Zacens Rail Tank Car & Process Tank Insulation
Turnkey engineering for 200 Zacens tank cars and process tanks with RC Endustri in Sivas; meeting EN 45545-2 railway fire safety, vibration resistance, and extreme thermal shock tolerance.
Heavy-Duty Insulation Engineering in Rail Systems
Railway transportation is one of the most demanding engineering disciplines for industrial insulation due to dynamic vibration, aerodynamic loads, and extreme thermal swings from -30°C winter frost to +45°C summer heat.
As DETA Endüstri, in partnership with RC Endüstri Ulaşım Araçları A.Ş., we successfully completed the turnkey thermal insulation and sheet metal cladding of 200 freight, tanker, and chemical wagons at Sivas manufacturing facilities in a record 10-month period with zero incidents.

RC Endustri 200 Units Zacens Rail Tank Car Insulation Project
Turnkey thermal insulation and cladding of 200 rail freight and tank wagons at RC Endüstri facilities in Sivas over a 10-month production period compliant with EN 45545-2 fire norms, vibration-resilient rockwool mattresses, and DIN 4140 cladded metal protection.
3 Core Engineering Challenges & Our Solutions
Vibration & Fiber Settling
Standard mineral wool collapses under high-frequency rail vibrations creating thermal voids. High-density, vibration-resilient rockwool mattresses secured with welded stainless studs prevent fiber collapse.
Continental Thermal Shock (-30°C / +45°C)
Fourier cylindrical heat conduction modeled per VDI 2055 to prevent freezing or viscosity rise across severe temperature swings in Sivas continental climate.
Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI)
Epoxy primers, moisture barriers, and double-seamed aluminum cladding eliminate moisture ingress from pressure washings and severe rain.
