Die Schienen sind entweder nichtwärmebehandelt und bestehen aus Kohlenstoff-Mangan-Stahl bzw. legiertem Stahl oder sind wärmebehandelt und bestehen aus Kohlenstoff-Mangan-Stahl bzw. niedriglegiertem Stahl.
In dieser Norm sind 21 Schienenprofile festgelegt.
Zwei Schienenklassen sind festgelegt, die sich hinsichtlich der Anforderungen an die Geradheit, die Fahrflächenebenheit und das Kopfprofil unterscheiden. Für die Profiltoleranzen sind drei Klassen festgelegt.

Applications ferroviaires - Voie - Rails - Partie 1: Rails vignole de masse supérieure ou égale à 46 kg/m

La présente partie de la Norme européenne spécifie les rails ferroviaires Vignole symétriques de masse linéaire supérieure ou égale à 46 kg/m, destinés à l'usage des voies classiques et à grande vitesse.
Sept nuances d'acier perlitique sont spécifiées représentant une fourchette de dureté comprise entre 200 HBW et 390 HBW et incluant :
- les aciers non traités thermiquement au carbone manganèse ;
- les aciers alliés non traités thermiquement ;
- les aciers traités thermiquement au carbone manganèse ;
- les aciers faiblement alliés traités thermiquement.
21 profils de rail sont spécifiés dans la présente norme.
Deux classes de rectitudes des rails sont spécifiées, différenciées par les exigences de rectitude, la planéité de la surface et le bombé du champignon. Deux classes de tolérances de profils sont également spécifiées.
