http://www.oberoithermit.com/images/thermit1.jpg Welcome to Oberoi Thermit Pvt. Ltd. .............................................................................................................. Indian Railways, one of the largest railways in the world has come a long way in terms of development, and even today it is a very fast improving organization. The backbone of every railway organization is it’s track, and the comfort and safety provided by the track depends largely on the Thermit weld. Thermit welding provides a fast and economical method of joining the rails at site. It enables high speeds, more safety and longer life of rails and the rolling stock. It also improves the quality of the weld joint due to a reduced Heat Affected Zone (HAZ).
