GOST 10791-2011 PDF

Full title and description

GOST 10791-2011 — Колеса цельнокатаные. Технические условия (All-rolled / solid-rolled wheels. Technical specifications). This interstate standard specifies technical requirements, manufacturing and acceptance rules, dimensional and material characteristics, testing and marking requirements for one-piece rolled railway wheels.

Abstract

GOST 10791-2011 defines the product, quality and conformity requirements for solid-rolled railway wheels used on rolling stock. It covers dimensions, steel grades and chemical/mechanical property limits, heat treatment and hardening, surface condition and allowable defects, sampling and acceptance testing (including non‑destructive inspection methods), marking and documentation necessary for manufacture and supply of wheels. The standard references related international and national normative documents.

General information

• Status: In force / Acting (межгосударственный стандарт — действующий).
• Publication date: Introduced 1 January 2012 (text registered 2011; date of introduction 2012-01-01).
• Publisher: Issued as an interstate (GOST) standard under the system of the Interstate Council for Standardization, Metrology and Certification (EASC) and published via national standard bodies (e.g., Rosstandart / EASC channels).
• ICS / categories: ICS 45.060 — Railway engineering; railway rolling stock.
• Edition / version: Designation GOST 10791-2011 (replacing earlier editions such as GOST 10791-2004 / earlier versions).
• Number of pages: Commercial / repository listings vary (commonly reported as 33–42 pages depending on format and publisher).

Scope

The standard applies to monobloc (one-piece) rolled wheels intended for railway vehicles and establishes requirements covering designations and types, dimensional series and tolerances, material chemical composition and mechanical properties, heat treatment regimes, surface quality, methods and acceptance criteria for destructive and non‑destructive testing, packing, marking and accompanying documentation. It is intended for use where a GOST interstate specification is required or accepted for procurement, manufacture and quality control of solid-rolled railway wheels.

Key topics and requirements

• Product definition and designation of solid-rolled (one-piece) railway wheels.
• Dimensional parameters, tolerances and permitted deviations for common wheel profiles and diameters.
• Steel grades, chemical composition limits and required mechanical properties (tensile, hardness, impact where applicable).
• Heat treatment and hardening requirements (process controls and acceptance criteria).
• Surface quality, permissible defects and finishing requirements (machining, grinding, balancing).
• Inspection and testing — sampling plans, destructive tests, and mandatory non‑destructive tests (ultrasonic, magnetic particle/fluorescent MPI, visual), with acceptance criteria and procedures referenced to national and international methods.
• Marking, labelling, packing, traceability and required documentation for supplied wheels.
• Normative references and harmonisation notes (references to ISO and EN standards, and other GOSTs).

Typical use and users

Primary users include railway wheel manufacturers, rolling stock builders, railway operators and repair depots, quality and testing laboratories performing acceptance and periodic inspections, procurement and conformity assessment bodies, and regulatory agencies involved in rail equipment standards and certification. The standard is used for production specification, incoming inspection, type approval and repair/overhaul acceptance.

Related standards

GOST 10791-2011 cross-references and is related to earlier national GOST editions (e.g., GOST 10791-2004), and to international documents commonly used in the rail industry such as ISO 1005-6 (solid wheels), EN 13262 and regional specifications for wheel steels and NDT. It also sits alongside other GOSTs governing material testing, heat treatment, dimensional metrology and NDT methods.

FAQ

Q: What is this standard?

A: GOST 10791-2011 is an interstate standard that sets technical specifications for one-piece (solid-rolled) railway wheels, including dimensional, material, manufacturing and testing requirements.

Q: What does it cover?

A: It covers product designation, permitted dimensions and tolerances, steel grades and chemistry, mechanical properties, heat treatment, surface and defect limits, sampling and acceptance testing (including ultrasonic and magnetic particle inspection), marking, packing and documentation.

Q: Who typically uses it?

A: Wheel manufacturers, railway operators, repair/overhaul facilities, testing laboratories and conformity assessment or procurement teams use this standard to specify, produce, inspect and accept solid-rolled wheels.

Q: Is it current or superseded?

A: As published/introduced on 1 January 2012, GOST 10791-2011 replaced earlier versions (for example the 2004 edition). Repository listings indicate the standard is in force (acting) as an interstate standard; users should verify if any later amendments or a newer edition have been issued by checking national standard bodies prior to procurement or certification.

Q: Is it part of a series?

A: The standard forms part of a body of GOST documents and referenced international standards covering wheel materials, testing methods and rolling stock components (it cross-references other GOSTs and international standards such as ISO and EN documents relevant to railway wheels and testing).
