WHEELSETS WITH ASSEMBLED AXLEBOXES: DESIGN, MAINTENANCE AND STANDARDISATION. REPORT NO. 12--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 B 95 (RP 3 and RP 4), B 98 (RP 9) and S 1002 ((RP 2) are applicable to this standardised wheelset. The wheelset axle is the same as that recommended in B 136/RP 12 for wagons with 920 mm 0 wheels.
