Overview
SIST EN 4673-002:2010 is a European standard under the Aerospace series developed by CEN, specifying the design requirements for inserts featuring UNJ threads that are self-locking and equipped with self-broaching keys. These inserts are intended primarily for aerospace applications, providing detailed guidance on installation hole dimensions, applications, and provisions for component salvage in aerospace components.
The standard ensures compatibility with UNJ threaded bolts per ISO 3161 and defines performance and installation criteria to maintain mechanical integrity and durability critical in aerospace environments.
Key Topics
Design Specifications
Defines installation hole dimensions, flange thickness requirements, and tool clearance considerations specific to self-locking, self-broaching key UNJ threaded inserts. Includes codified hole dimensions for normal and repair sizes, enabling standardized component design and repair processes.Self-Locking Mechanism
Inserts include self-broaching keys that cut into the parent thread during installation to secure the insert, preventing movement during bolt mounting/unmounting. The self-locking feature operates independently from the key side, ensuring reliable fixation.Performance Requirements
Ensures minimum reusability of the inserts: at least 25 re-installations at ambient temperature and 5 cycles post high-temperature baking, with specified self-locking torque parameters aligned with insert size.Installation and Use Restrictions
Specifies tolerances for flush or near-flush insert installation within components (0.25 mm to 0.75 mm below surface), including maximum allowable clearance diameters for items passed through the inserts. It also defines limitations to avoid interference during assembly.Component Salvage Provisions
Provides guidance for repair scenarios, encouraging salvage practices for expensive aerospace parts through recommended hole preparation and selection of repair-size inserts. Addresses economic considerations of salvage versus replacement.Designation and Drawing Standards
Outlines naming conventions for inserts based on diameter and repair size, and presents recommended methods for indicating installation holes on technical drawings, including codification and full dimensioning methods.
Applications
The SIST EN 4673-002:2010 standard is essential for aerospace engineers, designers, and manufacturers working with threaded inserts in:
Aircraft structural components
Where high-strength, reusable threaded connections are required under demanding load and temperature conditions.Engine assemblies and mounting points
Supporting reliable bolt retention and ease of component repair through standardized insert dimensions and installation protocols.Aerospace repair and maintenance
Facilitating component salvage via defined repair insert sizes and installation practices, reducing costs associated with component replacement.Lightweight alloys and high-performance materials
Including aluminum, titanium, and heat-resistant steels, where thread reinforcements via inserts prolong service life and improve reliability.
