Scope

GB/T 8602-2026 is the English-translated version of 铁路用粗制轮箍.

GB/T 8602-2026 covers rough-rolled tyres for railway use, the wheel rims supplied before final machining. It sets dimensional limit deviations and geometric tolerances, technical requirements, test methods, inspection rules, marking, quality certificates, packaging, transport and storage.

Compared with the 1988 edition, it raises the locomotive and rolling stock speeds and axle loads covered, adds a definition of the rough-rolled tyre, and drops the Class A and Class B grading and the wheel rim dimension specification.

It applies to the manufacture, ordering and inspection of rough-rolled tyres for locomotives, rolling stock and other vehicles. Issued on 2 July 2026 and applicable from 1 February 2027, it replaces GB/T 8602-1988.

Foreword

This document conforms to GB/T 1.1-2020 "Standardization Work Guidelines Part 1: Structure and Drafting Rules of Standardization Documents".

This document supersedes GB/T 8602-1988 "Crude Wheel Hoops for Railways". Compared with GB/T 8602-1988, except for structural adjustments and compilation... Aside from the logical changes, the main technical changes are as follows.

a) Increased the applicable locomotive and rolling stock speeds and axle loads for coarse wheel rims (see Chapter 1);

b) A definition for coarse wheel rims has been added (see Chapter 3);

c) The classification rules for Class A and Class B wheel rims have been deleted (see Chapter 3 of the 1988 edition).

d) The specification for wheel rim dimensions has been removed (see Chapter 4 of the 1988 edition);

e) The grade LG70 was added (see 5.1);

g) The requirements for the sampling location in the impact test have been changed (see 5.3.2, 5.4.2 in the 1988 edition).

h) Surface hardness testing requirements have been added (see 5.3.4);

i) Added requirements for microstructure and grain size, and changed the requirements for non-metallic inclusion levels (see 5.5, 5.7 in the 1988 edition).

j) The requirements for low magnification structures have been changed (see 5.6, 5.6 in the 1988 edition).

k) The requirements for ultrasonic testing have been changed (see 5.7, 5.8 in the 1988 edition).

l) The requirements for logo printing have been changed (see 7.1);

m) Hydrogen content detection has been added (see Appendix A).
