USM 4015
Description, application
Made of synthetic and natural rubber, these specially designed USM model with its unique shape is tested in this design and stiffness for axle loads up to 35t. Like the other USM models, the mat effectively reduces vibration and shock emissions from rail-bound traffic. The USM 4015 is also suitable for heavy goods traffic to ensure the elasticity and positional stability of the ballast superstructure, especially when solutions with extensive drainage underneath the mat are required.
The USM 4015 is manufactured using high-grade rubber blends. It have a high mechanical load capacity and is permanently weather-resistant. The mats absorb virtually no water, excel thanks to its high electrical insulation resistance and provide drainage on the mat level.
The USM 4015 is suitable for both ballasted and ballastless track systems. This model with a greater stiffness is also used as what are known as transition mats to adapt stiffness in different types of adjoining track sections.
The test for the heavy haul transport is carried out according to DIN EN 17282 category TC 4 with increased requirements and successfully passed.
