What is BS EN 4265 - Spherical plain bearing about?
BS EN 4265 is a European standard on aerospace series which covers bearing spherical plain, metal to metal in corrosion resisting steel.
BS EN 4265 specifies the characteristics of spherical plain bearings, metal to metal, in corrosion resisting steel, passivated, wide series, inch series for aerospace applications.
They are intended for use in fixed or moving parts of the aircraft structure and their control mechanisms.
Who is BS EN 4265 - Spherical plain bearing for?
BS EN 4265 on spherical plain bearing is useful for:
- Manufacturers of aerospace equipment and components
- Spherical plain bearing manufacturers
Why should you use BS EN 4265 - Spherical plain bearing?
Spherical Plain Bearings (also known as “Spherical Plane Bearings” "Spherical Ball Bushing Bearings" and “Ball Bushings”) have an inner ring with a sphere convex outside surface and an outer ring with a correspondingly sphere, but concave inside surface.
Steel has a certain resistance against corrosion. This so-called passivity is due to a thin and invisible layer of oxides being formed on the surface. This process takes place through a reaction between the metal and the oxygen in the surrounding environment.
When it comes to the manufacturing and use of aerospace components, reliability and consistent performance are crucial, especially in fixed or moving parts of the aircraft structure and their control mechanisms. Hence BS EN 4265 walks you through the characteristics of spherical plain bearings, metal to metal, in corrosion resisting steel, passivated, wide series, inch series. This ensures safety and reliability in your organization and in turn increases the efficiency of work.
