Transit
OnBoard Transit Top-Of-Rail Friction Control System
Kelsan® HPF (High Positive Friction) Solid Stick Top-Of-Rail Friction Modifier






Solid stick friction modifier that is applied directly to the wheel tread of the transit vehicle. The HPF material transfers to the tread, and thence the top of the rail. A Thin Film is left behind on the top of rail that provides a consistent friction level of 0.35 on the wheel/rail interface throughout the transit system. HPF OnBoard Sticks Transit are applied using a spring loaded bracket/applicator assembly that is custom built for each customer. The bracket/applicator assembly is attached to the frame of the transit vehicle.
