This document applies to wheelsets and axle boxes complying with the following European standards:

EN 13103-1:2017;

EN 13260:2020, EN 13261:2020, EN 13262:2020;

fitted with brake discs, final drive, transmission or noise-damping systems, as appropriate;

not complying with the above European standards, but complying with the international requirements in force, for example in UIC leaflets, before the approval of these standards;

with tyred wheels;

with resilient wheels.

For equipment not covered by Directive 2016/797/EC, this European Standard may be applied, noting that different values may be used.

All dimensions in this document are in millimetres (mm).

It is necessary to describe in a specific document the tasks to be performed in order to maintain wheelsets within the limits defined therein.

NOTE The specific values and criteria are defined in an appropriate maintenance plan.
