Global Railway Lubricants Market 2024 by Manufacturers, Regions, Type and Application, Forecast to 2030
According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Railway Lubricants market size was valued at USD 350.9 million in 2023 and is forecast to a readjusted size of USD 430.6 million by 2030 with a CAGR of 3.0% during review period.
Railway Grease is a semisolid lubricant used in in the rail transport sector, which can reduce the friction at the rail-wheel interface, extend rail and wheel life, reduce fuel consumption and reduce wheel squeeze. Grease generally consists of a soap emulsified with mineral or vegetable oil. The characteristic feature of greases is that they possess a high initial viscosity, which upon the application of shear, drops to give the effect of an oil-lubricated bearing of approximately the same viscosity as the base oil used in the grease.
According to the data of China Association of Metros, by the end of 2022, 55 cities in mainland China have opened urban rail transit and 308 operating lines. The total length of operating lines is 10287.45 km, ranking first in the world and accounting for 26.2% of the total global mileage. 1080.63 km of new operating lines were added in 2022. By the end of 2022, 545 cities in 78 countries and regions will have opened urban rail transit, with more than 41,386.12 km of operational mileage. Compared to 2021, the total mileage of urban rail transit worldwide would increase by 4,531.92 km, an increase of 11.0%, of which 1,293.45 km of subway mileage, 788.11 km of light rail mileage and 2,450.36 km of tram mileage would increase, accounting for 28.5%, 17.4% and 54.1% of the total increase respectively.
