Steel grade:

The BS75A rail is part of the British Standard (BS) series of rail profiles used extensively in railway track construction. It is a specification that falls under the British Standards, which cover steel rails used for railway purposes.
Here are some general features of the BS75A rail:

Weight: As indicated by the designation “75A,” this rail profile typically has a weight of approximately 37.46 kilograms per meter.

Profile: Like other BS rail types, the BS75A rail likely has a flat-bottomed profile, which is a characteristic feature of many modern railway rails. This type of profile allows for a more stable and secure placement on railway sleepers (ties) and is compatible with various types of fastening systems.

Applications: Given its weight, the BS75A rail is suitable for lighter load applications compared to heavier rail profiles like the BS90A or BS100A. It may be used in light rail systems, branch lines, industrial areas, or other settings where heavy freight or high-speed passenger services are not predominant.

Material: The BS75A rail would be manufactured using high-quality steel to ensure durability, strength, and good resistance to wear and tear. It must also maintain good electrical conductivity for signaling purposes.

Standards Compliance: As with all British Standard rails, the BS75A would be produced to meet strict guidelines and specifications to ensure safety, reliability, and interoperability within the UK rail network and other networks that adhere to British Standards.

Installation: The BS75A rail can be installed using various sleeper and fastening combinations, depending on the requirements of the railway line. It should allow for efficient installation and maintenance, contributing to overall track integrity.

Length: Standard lengths for rails like the BS75A are typically in the range of 12 to 25 meters, although they can be supplied in different lengths to suit specific track requirements.

Please note that specific technical dimensions and usage regulations can vary, and for detailed engineering specifications, it would be necessary to consult the actual British Standard documentation or technical datasheets provided by the rail manufacturers. If the BS75A rail is not a commonly used or recognized profile, detailed information may not be readily available, and it may be necessary to refer to industry standards or contact manufacturers directly for more information.
