Overview

EN 4686:2014 defines the required characteristics for equipped blind ferrules used with pipe coupling 8°30' in titanium alloy for aerospace fluid systems. The European Standard specifies configuration, dimensions, surface finish, materials and surface treatments for blind ferrules intended for aerospace applications, and sets rules for designation and marking to ensure interchangeability and traceability.

Key Topics

  • Scope and purpose
    • Specifies characteristics of equipped blind ferrules for pipe coupling 8°30' in titanium alloy for aerospace use.
  • Configuration, dimensions and mass
    • Dimensioning and mass are given by the standard’s figures and tables (see Figure 1 / Table 1 in EN 4686). Thread details reference ISO 5855-3 (MJ threads).
  • Surface roughness and finishing
    • Surface roughness limits are defined (per the figures in the standard) and coatings/lubrication requirements are given for mating areas.
  • Materials
    • Titanium alloy ferrules and nuts conform to EN 3311 or EN 3314 (TI-P64001 / Ti‑6Al‑4V variants referenced). External retaining rings are stainless steel per DIN 471.
  • Surface treatment
    • PTFE lubrication/coating is required on the 110° nut contact area (see EN 4031). An optional red external coating per FED‑STD‑595 (color FS 11136) in accordance with MIL‑PRF‑24635 is specified for non-flightworthy components.
  • Designation and marking
    • Example designation format: EN4686-05R (standard number + code + optional red-coating code). Marking follows EN 3269 and EN 4031; note that red paint may obscure EN 4031 marks.
  • Technical specification
    • Technical performance and test requirements reference EN 3275.

Applications

  • Who uses EN 4686:2014
    • Aerospace component designers and engineers, manufacturers of hydraulic and pneumatic tubing systems, quality and certification teams, procurement specialists, and MRO organizations.
  • Practical value
    • Ensures dimensional interchangeability and material compatibility for titanium alloy blind ferrules in aircraft fluid systems.
    • Provides clear guidance on coatings (PTFE) and optional identification coatings to support assembly, inspection and maintenance procedures.
    • Supports compliance with broader aerospace supply-chain requirements and simplifies supplier specifications.

Related Standards

  • EN 3269 (ferrules, blind, with dynamic beam seal end)
  • EN 3275 (dynamic beam seal technical specification)
  • EN 4031 (nuts for welded ferrule)
  • EN 3311 / EN 3314 (titanium alloy material specifications)
  • ISO 5855-3 (MJ thread limits)
  • DIN 471 (retaining rings)
  • MIL‑PRF‑24635 and FED‑STD‑595 (coating and color references)
