Overview

EN 4025:2010 is a European standard developed by CEN that defines the specifications for 45° bulkhead elbows used in pipe couplings with an 8°30' angle, manufactured from titanium alloy. This standard is specifically tailored for aerospace applications, ensuring high reliability and performance under demanding conditions. The elbows are designed for use in fluid systems subject to nominal pressures up to 28,000 kPa and operating temperatures ranging from -55 °C to 135 °C.

The document ensures consistent quality, compatibility, and safety for aerospace fluid systems by outlining dimensional, material, surface treatment, and marking requirements. It is vital for manufacturers, quality assurance engineers, and designers involved in aerospace piping and fluid system components.

Key Topics

  • Material Specifications
    The elbows must be made from titanium alloys conforming to aerospace-grade standards (EN 3311, EN 3312, EN 3314, EN 3315). These alloys provide high strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance crucial for aerospace environments.

  • Dimensional and Mechanical Characteristics
    Precise dimensions and tolerances are specified to ensure proper fitting, sealing, and performance. This includes thread configuration according to ISO 5855-3, internal radius finishing between 0.3 mm and 1.0 mm, and surface roughness requirements for sealing faces and threads.

  • Surface Treatment and Lubrication
    Threads and sealing surfaces are to be lubricated following EN 2491 standards with molybdenum disulphide dry lubricants, applied on abrasive blasted surfaces to achieve optimal sealing and wear resistance.

  • Marking and Identification
    Markings comply with EN 2424:2008 (style A) ensuring traceability and compliance. Each elbow is marked with the standard number, code designation, and manufacturing details.

  • Installation Guidelines
    Installation requires adherence to recommended dimensions for bulkhead thickness and washer types (EN 3267). Proper thread engagement and sealing configurations optimize system integrity.

Applications

EN 4025:2010 elbows are primarily used in:

  • Aerospace fluid systems - vital for fuel, hydraulic, and pneumatic piping, where reliability under high pressure and temperature variations is critical.
  • Bulkhead penetrations - facilitating secure pipe coupling through aircraft fuselage walls and partitions with 45° angled elbows.
  • High-performance aerospace components - benefiting from titanium alloy’s lightweight and corrosion-resistant properties, these elbows contribute to overall weight reduction and durability in aircraft and spacecraft assemblies.

This standard supports aerospace manufacturers in designing fluid systems that meet stringent safety and performance criteria while maintaining interchangeability between suppliers and operators.

Related Standards

For comprehensive system integration and compliance, EN 4025:2010 reference standards include:

  • EN 3275:2002 - Pipe coupling 8°30' with dynamic beam seal specifications.
  • EN 3274:2010 - Pipe coupling 8°30' thread end geometric configurations.
  • EN 2424:2008 - Marking of aerospace products.
  • EN 2491 - Coating methods for molybdenum disulphide dry lubricants.
  • EN 3267 - Washers for bulkhead applications in titanium alloy.
  • ISO 5855-3 - MJ thread limits for fluid system fittings.

These linked standards ensure that the complete fluid piping assembly meets the strict aerospace industry requirements for durability, safety, and performance.
