Steel tyres of 8 tram wheels (initial diameter 655 mm) were covered with the new SURM-RK metaplating agent and studied for friction wear under operational conditions. Use of the metaplating agent resulted in a substantial decrease in wear of the wheels. A decrease of the wheel diameter from 655 mm to 611 mm to 618 mm for the untreated wheels and only to 621 mm to 627 mm for the metaplated wheels was found in long-term-tests after runs of about 348000 km.
