DESCRIPTION
BS EN 14587-3:2026 - TC
This standard BS EN 14587-3:2026 - TC Tracked Changes. Railway applications. Infrastructure. Flash butt welding of rails is classified in these ICS categories:
25.160.10 Welding processes
93.100 Construction of railways
This document specifies requirements for the approval of a welding process in a fixed plant, together with the requirements for subsequent welding production. This document applies to new Vignole rails manufactured in accordance to EN 13674 1 and welded by flash butt welding to crossing components in a fixed plant, and intended for use on railway infrastructures. This document applies to cast Manganese crossings manufactured to EN 15689, fabricated crossings manufactured from rail and crossings manufactured from forged/rolled premium steels. NOTE EN 14587-1 is also used for the flash butt welding of switches. Sometimes special profiles exist in crossing construction, which are not rail profiles as defined in EN 13674 series (example: profile with machined off rail foot). In these cases, tests are defined by the railway authority in participation with the manufacturer.
