This document is limited to specifying the requirements when applying adhesion material to the interface between the wheel tread and the crown of the rail, and includes both trainborne and trackside solutions.

This document only covers the equipment and application of adhesion material to the active interface.

This document defines:

the characteristics that systems for the application of adhesion materials of the wheel-rail interface shall achieve, together with applicable inspection and test methods to be carried out for verification;
all relevant terminology which is specific to the adhesion materials of the wheel-rail interface.

This document only applies to the mainline railway.

NOTE 1

This document can also be used for other railways, e.g urban rail.

NOTE 2

Where technologies are used to influence the wheel/rail interface, other than the application of a material, this document is out of scope but can be used as guidance.
