Which Steel Grade Is Best for Your A100 Crane Rail Project?
Choosing the right steel grade is essential for achieving the required service life and performance from your A100 crane rail. Factors such as wheel load, operating intensity, and site conditions can all influence which grade is most suitable. We provide three main steel grade options for A100 rail, allowing you to balance mechanical performance, durability, and overall cost.
| Steel Grade | Mechanical Property | Chemical Composition (%) | |||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Yield Strength MPa |
Tensile Strength MPa ≥ |
Elongation % ≥ |
Hardness HBW |
C | Si | Mn | P ≤ |
S ≤ |

| Grade 900A U71Mn |
— | 880 | 9 | 260 – 300 | 0.65 – 0.76 | 0.15 – 0.35 | 1.10 – 1.40 | 0.030 | 0.030 |
| Grade 1100 | — | 1080 | 7 | 300 – 340 | 0.70 – 0.82 | 0.15 – 0.35 | 1.10 – 1.40 | 0.025 | 0.025 |
Note on steel grade: U71Mn and 50Mn are Chinese mill designations under the GB standard system. U71Mn is the Chinese GB equivalent of Grade 900A — a premium high-carbon rail steel delivering high hardness and long-lasting wear resistance. 50Mn is the Chinese GB equivalent of Grade 700 — a cost-effective medium-carbon alternative suited for medium-load working conditions. Grade 1100 requires special heat treatment.e.
Where Are A100 Crane Rails Commonly Installed Globally?
PORTS & TERMINALS
STS, RTG/RMG & Mobile Harbor Cranes

A100 Crane Rail: Common Questions
What is the difference between A100 and A75 crane rails?
The A75 rail has a 75mm head width, 85mm height, and weighs 56.2 kg/m, while the A100 features a 100mm head width, 95mm height, and weighs 74.3 kg/m. Choose A100 for significantly heavier wheel loads (typically exceeding 350 kN) and wider contact area stability. A75 is optimized for moderate-to-heavy loads up to approximately 300-350 kN and is often used for trolley rails rather than main crane runways.
What steel grades are available for A100 crane rail?
We supply A100 rails in three steel grades: Grade 700 (tensile strength ≥690 MPa, for general-purpose medium-load use), Grade 900A / U71Mn (tensile strength ≥880 MPa, the most popular grade for high-frequency operations), and Grade 1100 (tensile strength ≥1080 MPa, for 24/7 extreme heavy-duty continuous operation).
Can you cut A100 rails to custom lengths or drill bolt holes?
Yes. While the standard production length is 12 meters, our processing facility provides precision cutting to your exact length (e.g., 6m, 9.2m, or 11.8m for container fitting), 45-degree mitered beveling, custom bolt hole drilling, precision curving and bending, and anti-corrosion coatings. Send us your drawings and we will confirm feasibility within one business day.
What quality documents come with the A100 rail shipment?
Every shipment includes a full Mill Test Certificate (MTC) according to EN 10204 Type 3.1, detailing the exact chemical composition and mechanical test results of that steel batch. We also welcome third-party inspections from SGS, Bureau Veritas (BV), or TUV at any stage before loading.
How do I get an accurate price quote for A100 crane rail?
