Overview
EN 3286:1994 (Aerospace series) is a CEN standard that defines the characteristics, dimensions and load data for rigid single row ball bearings made of corrosion resisting steel for airframe rolling applications. It covers diameter series 0 and 2, normal clearance category, and bearings intended for slow rotations and oscillations in aircraft structures and control mechanisms. Operating temperature range is specified from -54°C to 150°C.
Key topics and requirements
- Bearing type and material: Rigid single row ball bearings in corrosion resisting steel suitable for airframe use.
- Diameter series: Applies to series 0 and 2 - dimensional families used for consistent interchangeability.
- Clearance category: Normal clearance - tolerance class to ensure predictable fit and movement in assemblies.
- Intended kinematics: Designed for slow rotations and oscillations, not for high-speed applications.
- Dimensions and loads: Specifies the geometric dimensions and load-related characteristics (static and service loads) relevant to airframe rolling bearings.
- Environmental range: Qualified for service temperatures from -54°C to 150°C, reflecting typical aerospace environmental extremes.
- Applications scope: Bearings are intended for installation between fixed and moving airframe parts and control mechanisms.
Practical applications
- Use EN 3286 bearings for landing gear components, control surface linkages, hinges, and other structural pivot points that require corrosion-resistant rolling elements and operate at low speed or oscillatory motion.
- Useful in new aircraft design, refurbishment, and component standardization to ensure interchangeability and predictable performance.
- Supports maintenance and procurement decisions by providing standardized dimension and load information for selecting compliant airframe rolling bearings.
Who should use this standard
- Aerospace engineers and designers specifying bearing choices for airframes.
- Procurement and supply chain professionals sourcing airframe bearings and components.
- Bearing manufacturers and quality managers producing corrosion-resisting steel bearings to aerospace requirements.
- Maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) organizations verifying part conformity and replacement compatibility.
- Certification and regulatory bodies assessing compliance with aerospace component standards.
Related standards
- Complementary aerospace bearing standards and general bearing dimension/load standards (refer to other Aerospace series and applicable ISO bearing standards) for high-speed or alternate material bearings, tolerances, and testing methods.
