Key Insights from Primary Research
- Our primary respondents believed the market to witness a steady growth of 3% over the forecast period on account of rising passenger traffic coupled with supportive governmental policies, especially across some Asian and European countries.
- Some of the CXOs predict the aftermarket segment to maintain its dominance throughout 2026 due to the increasing number of local and third-party vendors offering cost-effective and more durable products than OEMs. However, they also conveyed that OEMs are now partnering with local and domestic players to increase their goodwill in the ever-competitive market ecosystem.
- Some of the railway authorities interviewed in Asia-Pacific revealed that the third-party sales channel is expected to generate considerable revenues for the train brake shoe industry. The reason is the increasing number of local vendors opting to serve larger contracts coupled with the easy availability of raw materials.
- Regionally, the Asia-Pacific region is expected to boost the global train brake shoe market. Some of the interviewees said that their future plans are to focus majorly on catering to the railway authorities of China and India. They believe that the Chinese and Indian rail networks are expected to continue witnessing significant growth on account of the ever-increasing population and increasing demand for efficient and comfortable railway transit.
- The automotive and mechanical subject matter experts suggest investing in R&D activities to come up with newer, cheaper, and more efficient railway braking systems. They believe that these advanced systems will witness widespread acceptance across the value chain and even in the aftermarket.
Key Recommendations from Analysts
- Our analysts recommend focusing on the Asia-Pacific train brake shoe market since their calculations revealed that this region turned out to be the top investment pocket across the globe.
- The major reason behind the surging growth and lucrative opportunities underlying in this region is the increasing passenger traffic and rising preference for advanced and more comfortable rail transportation systems.
- Europe, on the other hand, is expected to foresee a robust growth of around 2% per annum. This is majorly attributed to the modernization of the older railway infrastructure, rising renovation activities as well as the formation of newer railway authorities in the developing countries of the region.
- Increasing mining and metallurgical procedures in Latin America, especially in Chile, Peru, and Argentina, is expected to drive the freight type segment in the region. The FnF analysts estimated the freight type segment in Latin America to generate revenues worth USD 20 million by the end of the forecast period.
- The executive summary of the report reads the total incremental opportunity underlying in the global train brake shoe market is nearly USD 130 million between 2020 and 2026.

A brake shoe is an integral component of a braking system that transfers the brake lining used on trains. Brake shoes are friction plates that press against the brake drums to slow the speed of the rotating wheels and stop the train. Brake shoes are necessary for trains to stop them by applying force. This force is used to push blocks onto wheels or pads onto discs.
The increasing number of trains across the globe, rising governmental investment towards the enhancement of the rail network as well as increasing renovation of railway components are some of the key factors driving the train brake shoe market. However, increasing competition among players as well as volatility in raw material prices are some key aspects anticipated to impede the market over the forecast period.
The train brake shoes market is segmented based on train type, product type, and distribution channel. On the basis of train type, the market is classified into freight type and transit type. In terms of product type, the market is bifurcated into OEM and aftermarket. Based on the distribution channel, the train brake shoe market is classified into direct sales and third-party sales.
