WHEELSETS WITH ASSEMBLED AXLEBOXES: DESIGN MAINTENANCE AND STANDARDISATION. STANDARDISATION OF WHEELSETS WITH ASSEMBLED AXLEBOXES FOR WAGONS EQUIPPED WITH 1000 MM DIAMETER WHEELS

The wheelset with assembled axlebox and fitted with 1000 mm wheels has been designed: for taking 22 t axleloads; to be interchangeable with existing UIC wheelsets, and for use with two-axled wagons and possibly bogied wagons. It has: a short journal, and a solid rim-sprayed wheel without offset and with curved web. The recommendations of ORE Committees B95 (RP 3 and RP 4), B98 (RP 9) and S 1002 (RP 2) are applicable to this standardised wheelset. The wheelset axle is the same as that recommended in B136/RP 1 for wagons with 920 mm phi wheels.
