Low-sided freight wagon

Leveraging state-of-the-art engineering expertise, international standards, and years of experience in railway equipment design, the Iranian Rail Industries Development Company (IRICO) has successfully developed and introduced a low-sided wagon. This wagon is designed to transport heavy, bulky, and long loads, ensuring safe and reliable performance on main railway lines.

The wagon’s chassis is constructed using high-strength St52-3 steel—a robust structure that guarantees the ability to withstand heavy loads and complies with UIC and RIV standards. Additionally, the inclusion of the SA3 coupler system and Y25 LSD1 bogies enhances stability, safety, and compatibility with diverse operational conditions.

Key Technical Specifications

Track gauge: 1,435 mm

Total length: Approx. 20 m

Load capacity: 64 tonnes

Tare weight: Approx. 26 tonnes

Braking system: KE-GP (compliant with UIC standards)

Air reservoirs and braking equipment: Compliant with DIN, EN, and UIC standards

These features make the wagon an ideal choice for transporting industrial, steel, timber, mineral, and structural loads.

Every component of this wagon has been designed based on engineering analyses, precise calculations, and specialized testing. Detailed 2D drawings, parts lists, and technical documentation have been meticulously prepared and are utilized throughout the manufacturing process.

Applications

Transporting long loads such as steel beams, rails, pipes, and profiles
Transporting ultra-heavy industrial loads
Mining, steel, and civil engineering sectors
Transporting specialized loads requiring open, roofless space
The Irico low-sided wagon stands as a symbol of precision engineering, high safety standards, and efficiency in rail transport. Developed in compliance with the latest standards, it is considered one of the best options for transporting heavy loads across the country’s railway network.
