Wheel cleaner

Aside from atmospheric pollution, metal particles such as copper and iron, create a dirty appearance. These particles are released by friction over the rails, power cables, pantographs, brakes, etc. During cleaning, often products are used that contain harmful substances such as NTA and/or hydrofluoric acid. Acid-based products can cause corrosion, especially if insufficient rinsing is done.

Safe alternative to traditional wheel cleaner

Traditional wheel cleaners are often aggressive. A safe alternative is Raileco 105 NF. This very powerful, concentrated cleaner is used to clean rapid transit cars, trams, buses and trains. It can be used manually and using foam cleaning equipment. The product is free of NTA, hydrofluoric acid or other corrosive acids, which helps prevent rust formation. Raileco 105NF is suitable for the periodic ‘baseline cleaning’ to bring vehicles back to the desired level and also for periodic washing. The multifunctional Ecosem is also a suitable alternative to traditional wheel cleaner. Ecosem eliminates grease, dirt, limescale and soap residues. Also in wet areas. Ecosem also easily removes cement residue, concrete laitance, algae, rust and copper deposits.

What is wheel cleaner?

When braking, a little brake dust or brake grit from the brake discs falls onto the rims. This is burnt metal or brake lining particles that burn into the surface of the rim. Among other things, wheel cleaner is used to remove brake dust and to get your rims nice and clean again.

How does wheel cleaner work?

It is best to apply this type of cleaner to a dry, cool rim. Raileco 105 NF has natural surfactants that reduce the surface tension of the cleaning solution such that the product even penetrates hairline scratches to provide deep cleaning.
