BS EN 2014:1989

What is BS EN 2014 - Airframe bearings about?

BS EN 2014 is a European Standard. BS EN 2014 specifies the characteristics of rigid single row ball bearings of diameter series 0 and 2¹⁾ designed to withstand only slow rotations and oscillations under load. They are intended for use between fixed and moving parts of the aircraft structure and their control mechanisms.  BS EN 2014 discusses scope, fields of application, references, definitions, and much more in detail.

Who is BS EN 2014 - Airframe bearings for?
BS EN 2014 on airframe bearings is useful for:

• Manufacturers and suppliers of spherical bearings
• Mechanical and product design engineers
• Aerospace and aircraft Companies
• Aerospace and defence Industries
• Aerospace and aeronautical engineers
• Entities involved in technology research
• Ball and roller bearing manufacturers
• Engineering equipment and materials users
• Production engineers
• Testing agencies involved in the inspection of aerospace products

Why should you use BS EN 2014 - Airframe bearings?

When it comes to the manufacturing of airframe bearings, reliability, and high performance are important. Airframe bearings have a great load capacity, are resistant to misalignment, and are heat treated. They are also required to be corrosion resistant to prevent oxidization and improve durability.

BS EN 2014 specifies the characteristics of rigid single row ball bearings of diameter series 0 and 2¹⁾ designed to withstand only slow rotations and oscillations under load. BS EN 2014 is intended for use between fixed and moving parts of the aircraft structure and their control mechanisms.

Using BS EN 2014 will help manufacturers with producing reliable products of high quality.  BS EN 2014 will also assure the credibility of bearings and help in maximizing safety.
