Abstract

The braking system is one of the supporting factors for safety and security on trains. In railway braking systems in various countries, composites have been used as brake shoe materials because composites meet several criteria to replace cast iron brake shoes. Nylon has been used in various automotive industries because of its heat resistance, self-lubricating properties, wear resistance, high strength and modulus of elasticity. Nylon has the potential to be developed into composite fibers that are applied in braking systems for railways. Composites are made from a mixture of 25% nylon fiber, 40% iron sand and 35% epoxy resin. The tests carried out are hardness test with shore D hardness test and wear test using Ogoshi High speed Universal Wear (OAT-U type). The results of the hardness test showed that the composite hardness was 88.5 HRR and the composite strength value was 2,26629 × 10–7 mm2/Kg.
