What is BS EN 4825 about?
BS EN 4825 discusses air melted and consumable electrode remelted hardened and tempered bars for aerospace applications.
BS EN 4825 specifies the requirements for Steel X12CrNiMoV12-3 (1.4938) air melted and consumable electrode remelted hardened and tempered Bars.
Under BS EN 4825 the bars are De ≤ 150 mm and 900 MPa ≤ Rm ≤ 1 100 MPa for aerospace applications.
Who is BS EN 4825 for?
BS EN 4825 on hardened and tempered bars is applicable to these entities:
- Manufacturers of Steel X12CrNiMoV12-3 (1.4938)
- Manufacturers of aerospace materials
- Manufacturers of hardened and tempered bars
- Aerospace and defence industries
- Testing agencies involved in the inspection of aerospace products
- Certification bodies
- Aerospace quality managers
- Aerospace technical specialists
Why should you use BS EN 4825?
Aerospace applications require reliable steel and materials for safe equipment operation. In aerospace operations, component or system failure can place the entire crew at risk so systems must operate with a high degree of strength, durability, reliability, operating environments, and complexity.
Following BS EN 4825 at the design stage, creates a standardized approach for manufacturers of steel that they need to adhere to if they supply their steels and materials for use by the aerospace and defence industry.
BS EN 4825 assists in testing and evaluation of steel ir-melted, and consumable electrode remelted, hardened, and tempered bars to make an efficient and durable product.
By adopting BS EN 4825, you can demonstrate the reliability of your aerospace products, and enhance value across the supply chain, to ultimately improve the operational efficiency of the end-product application.
