Mechanical Parts

Precision Machined.
Built to Last Thousands of Hours.

Structural, drivetrain, and engine assemblies for ALCO, EMD, and GE locomotive platforms; machined to exacting OEM tolerances, CMM verified, and material certified before despatch. Built for the loads, temperatures, and duty cycles that standard aftermarket parts cannot sustain.


Six Core Component Families

From bogie frames to traction motor gear cases, our mechanical range covers the structural and drivetrain assemblies that endure the harshest conditions in locomotive service. Every component is machined to OEM tolerances and dimensionally verified before despatch.

Bogie Components

Structural & Suspension

Side frames, bolsters, spring seats, and damper mounts machined from IS 2062 certified steel. Precise bogie geometry is critical, deviations directly affect ride quality and wheel wear. Every component undergoes full CMM dimensional certification before despatch.

Specifications
ALCO AAR-B bogie compatible
Full CMM dimensional certification
Material certification to IS 2062

Axle Parts

Precision Machining

Axle journals, end caps, dust guards, and bearing housings ground to precise tolerances required for correct fit. Substandard journal finishes cause fretting; our parts are ground to Ra 0.4µm and MPI crack-detection certified to eliminate early-life failures.

Specifications
Ground journal finish to Ra 0.4µm
MPI crack-detection certified
IRIS approved material grades

Coupling Assemblies

Load Tested Casting

Automatic and semi-permanent coupler components including draw bars, knuckles, and yoke assemblies. Manufactured from high-impact cast and forged steel with full proof-load testing at 200% of rated pull force, ensuring operational safety margins.

Specifications
AAR Type E and Type H knuckles
Proof-load tested to 200% rated pull
Interchange compatible with IR couplers

Engine Components

ALCO & EMD Prime Movers

Piston assemblies, liner kits, cylinder heads, and turbocharger-related parts for ALCO 251 and EMD 645/710 engine families. Cylinder liners are honed to IR TMS specification to ensure correct oil retention and ring seating from the first operating hour.

Specifications
ALCO 251B/C/D series coverage
EMD 645/710 piston ring sets
Cylinder liner honing to IR TMS spec

Heat Exchangers

Thermal Management

Radiator cores and lube oil coolers optimised for 50°C ambient operation. Manufactured using high-conductivity aluminium and copper-brass core construction. Every unit is pressure tested to 3× operating pressure before despatch; no exceptions.

Specifications
Pressure tested to 3× operating PSI
Optimised for 50°C ambient operation
Exact OEM core replacement dimensions

Traction Motor Parts

DIN 5 Ground Quality

Gear cases, pinions, and motor components for DC and AC traction motors. Gear tooth profiles are ground to DIN 5 quality — the standard required to maintain drivetrain efficiency and eliminate noise and vibration signalling premature wear.

Specifications
Gear tooth profile DIN 5 quality
D37 / D43 motor compatibility
Noise and vibration tested assemblies

How We Ensure Every Part
Performs in the Field

Mechanical parts fail in service for one of two reasons - incorrect geometry or substandard material. Our manufacturing and inspection process addresses both before a single component leaves our facility.

For obsolete or discontinued components where no OEM drawing exists, our engineering team reverse-engineers from sample parts — measuring, modelling, and manufacturing to the original fit, form, and function specification.
01

CNC Machining

Precision machining to OEM specs or reverse-engineered dimensional data.

02

CMM Verification

Coordinate Measuring Machine inspection against allowed OEM tolerances.

03

Material Certs

All structural steel sourced with full material certification to IS 2062.

04

NDT / MPI

Magnetic Particle Inspection to detect surface cracks invisible to the eye.

Built for the Platform. Engineered to the Specification.

Our components are produced to the specific tolerances, material grades, and fitment requirements of each platform, whether it runs on rail, operates underground, or works at sea.
