B3 Awarded Product Acceptance by Network Rail
11 November 2009
B3 Cable Solutions is the only cable manufacturer in the world holding Network Rail approval for all axle counter cable specifications. B3 is currently celebrating the fact that it is the only cable manufacturer holding Network Rail product acceptance for both RT/E/PS00031 and NR/L2/SIG30060 specifications, having been granted its latest product acceptance on 12 October 2009.
This approval — part of an ongoing product acceptance strategy — reinforces B3’s position as a world leader in the development and production of high-specification cable for mass transit markets. B3 has "shared industry expertise to help Network Rail establish cable design parameters, to achieve product acceptance B3 underwent extensive trials and testing of new materials and constructions to meet the exacting requirements of Network Rail," says B3's rail sales manager, Simon Wade.
Commercial director John Logue added: "We are proud to be leading the cable industry with the next generation of axle counter cables, which compliment our well-established cable designs that have held Network Rail acceptance for over nine years. Product acceptance is a fantastic achievement and, combined with short lead times and competitive pricing, clearly demonstrates our commitment and flexibility to our UK rail customers."
Detailed product information sheets for B3's rail cables — including all variants of both axle counter cables specifications — are available at B3's website.
