The bogie is fitted with unit type suspended cast steel brake beam. The<br />
brake head is a separate sub assembly which is fixed with brake beam circular<br />
end by means of pin passing through brake beam end and brake shoe adjuster<br />
along with spring loaded brake head. Assembly provides rotational flexibility<br />
to brake head. Details are shown in Drg No. WD-85084-S/1, WD-88012-S/1<br />
& WD-86034-S/1.<br />
