Electric Locomotives
- Grey Track carbon brushes are used in 95% of DC traction motors in locomotives operating in passenger and freight transport in the Czech Republic and Slovakia
- Our carbon brushes are also approved for use by PKP Cargo and PKP Intercity in Poland
- The exceptional service life of Grey Track carbon brushes dramatically reduces maintenance costs
Industry & Energy
Premium-grade materials for a long service life = reduced maintenance costs Carbon brushes for DC motors in heavy industry Carbon brushes for synchronous and asynchronous electrical machines
Direct Current (DC) Motors
Our carbon brushes deliver excellent performance in the main drive motors of rolling mills in steel mills, where their long service life reduces maintenance costs
Synchronous (AC) Electric Machines
Carbon brushes for turbogenerators in nuclear power plants and generators in hydroelectric and pumped-storage power plants
Asynchronous (AC) Electric Machines
We also manufacture carbon brushes for slip-ring asynchronous machines, primarily high-voltage applications, including starting motors in power plants and motors used in cement plants and ceramics manufacturing facilities.
Grounding Systems
A wide range of metal-graphite materials for railway vehicle grounding brushes Effective grounding of electric machine shafts to protect bearings
Rail Vehicle Grounding Systems
Grounding brushes for the FROST system, supplied as original replacement parts
Bearing Protection Kit (BPK)™ Shaft Grounding
