Rail Vehicles

Rail vehicles such as trains, trams, or subways require maximum safety, precision, and reliability.

Rod ends, spherical plain bearings, and coupling rods perform central functions in critical components, from braking systems and door mechanisms to couplings. Only high-quality components guarantee long-lasting function while ensuring the comfort and safety of passengers.

FLURO offers a comprehensive selection of rod ends and spherical plain bearings specifically tailored to the requirements of rail vehicles. Our components are designed for high loads, enable precise movements, and minimize maintenance requirements.

Typical application areas in rail vehicles

  • Braking systems and brake linkages
  • Door and sliding door mechanisms
  • Couplings and connecting elements between wagons
  • Chassis and axle systems

For extreme environmental conditions, we offer special seals and surface treatments that reliably repel corrosion, dirt, and moisture. This makes our solutions also suitable for vehicles operated in changing weather conditions or in outdoor use.

When standard parts are not sufficient, FLURO develops customized individual solutions for rail vehicles. Based on many years of experience, we manufacture precise rod ends, spherical plain bearings, and coupling rods according to customer drawings or for specific applications – for maximum load capacity, reliability, and durability.

With our components, manufacturers and operators benefit from a combination of technical excellence, long service life, and low maintenance costs, perfectly tailored to the demanding conditions of rail transport.
