Fe is the basis.
In rails made of Kerch ores, the content of phosphorus is not more than 0.040%, sulfur is not more than 0.050%, arsenic is not more than 0.15%.
The rails of group I must be made of calm open-hearth steel, deoxidized in the ladle by complex deoxidizers without the use of aluminum or other deoxidizers, which form harmful non-metallic inclusions in steel.
