Overview
EN 4634:2009 specifies the characteristics of aerospace screws with a 100° countersunk head, six-lobe recess, and short thread, manufactured in heat-resisting steel FE-PA2601 (A286) and passivated. The standard defines the mechanical classification 900 MPa (at ambient temperature) with applicability for elevated temperatures up to 650 °C. It is published by CEN for use across European national bodies and intended for aerospace fastener selection and procurement.
Key Topics
- Configuration, dimensions and tolerances: Head geometry, countersink angle and dimensional limits are specified; dimensions apply after surface treatment.
- Thread forms: MJ-type metric threads are referenced (see Table 1 in the standard for MJ3 to MJ12 size codes and associated length codes).
- Materials: Base material is heat-resisting steel FE-PA2601 (A286); associated material references include EN 2399 and EN 3639.
- Surface treatment: Passivation requirements are covered and reference EN 2516 for passivation and decontamination of corrosion-resistant steels.
- Tolerances of form and position: Geometrical tolerances reference ISO 7913.
- Designation and marking: A clear designation system and marking rules (per EN 2424) ensure traceability-example identity block format: EN4634-040003.
- Normative references: The document relies on standards such as ISO 3353-1, ISO 5855-2, ISO 7913, EN 2399, EN 2516, EN 2576 and EN 3911 among others.
Applications
EN 4634 screws are intended for aerospace assemblies where a combination of flush countersunk fastening, high strength, and high-temperature performance is required. Practical applications and benefits include:
- Use in structural and airframe components where a smooth external surface is required.
- High-strength performance at ambient conditions (900 MPa) and maintained integrity for elevated temperature exposure up to 650 °C.
- Passivation improves corrosion resistance and supports long-term durability in harsh aerospace environments.
- The six-lobe recess (EN 3911) supports reliable torque engagement and repeatable installation in production and maintenance operations.
