Overview
This standard specifies the characteristics of spherical plain bearings, metal to metal, in corrosion resisting steel, passivated, wide series, inch series for aerospace applications. They are intended for use in fixed or moving parts of the aircraft structure and their control mechanisms. They shall be used in the temperature range -54 °C to 150 °C. As they are lubricated by means of the following greases: Code A: Grease as per MIL-PRF-23827C, operating temperature range -73 °C to 121 °C. Code B: Grease as per MIL-PRF-81322G, operating temperature range -54 °C to 177 °C. The range of application for bearings lubricated with grease per code A is limited to 121 °C. In both cases the spherical surface of the outer or inner ring have to be provided with a dry-film lubricant as per MIL-PRF-46010F or equivalent (anti-seizing protection). The slide hole treatment either at the outer ring or inner ring. This standard EN 4265:2010 has been prepared by ASD-STAN, Technical Section Metallic Materials, with the participation of German experts of the Aerospace Standards Committee. The responsible German standardization committee is Working Committee NA 131-03-03 AA "Teile der mechanischen Systeme" ("Components of mechanical systems") of the Aerospace Standards Committee NL at DIN.
