Overview

EN 6051:2025 is a European standard developed by CEN for the aerospace industry, specifying the requirements for swage locking, shear type collars made from aluminium alloy 3003 with a chemical conversion coating. These collars are designed for aerospace applications and are part of the inch series of fasteners. The standard outlines the collar's dimensions, surface treatments, marking, and associated quality management requirements. With a maximum operating temperature of 80 °C, EN 6051 is intended for use with compatible aerospace pins specified in EN 6050, EN 6100, or EN 6120.

Key Topics

  • Collar Type and Material

    • Swage locking, shear type
    • Manufactured from aluminium alloy 3003
    • Chemical conversion coating for corrosion resistance
  • Temperature and Compatibility

    • Maximum operating temperature of 80 °C
    • Designed for use with aerospace pins from EN 6050, EN 6100, or EN 6120
  • Dimensions and Tolerances

    • Specified dimensions and tolerances for consistent fit and performance
    • Inch series sizes to align with international aerospace manufacturing
  • Surface Treatment and Lubrication

    • Conversion coating per relevant aerospace chemical film standards
    • Lubrication using cetyl alcohol as per referenced standards
  • Marking and Traceability

    • Markings carried out according to EN 2424 for product identification
    • Designation system for traceability in manufacturing and supply chain
  • Quality Management

    • Production organizations must implement a recognized aerospace quality management system, e.g. EN 9100
    • Qualification procedure documentation in line with EN 9133

Applications

EN 6051:2025 collars play a key role in aerospace structural assemblies requiring swage locking and shear load capacity, particularly:

  • Aircraft Structural Fastening

    • Used in primary and secondary aircraft structure assemblies
    • Ensures reliable fastening even under high vibration and load conditions
  • Maintenance and Repair

    • Enables replacement and retrofit of fastener collars during maintenance
    • Compatibility with a range of pin types enhances field serviceability
  • Aerospace Manufacturing

    • Standardized collar properties ensure interchangeability and quality throughout the supply chain
    • Supports the implementation of lightweight, corrosion-resistant assemblies in new aircraft and space vehicles

Related Standards

Implementing EN 6051:2025 effectively requires understanding its connections to related standards:

  • EN 6050: Aerospace series - Pin, close tolerance, swage locking, 100° countersunk reduced head, shear type, aluminium alloy 7050, conversion coating
  • EN 6100 / EN 6120: Specifications for complementary pins in close tolerance swage locking systems
  • EN 6052: Technical specification for rivet-collar systems (shear type, inch series)
  • EN 2424: Procedures for marking aerospace products
  • EN 6117: Specification for lubrication of fasteners
  • EN 9100: Quality management systems for aviation, space, and defence
  • EN 9133: Qualification procedures for aerospace standard products

Adhering to EN 6051:2025 ensures the use of high-quality, standardized fastener collars that meet stringent aerospace requirements for safety, reliability, and performance. This standard underscores the industry's commitment to interoperability and continuous quality improvement for aerospace hardware.
