2.75 Inch Wide Gap Weld -This process is generally used to replace a defective Thermit or Flashbutt weld.

Head Repair Weld - This is a new process that is used, after a Transverse Defect (TD) is identified, in the head of the rail via an ultrasonic detection car. The rail does not need to be cut all the way through. The defect is removed from the head by grinding, and a Thermit weld is performed to fill the removed area. This unique process is a dramatically significant savings to railroads in labor and material.  However, one of the most powerful advantages is that the Neutral Temperature (longitudinal stress) within the rail is not disturbed.
