General Information
Overview
EN 2290-1:1998 is a European standard developed by CEN that defines the specifications for aerospace rod bodies used in flight control systems. Specifically, it covers flight control rods made from aluminium alloys designed for adjustable end fittings. These components are critical in ensuring the precise and reliable operation of aircraft control surfaces.
This standard focuses on the dimensions and load requirements for these rod bodies, ensuring their performance under varying operational conditions. It applies to materials expected to perform consistently within a temperature range of -55°C to +120°C, accommodating the rigorous environments encountered in aerospace applications.
Key Topics
- Material specification: Rod bodies made from aluminium alloy tailored for aerospace flight control applications.
- Adjustable end fittings compatibility: Standardized interface dimensions to accommodate various adjustable fittings used in flight control assemblies.
- Dimensional requirements: Detailed measurements that ensure interchangeability, precision, and compliance with aerospace engineering standards.
- Load capacities: Defined mechanical load limits critical for maintaining safety and functionality during flight operations.
- Temperature performance: Ensures rod bodies maintain structural integrity and mechanical properties from extreme cold (-55°C) to high heat (+120°C).
