BS EN 4078 is a European Standard that discusses components used in the aerospace industry. The purpose of BS EN 4078 is to provide the best industry design requirements for threaded thin wall inserts to ensure they are fit for the intended end-application use.
BS EN 4078 specifies the characteristics of threaded thin wall inserts, locked and with a self-locking feature achieved by deforming out-of-round the internal thread of mid length, in heat resisting steel, MoS2 lubricated.
Classification: 1 100 MPa / 315 °C
BS EN 4078 on threaded thin wall inserts for use in aerospace industry is useful for:
When it comes to the manufacturing and use of aerospace components, reliability, consistent performance and durability are crucial.
BS EN 4078 focuses on dimensions and tolerances requirements and provides guidance on surface treatment and materials requirements of threaded thin wall inserts for aerospace applications.
If you are a manufacturer of threaded thin wall inserts used in the aerospace industry, compliance with these requirements can ensure your products meet the performance needs of the end-application. It creates a standardized approach for manufacturers of threaded thin wall inserts to adhere to if they supply their components for use by the aerospace and defence industry.
With compliance to the best-industry requirements specified in BS EN 4078 you can demonstrate the reliability of threaded thin wall inserts and build trust in their use throughout the aerospace supply chain.
