I. Brief introduction

Rails are the core load-bearing and guiding components of railway track systems, serving as the direct contact medium between train wheels and the track. They bear the dynamic loads (pressure, impact, and friction) of rolling stock, transmit loads to sleepers, ballast, and subgrade, and guide the train's running direction with their fixed gauge. As a key structural part of modern railways, their material performance, section design, and technical specifications directly determine the track's operational safety, speed capacity, load-bearing capacity, and maintenance cycle.

II. Core performance requirement：

Railway rails require ultra-high comprehensive mechanical properties to adapt to the harsh working conditions of long-term dynamic load and cyclic friction, with the following core technical requirements:

High strength & toughness: Resist plastic deformation, fatigue cracking, and brittle fracture under heavy load and impact (especially for high-speed and heavy-haul railways).
Wear resistance: Reduce surface abrasion caused by wheel-rail friction, extending the service life of rails and wheels.
Fatigue resistance: Withstand millions of cyclic dynamic loads without generating fatigue cracks (a key index for rail service life).
Weldability: Realize seamless rail welding (the mainstream form of modern railway tracks) to ensure stable connection strength and track smoothness.
Dimensional accuracy: Strict control of section size, straightness, and gauge matching to guarantee train running stability.
