ASCE 60 lb/yd rail is the "gold standard" for medium-duty industrial trackage. Because its height and base width are identical (4.25 inches), it offers a square, stable profile that is exceptionally resistant to tipping under lateral loads.
Signum Rail Fasteners specializes in the supply of ASCE 60 lb/yd rail, providing high-quality T-sections for light rail, mining, and crane runway systems. We support industrial projects with quick-ship inventory and the exact joint bars, bolts, and clips needed for a complete installation.
Weight: 60 lbs per yard (29.76 kg/m).
Standard: ASCE (American Society of Civil Engineers) / ASTM A1.
Height: 4.25" (107.95 mm).
Base: 4.25" (107.95 mm).
Head Width: 2.375" (60.33 mm).
Web Thickness: 0.48" (12.30 mm).
Balanced Design: The 1:1 height-to-base ratio makes it easier to mount on steel beams for overhead cranes or gantry systems.
Standardization: It uses the common 2-1/2" x 5" hole drilling pattern, meaning replacement parts like joint bars and bolts are universally available.
Grade Flexibility: You can source it in Q235 for light duty, 55Q for standard tracks, or U71Mn for high-wear environments like mines and ports.
Joint Bars: 20-inch, 4-hole "Fishplates."
Track Bolts: 3/4" x 4" (with square or hex nuts).
Fasteners: 5/8" x 6" spikes (for wood ties) or Rail Clips (for steel/concrete mounting).
