Overview

EN 3004:1997 (CEN) is a technical specification for aerospace self-locking nuts with MJ threads manufactured from heat-resisting steel FE-PA2601 (A286). The standard defines the characteristics, qualification and acceptance requirements for these nuts and is applicable whenever referenced. Classification is given as 1 100 MPa (at ambient temperature) / 650 °C, indicating the material and component performance expectations for high-temperature aerospace applications.

Key topics

The standard covers the following technical topics and requirements:

  • Material specification: use of heat-resisting steel FE-PA2601 (A286) and associated mechanical/thermal performance expectations.
  • Thread form: definition and requirements for MJ threads, an aerospace thread type used for critical fastenings.
  • Self‑locking performance: criteria for locking behavior to prevent loosening under vibration and thermal cycling.
  • Mechanical characteristics: strength classification (notably 1 100 MPa at ambient) and high-temperature performance up to 650 °C.
  • Qualification and acceptance: testing and inspection regimes to demonstrate conformity (qualification of design/manufacture and lot acceptance).
  • Dimensional and tolerance requirements: form, fit and interchangeability criteria for reliable assembly.
  • Traceability and marking: provisions to ensure components are identifiable and traceable to manufacturing/inspection records.

Applications

EN 3004 is intended for aerospace fastener supply chains and engineering where high-temperature, high-strength locking nuts are required. Common practical applications include:

  • Engine and exhaust system assemblies exposed to elevated temperatures.
  • Hot-structure joints and high‑stress bolted connections in airframes and propulsion systems.
  • Repair, overhaul and OEM production of aerospace components requiring certified fasteners.

Using EN 3004 helps ensure fastener reliability in demanding thermal and mechanical environments, reducing risk of loosened joints and improving maintenance traceability.

Who should use this standard

  • Aerospace fastener manufacturers and suppliers specifying FE-PA2601 (A286) nuts.
  • Design and mechanical engineers selecting fasteners for high-temperature aerospace systems.
  • Procurement and quality assurance teams enforcing acceptance and traceability.
  • Certification and maintenance organizations verifying component conformity during manufacture and overhaul.

Related standards

EN 3004 sits alongside other CEN/ISO standards for fasteners, threads and aerospace materials. Organizations typically reference EN 3004 in conjunction with broader fastener, material and thread standards to ensure complete specification coverage.
