We know rail deterioration happens, but why, and how can we prevent it?🚆

Steel rails are the backbone of railway networks across the country. But, over time, they’re vulnerable to corrosion, rust, and wear. Harsh environments like coastal routes, tunnels, and busy level crossings only magnify the threat of failure.

Our thermal spray coatings and surface engineering solutions are designed to extend rail lifespan, reduce maintenance costs, and minimise downtime.

Real-world results:
✅ Severn Tunnel – HYPERLOY M1034 coated rails installed in 2008 remain in service today.
✅ Dawlish Coastal Line – Coated clips withstand extreme coastal corrosion.
✅ East Coast Main Line – Coated crossing rails dramatically cut replacement frequency.

With decades of experience and a commitment to innovation, Alphatek continues to help the rail industry protect infrastructure and enhance performance through advanced coating technologies.
