Rail Ends
The rail ends in a jointed rail, are subjected to a range of wear phenomenon including daily metal-to-metal wear and impact. Rail ends also experience wear caused by a mismatched rail resulting in further metal deterioration. Effective repair and track maintenance solutions are therefore essential to address damages and prevent premature failure caused by extreme levels of wear.
The replacement of worn rail can prove costly and time consuming. Today, through advances in technology and procedures, the restoration of rail ends by weld rebuilding offers a viable, cost-effective approach to extend the track lifetime.
