BS EN 2589 is a European standard covering specifications for the Aerospace series: Cold rolled Steel sheets and strips that facilitates the identification, material selection and product selection in aerospace applications.
BS EN 2589 specifies the dimensions and tolerances of sheets and strips, cold rolled, in steel, thickness 0.1 mm ≤ a ≤ 3 mm, for aerospace applications.
BS EN 2589 on Aerospace series: Cold rolled Steel sheets and strips applies to:
Stainless steel is one of the most used metals in aerospace equipment. Steel has mechanical properties such as corrosion resistance, strength, and toughness, making it a reliable option for use in the aerospace industry.
BS EN 2589 provides you guidance on required dimensional characteristics such as form, dimensions, thickness, mass, width, length, dimensional tolerances and geometric tolerances that facilitate the application of steel sheets and strips according to chemical properties, mechanical properties, and compatibility with other systems and components.
BS EN 2589 provides you guidance on geometrical tolerances for sheets, including squareness, lateral curvature and flatness that allows you to standardize the dimensions of steel sheets for aerospace applications.
The adoption of BS EN 2589 allows users to develop and assess steel sheets and strips that enhance the thermal and corrosion resistance in aerospace applications.
