What is BS EN 2862 - Anchor nuts about?
BS EN 2862 is a European standard on aerospace series which covers nuts, anchor, self-locking, fixed, 90° corner, with counterbore, in alloy steel, cadmium plated.
BS EN 2862 specifies the characteristics of 90° corner, counterbored, fixed, anchor nuts, with a self-locking feature achieved by forming the upper portion out-of-round, in alloy steel, cadmium plated, MoS2 lubricated.
Who is BS EN 2862 - Anchor nuts for?
BS EN 2862 on anchor nuts is useful for:
- Manufacturers of aerospace equipment and components
- Anchor nuts manufacturers
Why should you use BS EN 2862 - Anchor nuts?
Anchor nuts, also called nut plates, are self-wrenching, self-locking nuts for use in closeout or space constrained areas. Anchor nuts provide a permanent nut element on the inside of the joint so that a skin, access panel, fairing, or other member can be attached with a screw.
Cadmium Electroplating (Nadcap Accredited) Electroplated cadmium is a robust and versatile metallic coating. Cadmium is a soft white metal that, when plated onto steel, cast iron, malleable iron, copper, and powdered metal, functions as a "sacrificial coating," corroding before the substrate material.
When it comes to the manufacturing and use of aerospace components, reliability and consistent performance are crucial. Hence BS EN 2862 walks you through the characteristics of 90° corner, counterbored, fixed, anchor nuts, with a self-locking feature achieved by forming the upper portion out-of-round, in alloy steel, cadmium plated. This ensures safety and reliability in your organization and in turn increases the efficiency of work.
