Lubricants for railways and rail vehicles – Maximum reliability with ADDINOL

Rail vehicles are subjected to extreme stresses such as high compressive forces, significant temperature fluctuations and continuous operation. Specialised lubricants from ADDINOL are precisely tailored to these conditions and ensure reliable wear protection and maximum operational reliability.

A variety of lubricants are used in the railway sector, including:

• Engine oils for diesel engines
• Gear oils for drive systems
• Greases for bearings and bogies
• Speciality lubricants for flange and rail contact

ADDINOL offers suitable high-performance lubricants for all these applications.
