There are two bolt hole on each axle box to fit it rigidly with the frame.<br />

On both longitudinal ends, there are two projections in axle box casting, one<br />

on the top and another at the bottom. One common bolt hole is centrally<br />

drilled through both these projections. The outer surface of the projection is<br />

finish machined. The top surface of the projection rests below the<br />

corresponding machined surface of the extended portion of the side frame in<br />

case of cast steel bogies and below the bottom arch bar in case of diamond<br />

frame bogies. The bottom surface of the bottom projection presses the<br />

machined surface of the tie bars in both type of trolleys. The bolt passes<br />

through these holes connecting the three parts together and holds them rigidly.<br />

Two locking plates are inserted in each bolt, one after the bolt head on the top<br />

and the other before the nut in the bottom. After tightening the nut fully, the<br />

locking plates are bent at right angles against the edges of the nut/bolt head to<br />

prevent turning of nut or bolt.<br />

On diamond frame bogies, in order to facilitate proper fitment of the<br />

axle box, the transverse edges on the top projections are chamfered to 3 mm x<br />

45 degree on both sides as per latest modification.<br />
