7、:1991 ii BSI 06 March 2002 Foreword This British Standard, prepared under the direction of the Aerospace Standards Policy Committee, was revised in 1983 to allow for the inclusion of a high temperature resistant aramid fibre outer covering of braided rubber cords owing to the increased requirement f

8、or high temperature resistant materials by the aerospace industry. An additional size of 26 mm was introduced. When the cord is covered with aramid fibre, the designation of the product includes the letter “A” (see clause 8). The loadings given in this specification are based on the power rating of

9、the unit area of the rubber cord. This British Standard supersedes BS 2F 70:1983 which is withdrawn. This edition introduces technical changes, notably additional colour indications for 5 year groups, to bring the standard up to date, but it does not reflect a full review of the standard, which will

10、 be undertaken in due course. WARNING NOTE 1. This British Standard calls for the use of substances and/or test procedures that may be injurious to health if adequate precautions are not taken. It refers only to technical suitability and in no way absolves either the supplier or the user from statut

11、ory obligations relating to health and safety at any stage of manufacture or use. WARNING NOTE 2. This British Standard specifies pentachlorophenyl laurate (PCPL) as the only approved rot-proofing treatment for aerospace materials. Alternative treatments are under development, and this standard will

12、 be updated to delete PCPL as soon as an approved alternative treatment for aerospace materials is available. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British

13、 Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Summary of pages This document comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pages i and ii, pages 1 to 7 and a back cover.

23、 coverings shall be made of folded undyed high temperature resistant non-melt natural aramid fibre yarn. Health warning. During manufacture and subsequent cutting and handling of materials containing aramid fibre, dust will be released into the workroom atmosphere. Some of this dust will be in the r

24、espirable size range. Health and safety legislation requires this dust to be controlled, preferably at source, so as to minimize the risk of inhalation so far as is reasonably practicable. 5.2 Construction 5.2.1 The construction of the braid shall be such that, when the cord is stretched to 100 % ex

25、tension as described in Appendix A, the rubber shall not be visible. 5.2.2 The pitch of the braiding shall be uniform throughout the length of cord. 5.2.3 The inner covering shall have a helix of thread of agreed 1)colour running throughout its length to denote the manufacturer of the cord. 5.2.4 Th

26、e outer covering shall have a helix of coloured thread approximating to BS 381C reference number 539 Red running Z-wise (see Figure 1) throughout its length to identify it with this standard. NOTE Refer to 5.3.1 for the application of a second coloured thread to indicate the 5 year group given in Ta

27、ble 4. 5.2.5 Aramid fibre covering shall have an additional helix of coloured thread approximating to BS 381C reference number 592 International orange running S-wise (see Figure 2) throughout its outer cover to identify it as an aramid fibre covered cord. 5.3 Date and markings 5.3.1 In the outer co

28、vering, one or more of the undyed threads shall be replaced by threads running Z-wise (see Figure 1) and spaced apart, of the colours given in Table 3, approximating to those specified in BS 381C to indicate the date of manufacture of the finished cord. After 1991 the colours shall be repeated in th

29、e same sequence as given in Table 3 for each group of 5 years. A second coloured thread, spaced by one helix of undyed thread from the red thread specified in 5.2.4, shall be added to identify the 5 year group. The colour shall be that given in Table 4. 5.3.2 The number of coloured threads to indica

For any application where the loads are critical, however, cords less than 2 years old should be used. 2) Marking BS 3F 70 on or in relatio

41、n to a product represents a manufacturers declaration of conformity, i.e. a claim by or on behalf of the manufacturer that the product meets the requirements of the standard. The accuracy of the claim is therefore solely the responsibility of the person making the claim. Such a declaration is not to

42、 be confused with third party certification of conformity, which may also be desirable.BS 3F 70:1991 BSI 06 March 2002 5 Appendix A Determination of mechanical properties A.1 Test specimen and its preparation Select a test length of 100 mm from each length of finished cord in accordance with clause

43、7. Mark each end of the test length by a pin inserted into the outer braid (taking care not to damage the rubber thread), or by another suitable method, e.g. extensometer. A.2 Test conditions Carry out the test at a temperature of 20 5 C or, in case of dispute, at a temperature of 23 2 C and in a re

44、lative humidity of 50 5%. A.3 Apparatus Use a testing machine complying with the following: a) The tensile testing machine shall comply with grade B of BS 1610, and shall be used in accordance with method 1 of BS 1610. b) The scale range shall be such that loads developed during the test lie between

45、 15 % and 85 % of the full load reading of the scale. c) The grips shall be capable of holding the specimen firmly without damaging the structure of the cord. d) The testing machine shall elongate the specimen at a reasonably constant rate, through the full range of extension required by the test. A

46、.4 Procedure A.4.1 Keep the cord at the test conditions (see A.2) for not less than 24 h before the test. A.4.2 Grip the test specimen in the testing machine with the test length lying between the grips such that each marker is clear of the corresponding grip by not less than 40 mm, stretch it until

47、 the distance between the markers is 200 mm, examine for compliance with 5.2.1 then immediately remove the load. A.4.3 After a rest period of 1 min, reset the markers on the original test specimen to give a test length of 100 mm. A.4.4 Apply the load given in A.3 at such a rate that the time to exte

48、nd from 0 % to 105 % is 70 30 s, taking readings at 10 %, 30 % and 75 % extensions.6 blankBS 3F 70:1991 BSI 06 March 2002 7 Publication(s) referred to BS 381C, Specification for colours for identification, coding and special purposes.
