2、nd regulations.Note: In the event of conflict between the English and domestic language, the English language shall takeprecedence.1.1 Scope. Organic coat finishes which ensure adequate protection against corrosion on surfaces of road steelwheels.Note: Some sections reference both, GMW Test Procedur

3、es and local Test Procedures. As soon as the GMWis available, it supercedes the local test method.1.2 Mission/Theme. This standard describes the properties of organic coat finishes which ensure adequateprotection against corrosion on surfaces of painted steel wheels. The wheels shall be coated with

4、approvedmaterials. Approved materials are identified in the MATSPC database under 998XXXX-numbers (e.g. 9984120epoxy elpo).Suitable systems may include the following:1.2.1 Single Coat System. Cathodic electrodeposition primer (epoxy or acrylic ELPO).Spare wheels and wheels that are fully covered ( 9

5、0 %) can be painted by epoxy elpo. Acrylic elpo should befor wheels that are not fully covered and for this reason need higher UV-resistance.1.2.2 Multi-coat Systems. Double or multi coat systems (e.g. elpo and top coat or elpo, base coat and clearcoat).The clear coat (powder or wet coat) shall be r

6、esistant against, weathering and chemicals.Acrylic paint for example is suitable.Note: The colored paint coat and the top coat (clear coat) of any multi-coat system when required need onlybe applied to significant and/or visible surfaces as shown on the relevant engineering drawing e. g. the discout

7、er, spoke recess and rim flange.Note: The specific composition of the organic coat finish is not a part of the standard, however pre-treatment,paint system and minimum film thickness of the organic coat finish shall be confirmed by the supplier in writingand are part of the initial sample approval.T

8、he relevant suppliers as well as their material designations of the used pre-treatments and materials shall becommunicated.1.3 Classification.1.3.1 Type A. Single Coat System epoxy elpo black (only wheels which are fully covered or spare wheels).1.3.2 Type B. Single Coat System acrylic elpo black.1.

9、3.3 Type C. Double Coat System (elpo, topcoat). Double-layer types are only permissible for inflatable sparetires.1.3.4 Type D. Multi Coat System (e.g. elpo, base coat, clear coat).2 ReferencesNote: Only the latest approved standards are applicable unless otherwise specified.2.1 External Standards/S
