Thermit welding offers several advantages for railways tracks, making it a popular choice:

  1. Longer Lifespan: Thermit welding creates continuous, seamless joints that are stronger than the original rail material. These joints are free of voids, porosity, and defects, ensuring durability.

  2. Lower Maintenance Costs: The process produces joints resistant to fatigue, reducing the need for frequent repairs. This cost-effectiveness benefits rail manufacturers.

  3. Increased Safety: Reliable joints enhance passenger and employee safety, as they withstand heavy loads and stress.
