Digital Display Rail Wear Gauge

Steel rail is the fixed road of train running, so its safety is very important for train. Steel rail wear is a common but dangerous phenomenon that impacts the train track safety. Next, we'll discuss it!

What is steel rail wear?
The separation or cutting of steel rail due to friction or abnormal heavy load is called steel rail wear. Generally, there are three types of rail wear, that is, side wear, vertical wear, corrugation wear.

1. Side wear
Side wear is the wear that occurs at the side of head of rails. As the name implies, the side of head of rails wears with the train wheels because of the interaction, which causes the profile change of the rails.
2. Vertical wear
Vertical wear is the wear that occurs at the top of head of rails. The top of head of rails is worn out and damaged in the vertical direction.

The combination of side wear and vertical wear is called the total wear of rails, the formula is as follows:
Total wear= vertical wear+side wear×0.5

3. Corrugation wear
On the top surface of rails (or the surface of conjunction part of between top surface and side surface), there occurs uneven but regular corrugation shape of wear, which can be generally divided into long corrugation wear and short corrugation wear.
