摘要:
A high-strength, high damage-resistant rail made of 0.6 to 0.85 wt % C, 0.1 to 1.0 wt % Si, 0.5 to 1.5 wt % Mn, 0.035 wt % or less P, 0.040 wt % or less S, and 0.05 wt % or less Al, with the balance being Fe and inevitable impurities, and having corner and head side portions having a Brinell hardness of 341 to 405, and a head top portion in which a Brinell hardness of a site 20-mm distant from the central portion of the head top portion in a width direction is 341 to 405, and a hardness of the central portion of the head top portion is at least 10 lower in Brinell hardness than that of the site 20-mm distant from the central portion.
摘要:
A method for manufacturing a high strength rail with good toughness, comprises cooling a rail to Ar.sub.3 transformation point or less after hot rolling; heating said cooled rail at a temperature of an austenite temperature zone ranging from Ac.sub.3 transformation point to 950.degree. C.; and cooling the heated rail. The chemical composition of the rail consists of 0.50 to 0.85 wt. % C, 0.50 to 1.50 wt. % Mn, 0.035 wt. % S or less, 0.10 to 1.00 wt. % Si, 0.035 wt. % P or less, 0.050 wt. % Al or less and the balance of Fe and inevitable impurities.
摘要:
A method for heat-treating a steel rail head, which comprises: heating a steel rail head to the austenization temperature; then, cooling the rail head by means of a hot water jet until a surface temperature of the rail head decreases to a temperature not below 420.degree. C.; and then cooling the rail head by means of an air jet at least to the pearlite transformation temperature, thereby transforming the structure of a surface portion of the rail head into a uniform and fine pearlite structure. The above-described method includes a method in which the rail head is previously cooled by means of a water spray until the surface temperature of the rail head decreases to a temperature not below 530.degree. C. prior to the cooling of the rail head by means of the above-mentioned hot water jet.
摘要:
A wear resistance rail which comprises 0.50 to 0.85 wt. % of C, 0.10 to 1.0 wt. % of Si, 0.50 to 1.50 wt. % of Mn, less than 0.035 wt. % of P, less than 0.035 wt. % of S, less than 0.050 wt. % of Al, and the balance of iron and impurities. The web has a high toughness tempered bainite structure, tempered martensite structure or a tempered mixed structure of bainite and martensite and the head rail has high wear resistance which prevents unstable destructive cracks from propagating. The rail can further contain one or more of 0.05 to 1.50 wt. % of Cr, 0.05 to 0.20 wt. % of Mo, 0.03 to 0.10 wt. % of V, 0.10 to 1.00 wt. % of Ni, and 0.005 to 0.050 wt. % of Nb.
