Specialty Lubricants in
Railway Sector
The railway sector operates under extreme conditions, including high loads, varying temperatures, continuous friction, and exposure to environmental contaminants. Standard lubricants may not provide sufficient protection, so specialty lubricants are required to ensure efficiency, safety, and cost-effectiveness.
The railway sector relies on specialty lubricants in several key areas to ensure safe, efficient, and long-lasting operation of trains, tracks, and infrastructure:
1. Wheel-Rail Interface (Friction Management) • Rail Curve Lubrication • Flange Lubrication • Top-of-Rail Friction Modifiers
2. Rolling Stock (Locomotives and Railcars) • Traction Motors & Bearings • Axle Bearings & Wheel Hubs • Gearboxes & Transmissions • Pantograph Mechanisms
3. Track Infrastructure & Signaling Systems • Track Switches & Points • Overhead Catenary Systems • Signaling Equipment & Switches
4. Braking Systems • Brake Rods & Linkages • Air Compressor Systems
5. Depot and Maintenance Equipment • Hydraulic Systems (Lifting Jacks, Presses, etc.) • Wheel Lathes & Rail Grinding Machines
