What is BS EN 2709 - Aluminium alloys for aerospace about?
BS EN 2709 is a European Standard and part of the series of EN metallic materials standard for aerospace applications. The general organisation of this series is described in EN 4258.
BS EN 2709 has been prepared in accordance with EN 4500-2.
BS EN 2709 is a European metallic material standard for aerospace applications and specifies the requirements relating to:
- Aluminium alloy 2024
- T3510
- Bars and sections
- 1,2 mm ≤ (a or D) ≤ 150 mm
- With peripheral coarse grain control for aerospace applications.
Who is BS EN 2709 - Aluminium alloys for aerospace for?
BS EN 2709 on aluminium alloy for aerospace is applicable to:
- Aerospace and defence industries
- Agencies involved in making aerospace applications
- Manufacturers of aluminium and aluminium alloy
- Quality control personnel for aluminium alloy
Why should you use BS EN 2709 - Aluminium alloys for aerospace?
Aluminium bars are used as a building material for roofs, curtain walls, heating and cooling systems, siding, stairs, and much more. It has good conduction properties and characteristics and is hence popular in renovation projects within historic buildings.
BS EN 2709 covers all the requirements for aluminium alloy, bars, and sections. It creates a standardized approach for manufacturers of aluminium alloy to adhere to if they supply their metallic materials to the aerospace and defence industry.
By adopting BS EN 2709, you can demonstrate the reliability of aluminium alloy and build trust in its use throughout the aerospace supply chain.
You can use BS EN 2709 for the qualification programme to be agreed upon between the manufacturer and purchaser.
