The railway industry relies on the reliability of its infrastructure and rolling stock, which are subject to intense mechanical stress, frictional wear and constant vibration.

Welding is indispensable for the maintenance of rails, switches, metal sleepers, wheels, axles, bogies and braking components.

Electrodes and hardfacing wires are used to correct wear, repair cracks or rebuild damaged areas. High-strength alloys ensure the strength of parts subjected to heavy loads and fatigue. Welding is also used to restore the metal structures of railcars, locomotives and fixed installations.

These operations help to ensure traffic safety, extend equipment life and limit operating interruptions.

A few examples
