Railway Applications - Coating of passenger rail vehicles (ISO 9466:2025)
This document establishes the performance requirements and acceptance criteria for coating material used for passenger rolling stock, locomotives and components.
This document also provides guidance on the coating application processes, product selection, surface preparation, coating application, verification and inspection methods, repairs, refurbishment (refresh, etc.), and tests to measure the minimum performance for the final product.
This document applies to all types of coating materials (liquid, powder, etc.) used on
— railway vehicle bodies, and
— on-board equipment and constituent parts.
Frequently Asked Questions about ÖNORM EN ISO 9466
When you purchase a standard from the Austrian Standards webshop (e.g. ÖNORM, ISO), a single-user licence is included as standard. This entitles a single person to use the standard. A multi-user licence is required if several employees need access. It enables company-wide, legally compliant use and sharing of standards.
Standardization thrives on expertise and participation. Anyone interested can play an active role in its further development – for example, by joining the relevant committee or a working group. In this way, you can help shape the content and contribute to advancing the state of the art.
If you have an extensive portfolio of standards, we recommend using a professional standards management tool. With effects 2.0, you can manage your standards centrally and efficiently. You can optimise your procurement processes and benefit from an integrated information and subscription service. This ensures you are always up to date and never miss any relevant developments.
