The Standard deals with R50 and R65 types of wide-gauge rails, produced from open-hearth, high-carbon steel. Thermally-treated rails have to conform to requirements of GOST-s 6944-63; 7174-65; 8160-63; and 9160-63, and also to chemical composition indicated in the Table of this Standard. Mechanical specifications of steel are presented in a Table, and concern hardness, provisional resistance, yield-point, relative extension and contraction, and impact strength. Hardness on the rolling surface of the rail head should be NV331 to 388, hardness of the web and flange of the rail - not over NV388. Hardened rails have to undergo acceptance inspection and tests. Chemical composition is tested according to GOST 2331-63. Sampling for chemical tests is made according to GOST 7565-66. Hardness on the rolling head surface and on the rail cross-section is determined according to GOST 9012-59.
