141RE RAIL (141LB RAIL)
Product Overview
The 141RE rail, also known as 141lb rail, is an AREMA-standard profile developed for rail systems that operate under sustained high loads and demanding service conditions. It provides a well-balanced mix of load capacity and long-term track stability, situated between standard mainline rails and extra-heavy crane rails. For applications where axle loads, impact pressures, and alignment control must be consistent throughout long service cycles, this profile is frequently used. The 141RE rail, which is made of HH, IS, and SS steel grades, gives engineers a variety of material options while preserving uniform geometry and installation compatibility across rail infrastructure systems.
141RE Rail Material & Sizes
141RE Rail Dimensions
The 141RE rail follows the AREMA profile and features a balanced cross-section designed to handle high axle loads and repeated dynamic stress. Its dimensional design ensures stable wheel contact, reliable fastening performance, and long-term track alignment in heavy-duty railway and crane applications.
| Type of Rail | Standard | Dimensions mm | Steel Grade | Mass M | |||
| Height | Base Width | Head Width | Web Thickness | kg/m | |||
| 141RE | AREMA | 188.91 | 152.4 | 77.79 | 17.46 | IS/SS | 69.94 |
Length Options & Tolerances
- Standard Lengths: 12 m – 25 m
- Custom Lengths: Available on request
- Cutting Tolerance: Controlled to meet project installation requirements
For projects requiring non-standard lengths or tighter tolerances, customized production can be arranged based on engineering drawings or site conditions.
141RE Steel Grades
To meet different load conditions and service environments, 141RE rail is available in HH (Head Hardened), IS (Intermediate Strength), and SS (Standard Strength) steel grades. Each grade offers a distinct balance of hardness, wear resistance, and impact performance for heavy-duty railway and crane rail applications.
How to Choose the Right 141RE Rail Grade
- High axle loads & frequent traffic: HH grade is recommended to minimize wear and maintenance.
- Variable loads & mixed operating conditions: IS grade provides a practical balance of durability and cost.
- Lower traffic or budget-sensitive projects: SS grade offers dependable performance with economic efficiency.
Our technical team can assist in selecting the most suitable steel grade based on axle load, traffic density, environmental conditions, and service life expectations.
