Overview
EN 3292:1994 (published by CEN) is an aerospace standard that defines the characteristics, dimensions and load ratings for single row self‑aligning roller bearings made of corrosion resisting steel, specifically for diameter series 3 and 4. These airframe rolling bearings are intended for service where only slow rotations, oscillations and/or swivelling under load occur and are used between fixed and moving parts of the aircraft structure and control mechanisms. The standard covers bearings qualified for an operational temperature range of -54°C to +150°C.
Key identifiers:
- Title: Aerospace series - Bearings, airframe rolling - Single row self‑aligning roller bearings in corrosion resisting steel - Diameter series 3 and 4 - Dimensions and loads
- Organization: CEN (also published as SIST EN 3292:2001)
- ICS: 49.035 (Components for aerospace construction)
Key Topics
- Bearing type and material: Single row self‑aligning roller bearings in corrosion resisting steel suitable for aerospace use.
- Diameter series: Definitions and classification for series 3 and 4, ensuring consistent sizing and interchangeability.
- Dimensions: Standardized external and internal geometry to facilitate design, procurement and replacement.
- Load ratings: Specified static and operational load parameters appropriate for slow rotations, oscillation and swivelling under load (as applicable to airframe rolling applications).
- Operational limits: Temperature range and intended motion types (slow rotation, oscillation, swivelling) to guide suitability for different aircraft environments.
- Intended use: Bearings located between fixed and moving parts of aircraft structures and control mechanisms-designed for reliability under aerospace service conditions.
Applications
EN 3292:1994 is practical for:
- Aerospace design engineers specifying bearings for airframe joints, hinges, pivots and control linkages where slow motion occurs.
- Procurement specialists ensuring purchased bearings meet standardized dimensions and load capabilities for interchangeability.
- Maintenance and overhaul teams selecting approved replacement bearings compatible with aircraft service conditions.
- Suppliers and manufacturers producing corrosion‑resistant roller bearings for aerospace markets and seeking compliance with European aerospace series requirements.
- Certification and quality assurance professionals verifying component suitability for specified temperature and motion conditions.
Related Standards
- This document sits within the broader set of aerospace bearing standards and national adoptions (e.g., SIST EN 3292:2001).
- For complete system design, users commonly consult complementary standards on bearing lubrication, surface treatments, and general bearing dimensions (refer to applicable EN/ISO bearing standards as needed).
Using EN 3292:1994 helps ensure compatibility, safety and predictable performance of self‑aligning roller bearings in critical airframe and control mechanism applications.
