Cold Forge works in partnership with British Steel to supply a full range of Crane Rail options.
Our high quality products, ability to stick to tight customer delivery schedules and global shipping capability make us a natural choice for major projects worldwide, working alongside leading crane rail installers.
With a regular rolling programme of each rail size coupled with our dedicated crane rail stockholding facilities, we offer customers all over the world just-in-time delivery.
Whether for overhead gantry or floor mounted-cranes, we understand that consistency of product is critical. Our rail is checked for straightness and quality in our dedicated inspection facility.
Product range
We offer a range of steel rail sections for use with overhead gantry and floor-mounted cranes. Our crane rail products include:
Customised lengths
Our crane rails are supplied as standard at 12m lengths and in 11.8m or 11.95m for containers. Other non-standard lengths are available on request.
Straightness
Maximum - 1.5mm per metre.
Steel specifications
Our extensive steelmaking expertise provides the capability to modify steel specification.
This can increase the crane rail’s load-bearing capability and extend its life span through improved wear performance.
For example, we have developed steels with a higher vanadium content to provide these benefits.
‘A’ range crane rails are available as per DIN 536-1, with other crane rails being produced to our bespoke specification.
The steel grades for all products meet the requirements for minimum 690 N/mm2 and 880 N/mm2 tensile strength.
