The S24 rail is a light-to-medium-duty steel rail profile produced under the DIN 5901 standard, with a theoretical weight of 24.4 kg per meter. Designed to provide a balance between strength and flexibility, it is an excellent choice for a wide range of medium-load applications in industrial facilities, mining transport lines, and light rail transit systems. The S24 profile is a reliable solution for both temporary and permanent installations that require stable and efficient material movement.

Key Features and Benefits
The DIN S24 rail is engineered for versatility and durable performance in diverse industrial settings.
- Optimal Strength-to-Weight Ratio: The S24 rail provides a significant increase in load-bearing capacity and stability compared to lighter profiles, while remaining manageable for installation and transport.
- Versatility for Installations: Its robust yet flexible design makes it suitable for both temporary tracks that need to be laid and removed, as well as for permanent installations that require long-term durability.
- Excellent Dimensional Stability: Manufacturing to the DIN 5901 standard ensures a high degree of dimensional consistency, which is crucial for smooth wheel-to-rail interaction and precision in transport systems.
Applications
The S24 rail is a versatile product widely used in a variety of industrial and infrastructure environments:
- Mining Transport Lines: Provides a reliable track for conveying materials, equipment, and personnel within mines.
- Industrial Facilities: Serves as a stable track for factory floor systems, internal transport, and light-to-medium capacity crane systems.
- Light Rail Transit Systems: Can be used in specialized light rail transit projects where a medium-weight rail is required.
- Tunnels and Infrastructure Projects: Ideal for use in tunnels and other infrastructure projects that require stable and efficient material movement over medium distances.
