Which Steel Grade Is Best for Your A120 Crane Rail Project?
The steel grade determines the hardness, toughness, and wear resistance of your crane rail. GNEE supplies high-quality grades tailored to distinct operational environments and international standards. Here is how to select the right material for your project:
U71Mn
TB/T Standard Heavy-Duty Grade
This is the benchmark heavy-duty grade in Chinese and Asian industrial standards, featuring high carbon and manganese content with a tensile strength of ≥880 MPa. Choose U71Mn for continuous, high-frequency operations carrying massive loads, offering exceptional surface wear and crack resistance.
900A
EN / UIC Compliant Grade
Engineered to meet rigorous European (EN) and International (UIC) railway standards, Grade 900A delivers a tensile strength of ≥880 MPa. It works perfectly for automated container terminals, heavy manufacturing plants, and international tender projects requiring strict EN/UIC standard compliance.
Where Are A120 Crane Rails Commonly Used?
Engineered to support massive operational loads, DIN 536 A120 rails are widely deployed across demanding heavy industries worldwide:
Shipyards & Dry Docks
Supporting giant gantry cranes that lift and position massive hull sections.
Steel Mills & Foundries
For overhead charging cranes carrying molten metal and heavy steel coils.
Automated Warehouses
For heavy-duty automated stacker cranes (AS/RS systems) handling large pallet loads.
Mining & Power Plants
For rail-mounted stacker-reclaimers and heavy transformer transport tracks.
What Fastening Accessories Do You Need for an A120 Rail System?
A crane track is only safe if it is held down by the right parts. GNEE provides a complete, one-stop crane track system with all matching accessories designed for the A120 rail:
Weldable and bolted clips with a flexible rubber nose stop the rail from shifting under heavy lateral force.
Placed under the rail to absorb vibration, reduce noise, and extend foundation life.
Weldable Q355B (Equivalent to EN S355JR / ASTM A572 Gr.50) steel plates spread the crane weight evenly onto your support beams.
High-tensile joint bars and bolts connect your A120 rail sections smoothly.
How Can GNEE Customize Your A120 Crane Rail Order?
Every crane track project has its own unique site layout. GNEE operates its own processing factory so your A120 rails arrive at your site ready to install:
Precision Cutting
Custom cut lengths from short joint pieces up to 12m standard container lengths, with extended lengths (up to 25m+) available via custom rolling or specialized factory flash-butt welding.
End Milling & Chamfering
Flat, precision-milled rail ends for tight, seamless rail joints.
Precision Drilling
Exact bolt holes drilled to your joint bar (fishplate) layout.
Custom Rail Bending
Cold or hot bending for curved crane runways with controlled internal stress.
Anti-Corrosion Coating
Paint, oil, or galvanize protection for coastal and humid outdoor sites.
Secure Export Packing
Tight bundling and moisture protection for long sea journeys.

FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions About A120 Crane Rail
What does the "A120" name stand for?
The letter "A" represents the European DIN 536 flat-bottom crane rail standard. The number "120" represents the rail's top head width, which is exactly 120 mm.
How much does an A120 crane rail weigh?
According to the DIN 536 standard, the A120 rail weighs exactly 100 kg per meter (approx. 67.2 lbs/ft). A standard 12-meter rail piece weighs around 1,200 kg (1.2 metric tons).
What is the standard length of A120 rail, and can you cut it?
The standard manufacturing length is 12 meters. At our GNEE processing factory, we can cut them to shorter lengths (like 6m, 9m, or customized lengths) to fit your project drawings.
Why shouldn't I use standard railroad tracks for my heavy cranes?
Train tracks are tall and thin, designed for fast speeds. Crane rails like the A120 are short, thick, and have an extra-wide base. This low-profile, wide-base, and thick-web design distributes massive static wheel loads evenly, withstands extreme lateral shear forces, and prevents web buckling or excessive deformation under heavy cyclic loading.
What quality documents come with the shipment?
We supply a full Mill Test Certificate (MTC) according to EN 10204 3.1. We also welcome third-party inspections from companies like SGS or BV before shipping.
