Aerospace series - Rod ends adjustable double fork and threaded shank - Dimensions and loads

This standard specifies the characteristics of adjustable rod ends consisting of a rod end body with threaded shank consisting of: - a double fork; - a circumferential groove to identify location; - an optional longitudinal groove for locking purposes. These rods ends are intended for use with flight control rods or rods for aereospace structures. The cadmium plating restricts the applicationto temperature not exceeding 235°C

Luft- und Raumfahrt - Einstellbare Doppelgabelköpfe mit Gewindeschaft - Maße und Belastungen

Die vorliegende Norm legt die Eigenschaften von einstellbaren Gabelköpfen fest.Diese bestehen aus : - einem Doppelgabelkopf mit Gewindeschaft ; - der Ringnut zur Kontrolle der Einschraubtiefe; - und eventuell einer Längsnut zur Sicherung. Sie sind für Bediengestänge für Flugsteuerungen oder für Strukturstangen von Luft- und Raumfahrzeugen bestimmt. Die Kadmierung schränkt die Anwendung auf Temperaturen bis 235°C ein.

Série aérospatiale - Embouts réglables a chape double et a tige filetée - Dimensions et charges

La présente norme spécifie les caractéristiques des embouts réglables consitués d'un corps d'embout à tige filetée comprenant: - une chape double; - une gorge circulaire de repérage d'implantation; - éventuellement une rainure longitudinale de verrouillage. Ces embouts sont destinés aux bielles pour commandes de vol ou aux bielles de structures d'aéronefs. Le cadmiage réduit leur utilisation à une température ne dépassant pas 235°C

Overview

SIST EN 2587:2001 is a European standard published by CEN that specifies the dimensional and load requirements for aerospace series adjustable rod ends featuring a double fork and threaded shank. These rod ends are critical components used primarily in flight control rods and various aerospace structural applications. The standard ensures that these components meet stringent quality, safety, and performance criteria required in the aerospace industry.

Rod ends covered by SIST EN 2587:2001 consist of a rod end body with a threaded shank, a double fork designed to interface precisely with mating parts, and specific grooves to assist with location identification and optional locking. The cadmium plating applied to these rod ends restricts their operational temperature to a maximum of 235°C, ensuring durability and corrosion resistance under aerospace operating conditions.

Key Topics

  • Adjustable Rod Ends: Detailed specifications for adjustable rod ends featuring a double fork design and threaded shank for precise mechanical linkage.
  • Dimensional Specifications: Exact measurements and tolerances to ensure interchangeability and compatibility with aerospace flight control systems.
  • Load Capacities: Defined mechanical load limits that the rod ends can safely withstand during operation.
  • Groove Features:
    • Circumferential Groove: Used for location identification.
    • Longitudinal Groove: Optional feature for locking purposes to prevent loosening under vibration.
  • Material and Coatings: Use of cadmium plating to provide corrosion resistance with a thermal application limit of 235°C.
  • Safety and Reliability: Standards aimed at ensuring the structural integrity of rod ends used in aerospace components subjected to dynamic loads.

Applications

SIST EN 2587:2001 compliant rod ends are essential components in aerospace engineering, where precise control and reliable mechanical linkages are paramount. Typical applications include:

  • Flight Control Systems: Connecting control rods and actuators to enable precise movement of control surfaces such as ailerons, rudders, and elevators.
  • Aerospace Structural Assemblies: Serving as adjustable joints in structural rods for load distribution and adjustment in aircraft fuselage and wing assemblies.
  • Maintenance and Repairs: Standardized rod ends simplify component replacement and maintenance in aerospace vehicles by providing consistent dimensions and load ratings.

These rod ends are optimized for aerospace use where operating conditions involve cyclical loads, high safety margins, and controlled environmental exposure.
