The invention discloses a rolling method for improving the
hardness of a steel rail with standard strength. The production process comprises the following steps: molten iron in a
steelmaking process, converter
smelting, LF (
ladle furnace) refining, VD (vacuum degassing) and
continuous casting to ensure the purity and component uniformity of
molten steel; rolling and subsequent processes: heating by a stepping furnace, descaling by high-pressure water, rolling by a universal
rolling mill, cooling and pre-bending by a cooling
bed, straightening, carrying out ultrasonic flaw detection,
processing, checking and warehousing; the steel rail comprises the following chemical components in percentage by
mass: 0.81-0.86% of C; s : 0.52%-0.59%; mn: 1.17 to 1.25%; less than or equal to 0.020% of P; less than or equal to 0.020% of S; 0.23 to 0.28% of Cr; 0.03 to 0.05 percent of N ; and the balance Fe and impurities. The low-cost and high-quality high-speed steel rail steel is prepared by optimizing the chemical components of the steel grade and customizing the controlled rolling and controlled cooling process, and the
hardness, strength and
toughness of the high-speed steel rail steel all meet the American standard requirements.
