ASCE60 RAIL

ASCE 60 is a medium-duty "T-section" rail widely recognized as the industry standard for stable, industrial trackage. Its signature feature is its perfectly square profile—where the height and base width are both 4.25 inches—which provides superior lateral stability and simplified mounting for crane runways.

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.
