Overview
EN 4297:2017 is a European aerospace standard specifying the characteristics of hexagon nuts that are self‑locking by a plastic ring, with normal height and normal across‑flats, made from corrosion‑resisting steel (passivated). The nuts are classified for a minimum tensile stress of 900 MPa at ambient temperature and a maximum service temperature of 120 °C (the latter being limited by the plastic ring material). This standard is published by CEN/ASD‑STAN for use in aviation, space and defence applications.
Key topics
- Scope and classification
- Defines nut configuration, classification 900 MPa / 120 °C, and applicability to aerospace fastenings.
- Dimensions and tolerances
- Dimensions and tolerances expressed in millimetres and apply after surface treatment; detailed sizes and masses provided in the standard (Table 1).
- Thread form references: ISO 5855‑2 (MJ threads) and tolerances of form and position per ISO 8788.
- Materials
- Threaded element: material designation FE‑PA1801.
- Locking element: polyamide 6.6 plastic ring.
- Surface treatment and passivation
- Surface finish and passivation requirements referenced to EN 2516 (process class appropriate to material).
- Marking and designation
- Marking follows EN 2424 (style N). Example designation format: NUT EN4297‑050.
- Quality and procurement
- Manufacturer approval and quality system references: EN 9100 and product qualification EN 9133.
- Technical specification
- Procurement and testing reference ISO 5858, with noted exceptions for manufacturer approval and qualification.
Applications
- Designed for aerospace and defence bolted joints where a reusable, vibration‑resistant locking feature is required.
- Typical uses include airframe assemblies, avionics enclosures, engine accessory attachments and other critical joints where corrosion resistance and controlled mechanical properties (900 MPa class) are needed.
- Relevant to design engineers, procurement specialists, fastener manufacturers, quality managers and maintenance organizations specifying or producing standardized aerospace nuts.
Who should use this standard
- Aerospace fastener manufacturers and suppliers
- Design and stress engineers specifying fastening hardware
- Procurement teams creating procurement specifications for aerospace parts
- Quality assurance and certification bodies auditing compliance with aerospace standards
