General Information
Overview
EN 13913:2003 - Railway applications - Rubber suspension components - Elastomer-based mechanical parts (CEN) specifies the characteristics, verification methods and supply/approval procedures for elastomer-based mechanical parts used in railway suspension systems. The standard sets out inspection and test methods, qualification and approval processes, and quality monitoring requirements to ensure consistent performance of rubber suspension components in railway engineering.
Key topics and requirements
- Characteristics and definition: Defines functional, physical and geometrical characteristics including space envelope, mass, dimensions under load and force–displacement behaviour.
- Environmental resistance: Requirements and test methods for performance under low/high temperature, ozone, oils and petroleum products, chemicals, abrasion, fire behaviour and corrosion.
- Operating resistance: Tests and criteria for fatigue resistance, static and dynamic creep, static and dynamic relaxation, and other operational durability aspects.
- Functional performance: Measurement of stiffness (including sinusoidal motion), damping, and force as a function of displacement at controlled velocities.
- Inspection & test methods: General test conditions, instrumentation, preparation of test pieces, specific procedures for environmental and operating tests, and recommended measurement velocities.
- Documentation & approval: Documents to be supplied by customer and supplier, customer approval procedure, product qualification and traceability requirements.
- Quality monitoring: Supplier production plant qualification, product approval, ongoing quality surveillance and marking requirements.
- Supporting annexes: Informative guidance on test-fixture design and parasitic deformation analysis, fatigue test programmes (staircase and programmed blocks methods), recommended tolerances/acceptance criteria, measurement velocities, and traceability/qualification.
Applications
EN 13913:2003 is intended for specification, testing and supply of rubber suspension components and elastomer-based mechanical parts used in railway vehicles and infrastructure. Typical practical applications include:
- Primary and secondary suspension elements in bogies
- Vibration isolation components and elastomeric bearings
- Any elastomeric mechanical parts requiring validated performance under railway environmental and mechanical loads
The standard helps ensure components provide reliable stiffness, damping and durability across service conditions.
Who should use this standard
- Railway vehicle designers and system engineers specifying elastomer parts
- Component manufacturers and suppliers for product design, testing and quality control
- Procurement and approval authorities responsible for supplier qualification and acceptance
- Test laboratories performing environmental and fatigue testing for railway components
