Aerospace series - Bearings, airframe rolling - Rigid single row ball bearings in steel - Diameter series 0 and 2 - Reduced clearance category - Dimensions and loads

This standard specifies the characteristics of rigid single row ball bearing in steel of diameter series 0 and 2 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, in particular the mounting of more than one bearing on the same shaft axis, which may require reduced clearances and runouts (axial and radial).

Luft- und Raumfahrt - Flugwerklager - Einreihige Rillenkugellager aus Stahl - Durchmesserreihen 0 und 2 - Reduzierte Lagerluft - Maße und Belastungen

Diese Norm legt die Eigenschaften von einreihigen Rillenkugellagern aus Stahl der Durchmesserreihen 0 und 2 fest, die so ausgelegt sind, dass sie unter Belastung nur langsamen Dreh- und Schwenkbewegungen standhalten. Sie sind zur Verwendung zwischen starren und beweglichen Flugwerkteilen und deren Steuerungseinrichtungen vorgesehen, insbesondere bei Montage von mehr als einem Wälzlager auf der gleichen Wellenachse, die reduzierte Spiele (axiale und radiale Lagerluft, Plan- und Rundlauf) erfordern kann.

Série aérospatiale - Roulements pour structures d'aéronefs - Roulements en acier, rigides, à une rangée de billes - Séries de diamètres 0 et 2 - Catégorie à jeux réduits - Dimensions et charges

La présente norme spécifie les caractéristiques des roulements en acier, rigides, à une rangée de billes, séries de diamètres 0 et 2 conçus pour supporter en charge uniquement des rotations lentes et des oscillations faibles.  Ils sont destinés à être utilisés entre les éléments fixes et mobiles de la structure des aéronefs et de leurs mécanismes de commande, et plus particulièrement dans le cas de montage sur une même ligne d'arbre, ce qui impose des jeux et battements reduits (axial et radial).

Overview

EN 3045:1993 is a European standard developed by CEN that defines the specifications for rigid single row ball bearings in steel, specifically for aerospace applications. The standard covers bearings in diameter series 0 and 2, designed with reduced clearance to accommodate precise requirements in aircraft structures. These bearings are intended to support slow rotational and oscillatory movements under load, ensuring reliability in critical airframe and control mechanism components. By standardizing dimensions, load capacities, and clearance categories, EN 3045:1993 promotes consistency, safety, and performance in aerospace rolling bearings.

Key Topics

  • Bearing Type: Rigid single row ball bearings in steel
  • Diameter Series: Series 0 and 2, covering smaller to medium-sized bearings used in aerospace
  • Clearance Category: Reduced clearance to limit axial and radial runouts, essential for multiple bearings mounted on the same shaft axis
  • Intended Motion: Suitable for slow rotations and oscillations, typical in airframe structural components
  • Load Specifications: Defined dimensions and load ratings to ensure compatibility with aerospace design and safety requirements
  • Application Focus: Bearings designed to fit between fixed and moving parts of aircraft, supporting control mechanisms and structural joints

Applications

The EN 3045:1993 standard bearings are critical in aerospace manufacturing and maintenance, offering precise mechanical performance where minimal clearance and reliable slow-motion operation are needed. Typical applications include:

  • Aircraft Structural Assemblies: Bearings that link movable and fixed airframe parts, contributing to structural integrity and smooth mechanical function
  • Flight Control Systems: Components requiring oscillatory bearing movements, such as flap actuators, control rods, and hinges
  • Multiple Bearing Mounts: Situations requiring several bearings aligned on a single shaft axis, demanding minimal clearance to avoid operational interference
  • Maintenance and Replacement: Ensuring consistent spare parts specifications for aerospace rolling bearings, enhancing serviceability and safety
  • General Aerospace Engineering: Fits various aerospace mechanical assemblies adhering to rigorous industry standards

Related Standards

EN 3045:1993 complements a broader family of aerospace and bearing standards, including:

  • ISO 492: Rolling bearings – Radial bearings – Tolerances, which guide precision fits and tolerances
  • EN 2949: Aerospace series - Rolling bearings - Vocabulary, providing standardized terminology
  • Relevant CEN Aerospace Series: Covering other bearing types, materials, and special applications tailored for aviation and space
  • National Implementations: Various national standards bodies (e.g., SIST EN 3045 in Slovenia) adopt and implement EN 3045 for regional aerospace industries
