Aerospace series - Bearings, airframe rolling - Rigid single row ball bearings in corrosion resisting steel - Diameter series 8 and 9 - Dimensions and loads

This standard specifies the characteristics of rigid single row bearings in corrosion resisting steel of diameter series 8 and 8 designed to withstand only slow rotations and oscillations under load. They are intended for use between fixed and moving parts of the aircraft structure and their control mechanisms. The airframe rolling bearings defined in this standard are used from -54°C to +150°C.

Luft- und Raumfahrt - Flugwerklager - Einreihige Rillenkugellager aus korrosionsbeständigem Stahl - Durchmesserreihen 8 und 9 - Maße und Belastungen

Diese Norm legt die Eigenschaften von einreihigen Rillenkugellagern aus korrosionsbeständigem Stahl der Durchmesserreihen 8 und 9 fest, die so ausgelegt sind, dass sie unter Belastung nur langsamen Dreh- und Schwenk- bewegungen standhalten. Sie sind zur Verwendung zwischen starren und beweglichen Flugwerkteilen und deren Steuerungseinrichtungen vorgesehen. Die in der vorliegenden Norm festgelegten Flugwerklager sind in dem Temperaturbereich von -54°C bis +150°C.

Overview

EN 3283:1994 (adopted as SIST EN 3283:2001) is a CEN aerospace standard that defines the characteristics, dimensions and load ratings for rigid single row ball bearings made from corrosion-resisting steel, intended for airframe rolling applications. It covers bearings of diameter series 8 and 9 designed to withstand slow rotations and oscillations under load and to operate in aircraft structures and control mechanisms within the temperature range -54 °C to +150 °C.

Key topics and requirements

  • Scope and intended use
    • Bearings for use between fixed and moving parts of the aircraft structure and control systems.
    • Specifically for slow rotations and oscillatory motion rather than high-speed applications.
  • Bearing type and material
    • Rigid single row ball bearings manufactured from corrosion-resisting steel suitable for aerospace environments.
  • Dimensions
    • Standardized inner/outer diameters, widths and related dimensional series information for diameter series 8 and 9 (as referenced in the standard).
  • Loads and ratings
    • Defined static and dynamic load considerations appropriate for airframe rolling bearings (standard provides methods/values for designing/assessing loads for these series).
  • Environmental and temperature limits
    • Operational suitability specified from -54 °C to +150 °C, addressing cryogenic to elevated temperature service in aircraft.
  • Language and adoption
    • Published in multiple languages (English, German, French) and adopted nationally (e.g., SIST EN 3283:2001). Reproduction restrictions apply.

Applications

  • Aerospace component designers specifying rolling elements for airframes and flight control linkages.
  • Bearing manufacturers producing corrosion-resisting steel single row ball bearings to aerospace requirements.
  • Maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) organizations selecting replacement bearings for control mechanisms and structural joints.
  • Procurement, quality assurance and airworthiness authorities requiring standardized bearing dimensions and load data for certification and compatibility.
  • Suppliers and engineers working on low-speed, oscillatory bearing applications in fixed-wing and rotary aircraft.

Related standards

  • EN 3283 complements other aerospace and bearing standards covering high-speed bearings, materials, lubrication and qualification testing. It is indexed under ICS 49.035 (Components for aerospace construction) and is often used alongside national adoptions such as SIST EN 3283:2001.
