Overview
EN 2115:2009 is a CEN (ASD‑STAN) aerospace standard that specifies requirements for aluminium alloy 2117‑T42 supplied as wire for solid rivets with a diameter of D ≤ 10 mm. The document defines material designation, manufacturing form and method, delivery and use conditions, heat treatment reference, mechanical characteristics and required inspections tailored to aerospace applications.
Key topics and requirements
- Material and form
- Aluminium alloy: 2117‑T42.
- Form: wire for manufacture of solid rivets.
- Production method: cold drawn.
- Maximum diameter: D ≤ 10 mm.
- Chemical composition
- The standard sets compositional limits for elements including Si, Fe, Cu, Mn, Mg, Cr, Zn and Al (composition limits are specified in the standard).
- Heat treatment and conditions
- Delivery condition: H14 (alternatively H13 or H15 are acceptable).
- Use condition: T42 (reference heat treatment provided).
- Reference heat treatment: (specified as) solution treatment followed by water quench and natural aging to T42 - the standard gives temperature, time and quench parameters (see EN 2115:2009 for exact values).
- Mechanical properties and tests
- Tensile strength (Rm) and shear strength requirements are defined (Rm range and shear minimums are provided in the standard).
- Test pieces and sample preparation follow the provisions of EN 2070‑6 (rivet wire technical specification).
- Direction of test piece, ambient test temperature, and inspection procedures are specified.
- Inspection and inspection criteria
- External defects, marking and dimensional inspections reference EN 2070‑6.
- Dimensions and tolerances should comply with order requirements or dimensional standards referenced in TR 2410.
- Qualification
- Product qualification program to be agreed between manufacturer and purchaser.
Applications and who uses this standard
- Primary users: aerospace manufacturers, rivet producers, fastener suppliers, material and quality engineers, procurement teams and design engineers specifying rivets for airframes and structural assemblies.
- Practical uses: specifying rivet wire material and condition in purchase orders, verifying supplier compliance during incoming inspection, defining heat‑treatment schedules to achieve T42 condition, and ensuring mechanical performance for aircraft riveting operations.
