上田ブレーキ List of Products and Services

We would like to introduce our "Electrical Insulation Brake Shoes/Insulating Shoes." Maintenance vehicles used for track maintenance and snow removal must ensure sufficient braking effectiveness even during rain and snow, without forming a track short circuit. Especially under conditions where the number of braking axles is small compared to the large towing weight, a braking force that can stop instantly is required, and reliable speed control braking performance is also demanded on downhill slopes. The material of the braking component is made of special cast iron (US light) that satisfies the above performance, and the brake shoes are electrically insulated from the mounting part by an insulating plate. [Types] ■ Type 100, Type 200, Type 600, Rotary Type - Insulation resistance value (measured with a 500V megohmmeter): 100MΩ or more when dry *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

The "synthetic brake shoes" have friction and wear performance suitable for modern railway vehicles. Since the 30th year of the Showa era, the acceleration and weight reduction of vehicles have progressed, leading to the development and practical application of various "synthetic brake shoes" made from inorganic materials and metal powders molded with synthetic resin, as a replacement for traditional cast iron brake shoes. We conduct operations based on strict internal standards, ensuring sufficient consideration for quality stability. 【Features】 ■ Excellent wear resistance (long lifespan) ■ Ability to select the friction coefficient required for vehicles (high f) ■ Minimal fade phenomenon during high-speed braking, with stable friction coefficients ■ Lightweight and excellent workability for replacement ■ Stability of friction coefficients during rain and snow (for snow resistance) *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.

The "Wheel Tread Correction Device / Emery Shoe" can be used while the train is in formation with brake operation. It allows for easy correction of flats and spalling, reducing wheel machining costs. The shape can be designed to fit the holder. It was developed and put into practical use for the purpose of correcting sliding marks and uneven wear that occur on railway vehicle wheels. 【Features】 - Easy correction of flats and spalling - Easy installation with the same shape as the brake shoe - Can be used while the train is in formation with brake operation - Reduces wheel machining costs - The shape can be designed to fit the holder *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce our "Brake Shoes for Track Maintenance Machinery / Construction Vehicles." Large track maintenance machines have been introduced to improve the precision of track structures and enable rapid maintenance work in response to the increasing speeds of railway vehicles. Unlike passenger vehicles, these maintenance machines frequently handle braking and require specially shaped brake shoes due to space constraints. We have developed and commercialized brake shoes that meet these specific requirements. 【Product Lineup】 ■ Synthetic Brake Shoes ■ Cast Iron Brake Shoes ■ Adhesion Enhancing Grinding Shoes ■ Brake Shoes for Track Maintenance Machinery ■ Electrically Insulated Brake Shoes ■ Wheel Tread Correction Shoes *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

The "Increased Adhesion Grinding Material" is widely used in various types of trains, including Shinkansen (bullet trains), conventional trains, express trains, and commuter trains. With the opening of the Tōkaidō Shinkansen in 1964, a wheel tread cleaning device was installed for the purpose of preventing slipping and improving the sensitivity of track circuit short-circuiting. Research and development of the sliding material "Increased Adhesion Grinding Material" has been conducted, leading to its practical application. 【Features】 ■ Cleaning effect on wheel treads (removal of rust and oil) ■ Prevention of slipping and idling (enhancement of adhesion coefficient) ■ Improvement of track short-circuit sensitivity ■ Reduction of vehicle running noise *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
