BioRail®
BioRail® EP and LF biodegradable rail curve lubricants, prove that you don’t have to compromise performance in order to be environmentally responsible. BioRail has proven itself, not only in the laboratory, but where it counts – on the rail. Its stable chemistry ensures that it pumps in the coldest climates and stands up at the wiping bar in all weather conditions. This lubricant provides outstanding gauge-face lubrication on rail curves.
BioRail LF passes the Modified MITI (OECD 301C) test for ready biodegradability.

BioSwitch™
BioSwitch™ is a biodegradable and clean switch plate oil that protects switch plates from wear. BioSwitch™ has the advantage of being non-staining to hands and clothing. Pourable and sprayable.
- Product: BioSwitch™
- Type: Switch Plate Lubricant
- Base material: Synthetic Oil
- Packaging: Pail, Kegs, Drums, Non-returnable Totes, Bulk
EZ Switch®
Offering a tough, durable, long-lasting shield of protection, EZ Switch® coats the switch plate and reduces wear. As the switch operates, the coating becomes denser in the contact area, enhancing wear protection. EZ Switch can be applied to wet switches and resists rain; this lubricant becomes more resistant to rain as it dries.

Whitmore® FSL – Flange Stick Lubricant
During normal rolling, FSL – Flange Stick Lubricant transfers from the wheel flange to the gauge face/corner and lubricates both surfaces. It reduces the coefficient of friction to as low as 0.10. The result is a substantial reduction in wear on the gauge face, gauge corner, and the wheel flange. Usage FSL – Flange Stick Lubricant can be utilized alone or on a dual bracket with the TSFM – Tread Stick Friction Modifier. The products are typically applied with spring-loaded applicators that prevent cross-contamination.
Standard consumption is approximately 1 inch (25mm) per 1500 miles (2400km).

Whitmore® TSFM – Tread Stick Friction Modifier
During normal rolling, TSFM – Tread Stick Friction Modifier acts as a lubricant. However, when wheel creep occurs, the sliding friction immediately converts to “positive friction,” reaching a friction level of approximately 0.18 – 0.42 between the wheel tread and top of rail. This consequently controls the creep condition and returns the wheels to a healthy rolling motion.
The result is a substantial reduction in creep forces, which reduces corrugations and high-frequency squealing. Standard consumption is approximately 1 inch (25mm) per 2500 miles (4000km).
