What is Kelsan® Keltrack®?
Kelsan® KELTRACK® Hi-Rail is a water based liquid friction modifier designed for application from a Top-Of-Rail delivery system mounted on a Hi-Rail truck or Portec Rail Road-Runner® Hi-Rail™ TOR Application System. KELTRACK® leaves a dry Thin Film on the Top-Of-Rail which is transferred to the wheel tread of the locomotives that pass over the treated rail. This provides friction control in the wheel/rail interface.
This form of KELTRACK® dries rapidly, and forms a thin film of friction modifier on the top of the rail. It is also optimized to have maximum retentivity (number of axle passes for which the material remains effective).
What is Portec Rail Road-Runner® 361?
The Portec Rail Road-Runner® 361 is a Hi-Rail vehicle mounted Top-Of-Rail application system. It is designed to spray Kelsan® KELTRACK® to the Top-Of-Rail and was developed by Portec Rail Products in collaboration with Kelsan Technologies. The application system sprays KELTRACK® Hi-Rail evenly to the Top-Of-Rail as it drives along the track.
