Roof rim for trams in Karlsruhe When manufacturing and attaching the roof rim for trams in Karlsruhe, it was particularly important to ensure that the adhesive bond was secure. These dualsystem vehicles, which are manufactured by Bombardier, can reach speeds of up to 100 km/h. The GRP roof rim was attached to the vehicle body using an invisible aluminium bracket. The adhesive bonds between the aluminium and GRP were applied in accordance with DIN 6701, Class A1, and thoroughly tested in conjunction with the Fraunhofer Institut. FEM calculations demonstrate the permanent durability ofthe adhesive bond.

- Seals oil leaks, reduces oil consumption - Prevents damage to the environment THE EFFECT Engine seals become brittle and begin to leak in the course of time. THE ADVANTAGES AT A GLANCE - Restores the elasticity of all engine seals - Effectively seals oil leaks - Reduces the oil consumption of the engine - Protects the environment by preventing the contamination of garage floors and parking spaces

ERC NANO 10-9 motor oil additive forms an ultra-thin functional layer in the engine interior and thereby reduces friction, wear and sediments. It improves the oil supply for improved engine performance and lower fuel consumption. THE EFFECT Even apparently smooth metal surfaces turn out to be rough when viewed under the microscope. Friction leads to wear and higher fuel consumption. ERC NANO 10-9 Motor Oil Additive „hardens“ the metal surface by chemical means, forming a smooth protective layer on surfaces subject to high frictional stress by building up chemically active nano structures (“bottom-up”). This leads to optimum engine power and lower fuel consumption. THE ADVANTAGES AT A GLANCE - Highly effective reduction of friction and wear through chemically active NANO structures - Cleans engine and oil ducts free of deposits - Reduces noise and stabilizes oil pressure - Improves stability under load of the basic oil - Protects against oil ageing and corrosion

THE EFFECT The following factors accelerate the formation of sludge deposits (black sludge) in car engines: - Fuel-efficient, „lean-burn“ engine concepts - Inferior-quality petrol and engine oil - Extended driving at excessively low engine speeds THE ADVANTAGES AT A GLANCE: - Removes sludge deposits (black sludge) within the engine - Ensures optimum lubrication - Prevents engine damage caused by blocked oil ducts
