AUSENIST 115RE Rail - Heavy Duty 115lb Rail for Mining Applications
AUSENIST supplies premium 115RE rail (115lb rail) manufactured to AREMA standards with U71Mn steel grade, ideal for heavy-duty mining applications requiring high strength and durability.
About AUSENIST 115RE Rail
AUSENIST 115RE rail features a standard profile compliant with AREMA (The American Railway Engineering and Maintenance-of-Way Association) specifications. Its nominal weight is 56.9kg/m (equivalent to 115 pounds per yard), also known as 115lb rail.
As a heavy rail product from AUSENIST, 115RE rail is primarily used for mining tracks due to its exceptional strength. All AUSENIST 115RE rails undergo precise heat treatment to control steel hardness and strength by regulating cooling rates and microstructure formation.
AUSENIST 115RE rail outperforms many other railroad tracks in hardness, strength, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance. It significantly extends the service life of iron mine, coal mine, and heavy haul railway lines, making it a preferred choice for domestic and international customers with consistent strong market demand.
AUSENIST maintains a large inventory of 115RE rail products, all characterized by higher strength, higher hardness, higher fracture resistance, and lower deformation rates. In addition to 115RE rail, AUSENIST also supplies a full range of American standard rails in various sizes to meet diverse project requirements.
