General Information
Overview
SIST EN 3856:2004 is a European standard specifying the characteristics of swivel nuts used for thrust wire in aerospace pipe couplings. These pipe couplings have a 60° spherical design and are manufactured from the titanium alloy TI-P64001. This standard ensures that swivel nuts meet precise dimensional, material, and quality requirements to provide reliable performance in aerospace fluid systems.
Developed by the European Association of Aerospace Manufacturers (AECMA) and endorsed by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN), SIST EN 3856:2004 is applied across member countries to unify production and quality assurance of these critical aerospace components. The document also references assembly guidelines according to TR 4052.
Key Topics
Scope and Application: Defines the use of swivel nuts for thrust wire in 60° spherical pipe couplings, specifically for aerospace applications where titanium alloy TI-P64001 is employed.
Dimensions and Tolerances: Specifies detailed configuration and size limits for swivel nuts, ensuring precise fit and function within pipe coupling assemblies. Dimensions adhere to ISO standards and apply before lubrication.
Material Requirements: Mandates the use of titanium alloy TI-P64001, known for its strength, light weight, and corrosion resistance-vital for aerospace fluid systems.
Surface Coating: Establishes surface treatment requirements aligned with EN 2491, focusing on protective coatings such as molybdenum disulphide dry lubricants to enhance performance and durability.
Marking & Designation: Details marking protocols (EN 2424, style A) for traceability and part identification, critical for aerospace safety and maintenance.
Quality Assurance: Incorporates ISO and EN aerospace quality standards to ensure manufacturing consistency and reliability, including approval of manufacturers' quality systems per EN 2000.
Applications
SIST EN 3856:2004 swivel nuts are integral components within aerospace fluid and hydraulic systems. Their primary applications include:
Pipe Coupling Assemblies: Utilized in 60° spherical pipe couplings for secure and flexible joints that withstand high-pressure and vibration environments commonly encountered in aircraft.
Thrust Wire Connections: These swivel nuts enable the connection of thrust wires, which stabilize and support pipe assemblies against dynamic mechanical loads.
Aerospace Fluid Systems: Ideal for fuel, hydraulic, and pneumatic systems where corrosion resistance, lightweight construction, and high mechanical performance requirements are critical.
By following this standard, manufacturers and aerospace engineers can achieve reliable, high-performance coupling assemblies that ensure system safety and longevity.
