Wabtec — Westinghouse Air Brake Technologies Corporation — is an American rail-equipment company founded in 1869 by George Westinghouse, inventor of the railway air brake. Headquartered in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Wabtec is one of the world's largest suppliers of locomotives, freight-car components, braking systems, and rail electronics, following its merger with GE Transportation. Its products serve freight and passenger railways across the globe. In Pakistan, Wabtec technology is relevant to Pakistan Railways' locomotive fleet, which includes GE-derived diesel-electric locomotives, making Wabtec-compatible locomotive parts, braking components, and rail systems important for maintenance. For rail workshops and suppliers, genuine Wabtec parts ensure compatibility with the installed locomotive base.
