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°.
Furthermore, is featured with two more lateral measuring styli for the determination of the wear of the running edge – in 22,5° and 67,5° relative to the ventral axis of the rail.
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.
