Import Tips
• Include engineering drawings showing rail profile (e.g
• ASCE, AREA standards) to confirm track construction specialization
• Obtain pre-shipment inspection certificates for dimensional accuracy and straightness tolerances
• Beware of reclassification risks if rails lack head-hardening treatment typical for track use
