RESEARCH ON RAIL VEHICLE BRAKE INSERT WEAR

Journal Title: Tribologia - Year 2010, Vol 233, Issue 5

Abstract

The problem discussed in the paper is rail vehicle brake shoe insert wear. The research results are a basis for the assessment of type and intensity of the wear of brake insert material. The paper includes some results of laboratory, test stand and operation tests. Based on the test results, the wear of the brake insert from certain materials has been assessed. Wear intensity determined insert life. Braking distance values give a basis for implementing, in operation, brake inserts made from certain materials.<br/><br/>
