Kilfrost Rail

During cold weather, rail systems that draw power from electrified third rails can be shut down by the formation of ice on the rail. This ice formation prevents conduction of electricity from the rail to the collecting device, and can cause damaging and dangerous electrical arcing. Kilfrost Rail is a high-performance monopropylene glycol based fluid which is applied to electrified third rails during cold weather to prevent ice and other freezing contamination from bonding to the rail.

Kilfrost Rail’s enhanced rheology ensures that the product is sprayable yet bonds to the surface of the rail to offer lasting protection. The fluid is non-toxic, completely biodegradeable and contains additives to prevent corrosion of the rail, rolling stock and other metal infrastructure.
