Special rails from the professionals. We are the global market leader for grooved rails and the only manufacturer of heat-treated qualities in this segment. Our customers include almost all major tram operators in Europe, as well as numerous other important companies based in North and South America, Australasia and Africa.
Patented Success. The qualities R290GHT and R340GHT are both fine pearlitic, heat-treated grooved rails as per EN14811 and represent optimized rail solutions for all track maintenance strategies of our customers. Both qualities benefit from HSH® heat treatment technology. HSH® grooved rails with high wear resistance are mainly used for curves on tram tracks subject to heavy-duty service: R340GHT as a “put-in-&- forget” solution with maximum wear resistance. R290GHT, which offers optimum metallurgical conditions for the welding strategies of our customers (reprofiling in the track), is also available as 290GHT-CL with an extra-low carbon content of max. 0.50 %.
In-track welding, tried and tested standard processes and procedures are available for all grooved rail steel grades produced by voestalpine Schienen. With the aim of synergistically maximizing customer benefit, these rails are also used in voestalpine‘s turnouts.
