UNSPSC 41112804: Rail abrasion measuring equipment

Equipment that is designed to measure the abrasion condition of the rail installed in order to improve the convenience and secure the safety as a part of management inspection for running rail.

UNSPSC 41112804 Rail abrasion measuring equipment is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement activity covers track inspection services, rail maintenance and repair work, and transit-vehicle overhauls — activities in which agencies assess rail condition, perform preventive maintenance aligned to original equipment manufacturer intervals, and restore critical rail-transit assets to operational specification. The issuing bodies include city transit authorities and municipal transportation departments responsible for passenger rail and spur track systems.
