Overview
EN 3920:2001 (CEN) is an aerospace series standard that specifies the requirements relating to the nickel base alloy NI-B41202 (NiCr14Fe5Si5B3) used as a filler metal for brazing in powder or paste form. The document is targeted at aerospace applications where high-reliability brazed joints are required. It defines the material designation and scope for procurement, quality control and application of this specific Ni-based brazing alloy.
Key Topics and Requirements
While the standard itself sets the formal requirements for NI-B41202, typical technical topics and requirements addressed include:
- Material identification: alloy designation NI-B41202 / NiCr14Fe5Si5B3 and intended brazing filler-metal use.
- Physical form: supplied as powder or paste, with specifications for form-dependent handling and application.
- Chemical composition: confirmation that the filler metal conforms to the NiCr14Fe5Si5B3 composition (nickel-chromium-iron-silicon-boron system).
- Manufacturing and quality control: requirements for consistent production, batch traceability, and conformity to aerospace manufacturing practices.
- Packaging and labeling: correct identification, storage instructions and handling precautions for powder or paste forms.
- Inspection and testing: acceptance criteria and test methods to verify composition, physical condition and suitability for brazing (e.g., cleanliness, contamination limits).
- Safety and handling: recommendations for safe use, storage and transport of powder or paste brazing filler metals (including contamination control).
Note: EN 3920:2001 provides the formal specification; precise test methods, numerical limits or process parameters are in the standard text.
Applications
EN 3920:2001 is used where reliable, high-temperature brazed joints are required in aerospace systems. Typical applications include:
- Brazing of airframe and engine components exposed to elevated temperatures and corrosive environments
- Assembly and repair of turbomachinery, ducts, and heat exchangers
- Manufacturing processes where powder or paste filler metals are preferred for precision joining or vacuum/HIP brazing
Who Uses This Standard
- Aerospace engineers and designers specifying brazing materials
- Metallurgists and materials engineers responsible for joint integrity
- Quality assurance and procurement teams verifying supplier compliance
- Brazing technicians and production managers implementing brazing processes
Related Standards
EN 3920:2001 is part of the aerospace materials series and is typically used alongside other aerospace brazing and materials standards (CEN/EN and industry-specific specifications) to ensure complete process, testing and performance requirements are met.
