BS EN 2338:2001

What is BS EN 2338- Sheets hot rolled in titanium and titanium alloys for aerospace applications about?  

BS EN 2338 is part of the series of EN metallic material standards for aerospace applications. The general organization of this series is described in EN 4258. 

BS EN 2338  specifies the dimensions and tolerances of sheets, hot rolled in titanium and titanium alloys of thickness 0,8 mm ≤ a ≤ 6 mm for aerospace applications. 

Who is BS EN 2338- Sheets hot rolled in titanium and titanium alloys for aerospace applications for? 

BS EN 2338 on dimensions and tolerances of sheets hot rolled in titanium and titanium alloys for aerospace applications is useful for: 

• The aerospace and defence industry
• Manufacturers of aerospace equipment and components  
• Vendors / Manufacturers and suppliers of sheet and strip steel for aerospace 
• Purchase divisions/component sourcing personnel 
• Product design engineers  
• Aeronautical engineers 

Why should you use BS EN 2338- Sheets hot rolled in titanium and titanium alloys for aerospace applications?  

Titanium is used in engine applications such as rotors, compressor blades, hydraulic system components and nacelles. Titanium alloys meant for aerospace applications should have good features such as high specific strength, good high-temperature mechanical properties and excellent corrosion resistance. 

BS EN 2338 provides you with recommendations on the dimensions and masses of the sheets hot rolled in titanium and titanium alloys. BS EN 2338 provides you with dimensional tolerance and geometric tolerance. BS EN 2338 helps you to avoid any kind of defects that could cause quality issues and helps to ensure the functionality of the sheets for aerospace applications.
