Rail wear measuring device MUR 45

This tool is a rail vertical (0°) and lateral (45°) wear measuring device and it reads the height dimension of the rail parallel to the base of rail on different rail types and lateral wear value at 45°. The device can be easily attached to the rail base surface and fixes itself with 6 magnets built into its sole part and the side touch is ensured by a stopper. The vertical wear of rail could be read from the vertical scale and the lateral wear value is shown by the 45° measuring scale as a difference from the theoretical value of the railtype.The height position of lateral wear measuring scale should be setted up for the type of rail before measurement. Finally, this device has a big advantage, because it can be used even if there is guard rail or flangeway in the point to be measured.
