Engineered for Extreme Traction: Premium RRV & Shunter Wheel
The Ultimate Wheel Solution for Railway Shunters
Rail cum Road Vehicles (RRVs) and industrial shunters operate in some of the most unforgiving environments. Transitioning between road surfaces and steel rail tracks requires wheels that can withstand immense friction, heavy dynamic loads, and continuous wear. Standard rubber or basic polyurethane degrades quickly under these conditions. As India's exclusive partner for Vulkoprin, Belgium, Gite Industries supplies authentic Vulkollan® wheels designed specifically to conquer the extreme demands of RRV applications.
Key Advantages for Shunting Operations
- Maximum Traction: Superior grip on both tarmac and steel rails, ensuring efficient starting, stopping, and towing of heavy railcars.
- Extreme Wear & Tear Resistance: Highly resistant to the cutting and chunking caused by track debris and rail edges.
- High Load-Bearing Capacity: Capable of supporting the massive weight of the shunter unit without permanent deformation (flat-spotting).
- Safety-Critical Reliability: Predictable, long-lasting performance minimizes the risk of operational failure during critical logistics movements.
Why Vulkollan® Outperforms Standard Polyurethane in RRVs
Vulkollan® is a highly engineered, licensed elastomer technology that is recognized globally as the benchmark for heavy-duty drive and friction wheels. When moving massive rail cars, traction and durability are non-negotiable. Vulkollan® offers exceptional grip on steel rails, ensuring efficient power transmission without slippage, while its extreme tear resistance prevents chunking and catastrophic wheel failure.
