Overview
EN 2067:1996 - Aerospace series - Rod ends with self-aligning ball bearings - Technical specification (adopted as SIST EN 2067:2001) is a CEN aerospace standard that defines the required characteristics, inspection and test methods, and the qualification and acceptance conditions for rod ends fitted with self‑aligning ball bearings. The standard applies to components intended to withstand slight swivelling and slow rotations under load and is to be used wherever it is referenced in procurement, design or certification documentation.
Key topics and requirements
The standard focuses on practical and safety‑critical aspects of rod ends with self‑aligning ball bearings. Core technical topics include:
- Required characteristics - the functional and dimensional attributes necessary for aerospace use (performance, geometric form, marking and traceability).
- Inspection and test methods - procedures to verify conformity (visual inspection, dimensional checks and functional tests) as specified by the standard.
- Qualification conditions - criteria and testing sequences required to qualify a design or production process for aerospace applications.
- Acceptance conditions - sampling, acceptance criteria and documentation needed to release parts to service.
- Scope limitation - intended specifically for rod ends that permit only slight swivelling and slow rotation under load (not for bearings intended for continuous or high-speed rotation).
Keywords integrated naturally: EN 2067, rod ends, self-aligning ball bearings, aerospace standard, inspection and test methods.
Applications
EN 2067 is applicable across the aerospace supply chain wherever rod-end bearings are specified for mechanical linkages that experience limited angular movement:
- Aerospace component manufacturers producing rod ends with self‑aligning ball bearings
- Design engineers specifying bearing end‑links in airframe and systems assemblies
- Quality and inspection teams applying acceptance and test criteria during incoming inspection and production control
- Procurement and suppliers using the standard to ensure part compliance and traceability
- Certification and maintenance organizations referencing qualification and acceptance evidence
Using EN 2067 helps ensure consistent safety, interchangeability and traceability of rod end components in aerospace applications.
Related standards
- Issued by CEN and listed under ICS 49.035 (Components for aerospace construction).
- Adopted nationally (e.g., SIST EN 2067:2001).
Where EN 2067 is referenced in design specifications or procurement documents, it sets the mandatory technical and inspection requirements for rod ends with self‑aligning ball bearings.
