BS EN 3470:2019

What is BS EN 3470 - Steel for aerospace about ?  

BS EN 3470 is a European metallic material standard for aerospace applications and specifies the requirements relating to: 

• Steel FE-PM1503 (X3CrNiMoAl13-8-2) 
• Vacuum induction melted and consumable electrode remelted 
• Solution treated and precipitation treated Forgings 
• a or D ≤ 150 mm 
• 1 200 MPa ≤ Rm ≤ 1400 MPa 

BS EN 3470 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 2320 has been prepared in accordance with EN 4500-003. 
BS EN 3470 covers all the requirements for steel FE-PM1503, vacuum, forgings. It creates a standardized approach for manufacturers to adhere to if they supply their metallic materials for use by the aerospace and defence industry.
