A45 Rail
Product Overview
A45 rail (also shown as Rail A45 / a45 crane rail) is a DIN-certified, lightweight rail designed for light-duty tracks — ideal for plant conveyors, short-haul handling and elevated or temporary installations. At 22.1 kg/m with a 55×125×45 mm profile and made from 50Mn (yield ≥450 MPa, tensile ≥645 MPa; head hardness 260–300 HB), it balances easy installation with strong wear resistance. Available in cut lengths (5–12 m) with optional surface treatments (epoxy, phosphating, quenching), nationwide delivery and a 1-year warranty.
Key Features
45 mm head width — Optimizes wheel/rail contact to reduce wear and noise; extends wheel life.
125 mm base — Increases lateral stability and distributes stresses more evenly to reduce sleeper fatigue.
22.1 kg/m lightweight — Ideal for elevated, temporary, or weight-sensitive structures; lowers civil/structural cost.
50Mn + optional quench — High strength plus improved wear life under frequent starts/stops and cyclic loads.
DIN 536-1-1991 & ISO 9001 certified — batch-by-batch EN 10204 3.1 material reports available for download.
22.1 kg/m lightweight profile — lowers structural load, transport and installation cost.
50Mn wear-resistant steel + optional quenching — yield ≥ 390 MPa, tensile ≥ 645 MPa, rail head hardness 260–300 HB (quenched version ~30% better wear resistance).

FAQs
Q:Can A45 rail be used with imported hoists/cranes?
A:Yes — conforms to DIN 536-1-1991 and is compatible with mainstream European light-duty crane models. We can confirm specific model fits on request (including confirmation for a45 crane rail integrations).
Q:How do I request a sample? Is it free?
A:Samples/short trial sections are available. Sample policy (charges for sample and/or shipping) depends on volume and destination; priority handling available for project evaluations.
Q: What are the delivery times for custom orders?
A:Standard cut lengths: 3–5 working days. Special surface treatments or unusual lengths: 7–10 working days. Rush orders can be prioritized—contact us.
