Tracking Advances in Polymer Components for Improved Safety, Reliability, and Efficiency

The US rail industry is a literal economic engine in this recession recovery, as rail companies plan an estimated $12 billion in improvements to rail networks this year alone.

But as investments and traffic grow, so, too, does the call for higher rail safety, reliability and efficiency standards. An important means of acheiving these goals are durable alternatives to traditional building materials such as steel, bronze and wood.

Our free white paper addresses common questions including:

• Are composite bearings reliable?
• Can polymer materials enhance safety?
• How can polymer materials improve rail efficiency?
• What are some specific rail industry applications for composite bearings and polymer fabricated parts?
