	3.05 Apr. 1993 Definition of Static Unbalance of Commercial Vehicle Wheels made of Steel or Light Alloy.
	This specification covers the static unbalance of steel and aluminium wheels for commercial vehicles (trucks, buses and their trailers). Wheel unbalance is not a process capable feature. A statement can only be made by a large random test.
	3.06 Mar. 1992 Safety Recommendations in Connection with Wear on Rim Flanges of Vehicle Wheels.
	This specification covers safety recommendations for wheels of cars, estate cars, vans and commercial vehicles made of steel or light metal in connection with the wear on rim flanges under extreme conditions as for example sea atmosphere, winter salt resp. granulate, sand or dirt influence etc. This may also indicate overload or underinflation, which in any case must be excluded.
	3.07 Apr. 2003 First Harmonic Measurements and Marking for Motor Vehicle Wheels.
	This EUWA specification covers 1st harmonic measurements of radial run-out for wheels for passenger cars and trucks.
	3.08 Apr. 1993 Wheel and Rim Markings.
	This Euwa specification covers the wheel / rim identification by markings that must be applied on the disc wheel or/and on the rim for passenger cars, trucks, trailers, agricultural machines and earth-moving machines. The general characteristics of such markings comply with the ISO 3911 requirements and in particular are readable on mounted tyres, while the representation of dates must follow the ISO 8601 rules.
	3.09 Apr. 1993 Characteristics for Steel Wheels of Road Vehicles.
	Latest Safety Regulations on product and producer liability given by law do ask for control of adherence by authorities and are forcing Vehicle Manufacturers to always be in a position to prove any action taken regarding quality control. Such action requires most accurate and complete documentation of all processing, measuring and controlling data revealing from the complete mode of production of all of those parts which are marked with obligatory documentation. The producer has to be ready to present such data at any time. Such provision has to be adhered to by the producer himself as well as by sub-suppliers.
	3.10 May 2006 Test Requirements for Caravan and Car Trailer wheels.
	This specification defines the minimum fatigue test requirements for caravan and car trailer steel wheels.
	3.11 May 2006 Test Requirements for Truck Steel Wheels.
	This Euwa Standard specifies, in accordance with ISO 3894, two laboratory methods for testing certain essential strength characteristics of disc wheels and spoke wheels with one piece rims, multipiece rims and segmented rims intended for road use on trucks, buses and trailers. The test methods are: - dynamic cornering fatigue test (90�) - dynamic radial fatigue test.
	3.12 Apr. 2004 Test Requirements for Agricultural Wheels.
	This specification defines laboratory test methods for evaluating certain essential strength characteristics of disc wheels, fixed or adjustable track, intended for off-road use on agricultural tractors, harvesters, trailers and implements. The test procedures are: - Dynamic cornering fatigue test; - Static bending fatigue test; - Connection bracket between rim and disc bending fatigue test; - Dynamic radial fatigue test; - Connection bracket between rim and disc direct load fatigue test.
	3.13 Apr. 1993 Characteristics for Light Metal Wheels of Road Vehicles.
	Latest Safety Regulations on product and producer liability given by law do ask for control of adherence by authorities and are forcing Vehicle Manufacturers to always be in a position to prove any action taken regarding quality control. Such action requires most accurate and complete documentation of all processing, measuring- and controlling data revealing from the complete mode of production of all of those parts which are marked with obligatory documentation. The producer has to be ready to present such data at any time. Such provision has to be adhered to by the producer himself as by sub-suppliers.
	3.14 Apr. 1993 Painting of Aluminium Alloy Wheels: Characteristics, Test Specification
	The following tests and specifications are recommended for aluminium alloy wheels. The actual testing procedure to be employed is subject to agreement between the vendor and the customer and dependent on what is considered appropriate to the application, may contain all or selected parts of these recommendations.
	3.15 Apr. 1995 Stud hole designation truck wheels
	This Euwa specification covers the dimensions of stud holes for truck wheels and the definition of a code to be used as marking on the wheels.
	3.16 May 2006 Standardisation of Fixing Holes - Truck Wheels
	This Euwa-Standard specifies the dimensional characteristics necessary for the attachment of the wheel on the hub. The flat attachment type with centring on central bore (hub centring) is the recommended type for future equipment. The specifications indicated hereafter do not imply that the wheel is interchangeable from one vehicle to another. The fatigue life performance of the wheel can depend on the vehicle�s hub shape.
	3.17 Apr. 1996 Method of Measuring Disc Flatness on Truck Wheels
	This EUWA - Standard specifies measuring diameters and a suggested method to be used to measure disc flatness on truck wheels. Brake drums or brake discs may be distorted when a wheel with an uneven attachment area is mounted. Extent and shape of distortion are influenced by the flatness of the disc. Especially ""roof shaped"" discs may influence brake vibrations. The specification indicated hereafter do not imply that the wheel is interchangeable from one vehicle to another.
	3.18 Apr.1996 Test Requirements for Temporary-use Spare Wheels for Cars
	This specification defines the minimum test requirements of temporary-use spare wheels for cars. Test methods are: - dynamic cornering fatigue test - dynamic radial fatigue test - strength and stiffness test of bolt hole
	3.19 May 2000 Car, Caravan and Car Trailer Wheel + Nut / Bolt Assembly Test
	This specification defines a simple test procedure for checking the compatibility of car, caravan and car trailer wheel bolt holes, with the associated nuts or bolts being used for steel and fabricated aluminium wheels. This specification does not replace any future ISO standard currently being studied (ISO WD 15172) which relates to bolt hole strength performance using a punch and a compression force instead of the wheel fastener and a torque.
	3.20 May 2002 Characteristics of Rim Flanges on Steel Wheels to Fix Balancing Weights
	This specification defines a standard for the shape of flanges of drop centre rims in order to have an optimal condition for the fixation of balance weights. The shape has also to consider the rigidity with optimised use of material and requirements to fix full covers.
	3.21 May 2009 High Speed Wheels for Agricultural Tractors ≥50 kph
	This EUWA specification provides, for standardised disc wheels and adjustable wheels, W and DW contour, for agricultural tractors, radial run out first harmonic high point marking. This marking is used to match-mounting with tyres on wheels to minimise the assembly radial force variation. It has been found that the radial run out has a big influence on the handling of the tractor. Moreover, the amplitude of the vehicle vibration is proportional to the first harmonic of the radial run out of the two bead seats.
	3.22 Apr.2003 Static Stiffness of 15� Drop Centre Truck Steel Wheels
	This specification defines the minimum requirements for static rim stiffness of disc wheels with one piece rim intended for road use on trucks, buses and trailers.
	3.23 May 2006 Biaxial fatigue test for truck wheels
	This EUWA Standard specifies a procedure for checking the truck wheels fatigue behaviour by means of a load history that reproduce different driving conditions. It will be described the test rig type, basic load history and the procedure how to define testing parameters.

	4.02 (Specifications concerning the Stand. Truck-Wheel Pallet System -replaced by ES-4.05)

	4.03 Mar.1994 Data Transmission - EDI Electronic Data Interchange System
	The wheel manufacturers, members of EUWA, agree to recommend the adoption of the ODETTE project as the EDI - Electronic Data Interchange system for the Data Transmission, since it believed suitable for their needs.
	4.04 Apr.1996 Data Transmission - Bar-code System
	The wheel manufacturers, members of EUWA, agree to recommend the adoption of the ODETTE project as the "Bar-code System" since it was believed suitable for their needs.
