BS EN 16914 is a European standard on aluminium and aluminium alloys that discusses the best procedures and specifications on manufacturing high-quality hot-rolled aluminium armour plates. BS EN 16914 specifies the technical delivery conditions relating to armour plates in weldable aluminium alloy with a nominal thickness between 10 mm and 70 mm.
For thickness below 10 mm, other specifications may be applied.
BS EN 16914 on hot-rolled armour plates is relevant to:
Armoured Aluminium is a light, tough and corrosion-resistant alternative to steel with proven ballistic performance and hence, offers good protection without compromising mobility.
BS EN 16914 navigates you through the chemical composition, mechanical characteristics, stress corrosion, geometrical characteristics and tolerances, inspection, quality management and test methods.
BS EN 16914 exemplifies the required chemical composition and mechanical characteristics that help you achieve precision in terms of product specification and functionality.
As a user of BS EN 16914, you can be ensured of technical delivery conditions of armour plates. With BS EN 16914 you can be ensured that the products consistently meet and exceed quality assurance targets. With obedience and compliance to BS EN 16914, you can efficiently manufacture high-quality hot-rolled armour plates in weldable aluminium alloy with a nominal thickness between 10 mm and 70 mm.
