Overview
EN 2644:1998 - Aerospace series - Rod assemblies for flight controls - Technical specification - is a CEN standard that defines the required characteristics and delivery conditions for rod assemblies used in aircraft flight control systems. The standard applies to rod assemblies consisting of an aluminium alloy rod body with fixed or adjustable rod end fittings, and covers the expectations for inspections, testing, quality assurance, qualification, acceptance and delivery whenever the standard is referenced in procurement or design.
Key topics
The standard addresses the following core areas relevant to rod assemblies for flight controls:
- Design and materials - specifies that assemblies consist of an aluminium alloy rod body combined with fixed or adjustable rod end fittings.
- Required characteristics - sets out performance and construction expectations for flight-control rod assemblies.
- Inspections and tests - defines that manufactured assemblies must undergo inspection and testing before acceptance and delivery.
- Quality assurance - requires manufacturers to implement quality control and quality assurance procedures to ensure consistent production conforming to the specification.
- Qualification and acceptance - describes manufacturer and batch qualification, acceptance criteria and documentation required at delivery.
- Delivery conditions - covers packaging, marking and documentation to accompany delivered rod assemblies.
(EN 2644:1998 was adopted by some national bodies - for example as SIST EN 2644:2001 - preserving the technical specification across member states.)
Applications
EN 2644 is practical and relevant for anyone involved in the manufacture, procurement, certification or maintenance of flight control linkages in aerospace systems:
- Aerospace manufacturers producing rod assemblies and rod end fittings for flight controls.
- Design engineers specifying control rod components in aircraft and rotorcraft control systems.
- Quality managers and inspectors responsible for establishing inspection and acceptance processes.
- Procurement and supply chain teams requiring a referenced technical specification in contracts and purchase orders.
- Certification and regulatory bodies assessing conformity of components used in flight-critical control linkages.
Using EN 2644 in specifications helps ensure consistent material selection (aluminium alloy rod body), reliable assembly practices, and standardized acceptance testing for flight-control rod assemblies.
Related standards
EN 2644 fits into the broader family of aerospace component and materials standards. When implementing EN 2644, organizations commonly coordinate it with applicable material specifications, fastener standards and quality management standards relevant to aerospace manufacturing and procurement.
