Curving noise in rail systems poses significant environmental and health challenges. Our friction modifiers such as gauge face grease (GF), restraining rail (RR), and top of rail friction modifiers (TOR FM) can be used to effectively mitigate this issue. Zoë Loveday, Sales Manager, published an article that explores comprehensive noise mitigation strategies, field test results and real-world applications, and the role of friction modifiers in reducing various types of rail noise. Visit our website to download the white paper: https://lnkd.in/euw6FAjP.
