Low NoiSe emiSSioNSorganic blocks have an improved impact on the wheel.

The polished wheel surface rolls with lower noise over

the tracks. perceived rolling noise levels are reduced by

50% compared to Ci blocks.

Low weiGHTknorr-bremse blocks have much lower weight than

cast iron blocks (70% less).

n block replacement: easier handling for workers

n 12 > 4 kg

n reduced weight means greater transportation

efficiency and lower energy consumption

No SpARKSCi blocks have a higher tendency to spark during brake

application. The organic blocks from knorr-bremse

generate no sparks and protect the environment from

fire hazards.
