Abstract
A new concept of creating steels to provide high resistance of the rolling surface of wheels to wear and damage was proposed, requirements for a set of mechanical characteristics of such steels were developed and chemical composition of steel of a new generation for railroad wheels, as well as heat treatment mode during their repair surfacing were substantiated. 15 Ref., 2 Tables, 4 Figures.
Keywords: high-strength railroad wheels, slid flat, shelled tread, wear, operational reliability
