What is BS EN 3916 - Salvage procedure for thin wall inserts about?
BS EN 3916 is a European Standard that discusses components used in the aerospace industry.
BS EN 3916 covers the accepted methods for the reclamation of installation holes for standard thin wall inserts, within assemblies.
The main purpose of BS EN 3916 is to:
- Enable rectification when defects or damage occur to the standard insert tapped installation hole, or to rectify any out of a position of the hole within the specified parameters of use
- To control the machining of the existing insert hole and the installation requirements of the replacement oversize thin wall insert
Who is BS EN 3916 - Salvage procedure for thin wall inserts for?
BS EN 3916 on salvage procedure for thin wall inserts is useful for:
- Manufacturers and suppliers of thin wall inserts
- Manufacturers of aerospace equipment and components
- The aerospace and defence industry
- Product design engineers
- Aeronautical engineers
- National authorities
Why should you use BS EN 3916 - Salvage procedure for thin wall inserts?
When it comes to the manufacturing and use of aerospace components, reliability, consistent performance and durability are crucial. The identification of defects is important in the process of installing holes for thin wall inserts.
BS EN 3916 provides you with conditions of use and re-machining of an existing insert hole and insert and tapped hole particulars, installation of oversize inserts, and also assists you in installation procedures by providing minimum criteria for the installation and removal tools and their methods of application for installation holes for thin wall inserts.
BS EN 3916 specifies assembly procedures and requirements for installation holes for thin wall inserts.
If you are a manufacturer of thin wall inserts used in the aerospace industry, compliance with BS EN 3916 can help minimize risk of application failures arising from potential defects.
By adopting BS EN 3916 you can demonstrate the reliability of thin wall inserts and build trust in their use throughout the aerospace supply chain.
