What is BS EN 4864 about?
BS EN 4864 discusses standards for metallic materials for aerospace applications.
BS EN 4864 provides a series of standard testing methods to determine the resistance of flat or curved surfaces against abrasion, scratch, or punch under high dynamics as may occur for example by manually operating actuators or due to impacts of materials like shoes, cases, bags, and other common objects of every day’s usage inside an aircraft cabin. The method is also suitable to test the resistance of a surface against all other high dynamic strains.
Who is BS EN 4864 for?
BS EN 4864 on environmental testing for aerospace applications is useful to these entities:
- Aerospace and Defence Industries
- Manufacturers of aerospace applications
- Spacecraft manufacturers
- Testing agencies involved in the inspection of aerospace products
- Quality control personnel for resistance of flat or curved surfaces
Why should you use BS EN 4864?
BS EN 4864 helps you with test methods applicable for common objects inside an aircraft cabin and the resistance of a surface against all other high dynamic strains.
By adopting BS EN 4864, you can demonstrate the reliability of your aerospace products, and build trust in their use throughout the aerospace supply chain.
As a quality control personnel, BS EN 4864 helps you in testing the resistance of flat or curved for aerospace applications. The determination of the extent of abrasion resistance in metallic materials used for aerospace applications is critical for the optimal performance of the end-use application. If you are responsible for the selection of materials used in aerospace construction and engineering, the test methods recommended by BS EN 4864 can enable you to make the right choice, thereby minimizing the risk of product failure.
You can also use BS EN 4864 for the qualification program to be agreed upon between the manufacturer and purchaser.
