For use in applications where severe curves exist or where track may be tight, the Trackmobile Flange Lubricator kits are designed to help reduce the risk of premature railwheel flange wear by placing a constant, light spread of a graphite based lubricant only on the railwheel’s flange. Lube sticks lower rolling resistance, enabling slightly greater drawbar pull and potentially enabling more cars to be moved. The lube material does not migrate to the wheel tread or rail heads, which could cause loss of traction.
