Assessment of pin-brazed and cadwelded bond connections on low carbon austentic manganese steel rail (IM-FM-041)

Last updated on 22 November 2013 2:28

Large numbers of Cadwelded and Pin brazed connections are made to BS11 rail for signalling and Traction bonding purposes. The Cadweld process produces a molten copper alloy by an aluminothermic reaction which fuses the rail surface and the connection (a stud or cable) to produce the bond. The pin-brazing technique...
