ABSTRACT:
A process for improving the performance and extending the life of railroad brake assemblies includes coating the components of the brake assembly with a powder. The powder coating may include an epoxy, a polyester or combinations thereof. After the selected components of the railroad car brake assembly are sprayed with the powder, the components are heated in an oven for curing the powder to form a coating on the components. The components of the railroad car brake assembly which may be coated include a cylinder body, a lock plug, a push rod end, a piston body, and a release spring. The powder coating of the railroad car brake assembly reduces corrosion, reduces abrasion, maintains slippage due to reduced friction, and reduces the amount of repairs and replacement of the railroad car brakes.
