B3 gains Network Rail approval for all Axle Counter Cables

Nov. 6, 2009 - PRLog -- B3 Cable Solutions is 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 12th 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-spec cable for mass transit markets. 'Having shared industry expertise to help Network Rail establish cable design parameters, to achieve product acceptance B3 underwent extensive trialling and testing of new materials and constructions to meet the exacting requirements of Network Rail,' says 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.”
