Terminology3.1 Definitions: (The following terminology is unique to the Rail Road industry).3.1.1 multi-wear wheel, nwheel that has sufficient metal in the rim for more than two turnings before it must be replaced.3.1.2 one wear wheel, nwheel that has only

18、sufficient metal for the tread to be worn once to condemnable worn hollowcondition.3.1.2.1 DiscussionThere is insufficient metal remaining in the rim to allow turning or truing of the wheel by machining to the standard tread contourand still have enough metal in the rim to support service loads. Wea

19、r refers to the amount of metal on the wheel rim when new.3.1.3 tape size, nrail road method of expressing wheel circumference based on measurement with a steel tape placed aroundthe tread at the taping line.3.1.3.1 DiscussionFor each wheel size there is a calibrated tape. Tape size is expressed as

20、the number of one-eighth increments from the standardtape for the wheel being measured. An AAR approved tape has four lugs to correctly space the tape from the rim so that the tapewill measure on the taping line. The tapeline is always 1 1116 in. from the gage point, which is how the tape gage was d

21、esigned.Some wheel profiles define the tapeline as 3 116 in. from the back rim face; this may not be correct.3.1.4 two-wear wheel, nwheel that has more metal in the rim than a one-wear wheel so that the tread can be worn tocondemnable hollow condition and then be restored by machining to the origina

22、l tread contour. Thus, two tread wear lives areobtained from this wheel.4.
