FAQ:

1. What makes your damping pads superior to cast/machined alternatives?

• Forged Durability: 3X longer fatigue life (verified per EN 13230) due to optimized grain flow

• Impact Resistance: Withstands 50kN+ dynamic loads without cracking (vs. 30kN typical for cast parts)

• Zero Defects: 100% NDT inspected vs. 2-3% porosity risk in castings

2. What rail standards do your pads comply with?

• Global Certifications:

  ✓ UIC 860V (European railways)

  ✓ AREMA Chapter 30 (North America)

  ✓ GB/T 21527 (China high-speed rail)

3. How do you ensure wear resistance in high-friction applications?

• Surface Engineering:

  • Standard: 400-450HB hardness (+ shot peening)

  • Premium Option: Tungsten carbide coating (600+ HV)
