URBAN TRACK Issued: August 13, 2008<br />

Quality checked and approved by project co-ordinator André Van Leuven<br />

Pre-emptive build-up welding for tram rail<br />

For rail with radii < 250 m (up to min. 17m).<br />

Grooved rail of the 700+ Vanadium (685-835 N/mm 2 ) quality.<br />

Increasing the hardness up to approximatively �500 HB (comparable to the 900A-rail), which<br />

considerably reduces the lateral wear of rail in curves.<br />

Initial welding process in the workshop (even before instalment).<br />

Build-up welding is possible up to 8 times (on site).<br />

Steel quality Materials for build-up welding (on site) :<br />

C 0.20 - 0.30 % 0.07<br />

Mn 1.20 – 1.50 % 7<br />

Si 0.20 – 0.30 % 0.9<br />
