EN 2335:2005 - Aerospace series - Bearings, spherical plain in corrosion resisting steel without assembly slot - Dimensions and loads

1 Scope
This standard specifies the characteristics of spherical plain bearings in corrosion resisting steel, without assembly slot, with or without swaging groove, with or without lubrication holes and grooves, intended for use in fixed or moving parts of aircraft structure and control mechanisms.
They may be used in the temperature range from – 54 °C to 150 °C.
However, as they are lubricated with the following greases (see EN 2337):
ester type very high pressure grease (code letter A), operating range from – 73 °C to 121 °C or,
synthetic hydrocarbon type very high pressure grease general purpose (code letter B), operating range from – 54 °C to 177 °C.
Their field of application when lubricated with grease code letter A is limited to 121 °C.

∆ d s
: deviation of a single bore diameter
∆ D mp
: single plane mean outside diameter deviation
∆ D s
: deviation of a single outside diameter
α : angle of tilt of the outer ring with respect to the inner ring, the spherical surface of the outer ring being completely in contact with the inner ring
