A problem arises when a rail is chosen that is infrequently rolled. Steel Mills normally concentrate on rolling commonly used products and crane rails are not always given priority. As a consequence Gantrail often have to suggest an alternative section. As there may be insufficient information to carry out a full check of the rail, Gantrail have developed systems that will give a good measure of confidence at an early stage in the project cycle.

Crane Rail steels are formulated to give high wear resistance together with a suitable tensile strength. The strength ranges from 550N/mm to 1100N/mm but are typically in the range 600 to 900N/mm.
