What is BS EN 4033 - Rigid single row ball bearings for use in aerospace about?
BS EN 4033 is a European Standard that discusses components used in the aerospace industry. The purpose of BS EN 4033 is to provide the best industry requirements for rigid single row ball bearings such that they are fit for the intended end-application use.
BS EN 4033 specifies the characteristics of rigid single row ball bearings, in corrosion resisting steel, reduced internal radial clearance, diameter series 8 and 9, designed to withstand only slow rotations and oscillations under load.
They are intended for use between fixed and moving parts of the aircraft structure and their control mechanisms. They are intended to be used in the temperature range: – 54 °C to 150 °C.
However, being lubricated with the following greases:
- Very high pressure grease, ester type (code A), operational range – 73 °C to 121 °C
- Very high pressure grease, synthetic hydrocarbons, general purpose (code B), operational range – 54 °C to 177 °C (see EN 3280)
Who is BS EN 4033 - Rigid single row ball bearings for use in aerospace for?
BS EN 4033 on rigid single row ball bearings for use in aerospace is useful for:
- Manufacturers and suppliers of rigid single row ball bearings
- Manufacturers of aerospace equipment and components
- The aerospace and defence industry
- Product design engineers
- Aeronautical engineers
- National authorities
Why should you use BS EN 4033 - Rigid single row ball bearings for use in aerospace?
When it comes to the manufacturing and use of aerospace components, reliability and consistent performance and durability are crucial.
BS EN 4134 guides you through dimensions and surface treatments for rigid single row ball bearings, along with reference standards to be considered when it comes to materials and technical specifications for the same.
It creates a standardized approach for manufacturers of rigid single row ball bearings to adhere to if they supply their components for use by the aerospace and defence industry.
If you are a manufacturer of rigid single row ball bearings used in the aerospace industry, compliance with these requirements can ensure your products meet the performance needs of the end-application.
With compliance to the best-industry guidance specified in BS EN 4033 you can demonstrate the reliability of rigid single row ball bearings and build trust in their use throughout the aerospace supply chain.
