Assembly paste for wheel-axle assembly in trains
Discover how a specific assembly paste facilitates press-fitting of wheels onto axles, controlling friction and protecting metal surfaces.
Assembly pastes for wheel-axles in the railway sector
Friction control and protection during assembly
Assembly pastes for wheel-axle assembly in trains promote more uniform pressing and protect metal surfaces during mating phases.
MOLYKOTE® G-N Plus is applied to the axle after cleaning the contact areas and distributed without excess. The low coefficient of friction, high load-carrying capacity, and protection from fretting corrosion support process reliability.
Friction reduction
during pressing
The low coefficient of friction promotes smoother sliding between wheel and axle during press-fitting.
Protection of
metal surfaces
The assembly paste helps prevent scoring and fretting corrosion, protecting surfaces subjected to high contact pressures.
High load-carrying
capacity
The load-carrying capacity is verified through testing with a four-ball machine according to DIN 51350, supporting high-stress applications.
