7、roperties 4 Publication(s) referred to Inside back coverBS 3F 71:1991 ii BSI 05 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 cover

8、ing of braided rubber cords owing to the increased requirement for high temperature resistant materials by the aerospace industry. The additional sizes 4 mm, 5.5 mm and 11 mm were introduced. When the cord is covered with aramid fibre, the designation of the product includes the letter “A” (see clau

9、se 8). The loadings given in this specification are based on the power rating of the unit area of the rubber cord. Reference to cord manufactured from natural rubber latex has been deleted. This British Standard supersedes BS 2F 71:1983 which is withdrawn. This edition introduces technical changes,

10、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 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

11、 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 statutory obligations relating to health and safety at any stage of manufacture or use. WARNING NOTE 2. This British Standard specifies pentachlorophe

12、nyl laurate (PCPL) as the only approved rot-proofing treatment for aerospace materials. Alternative treatments are under development, and this standard will be updated to delete PCPL as soon as an approved alternative treatment for aerospace materials is available. A British Standard does not purpor

13、t to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Summary of pages This document comprises a front cover, an inside front cov

15、 sizes from 3 mm to 11 mm in diameter. These cords are suitable, when cut into unit lengths, for parachute pack opening devices, light-weight suspensions and other aeronautical purposes. It is intended that these cords are used for cord assemblies manufactured in accordance with BS SP 170-171. NOTE

16、1 The titles of the publications referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back cover. NOTE 2 The latest revision of an Aerospace Series standard is indicated by a prefix number. 2 Construction The cord shall be of multiple threads of rubber, under tension, tightly encased in braid, and

17、shall be smooth and uniform. 3 Diameter When measured by a micrometer or slide gauge, the overall diameter of the cord, including the braid, shall be 3, 4, 5, 5.5, 6.5, 8, 9.5 or 11 mm, and the tolerance on each of these diameters shall be 5%. 4 Rubber thread 4.1 Quality The thread shall be made fro

18、m first grade natural rubber, not lower than Grade 5 of ISO 2000, suitably compounded with accelerators and non-bleeding antioxidants, and heat vulcanized, and shall be as given in Table 1. No reclaim, vulcanized oils (factice) or other rubber substitute shall be used. 4.2 Size and number Only one s

This does not, provided the storage conditions have been satisfactory, imply that the cords are unserviceable for general purposes.

41、For any applications where the loads are critical, however, cords less than 2 years old should be used.BS 3F 71:1991 BSI 05 March 2002 5 8 Designation The cord shall be identified by the number of this British Standard together with the diameter, length and type of outer covering required. When the

42、cord is covered by aramid fibre, the number of this British Standard shall be suffixed with the letter “A”. For example, 6.5 mm diameter cord 50 m long shall be identified as “BS 3F 71/6.5/50 m” 2) , when braided with cotton covering, or as “BS 3F 71/A/6.5/50 m”, when braided with aramid fibre cover

43、ing. 9 Packaging, storage and use 9.1 Finished cord shall be packaged in accordance with BS 3F 69 and shall be stored in accordance with BS 3F 68. 9.2 For critical applications cord shall not be used that is more than 10 years old. NOTE Additional limitations may be applied by the user. 2) Marking B

44、S 3F 71 on or in relation 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

45、 a declaration is not to be confused with third party certification of conformity, which may also be desirable.BS 3F 71:1991 6 BSI 05 March 2002 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

46、 accordance with clause 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 cases of dispute, at a temperat

47、ure of 23 2 C and in a relative 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 du

48、ring the test lie between 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 extensio

49、n required by the test. A.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 the distance between the markers is 225 mm, examine for compliance with 5.2.1 and Table 4; for sizes up to and including 5.5 mm, continue the extensi
