCF, and good weldability. The evaluation of rail steels has long been a topic of continuous ...
20. Sept. 2019 · With the new 400GHT grooved rail steel, voestalpine perfectly meets the criteria of a ‘Put-in-and-Forget’ strategy, thereby translating the material concepts from the heavy-haul sector directly into challenging tramway curves.
