Overview
The kSIST FprEN 3687:2025:2024 standard, issued by CEN, defines the specifications for aerospace-grade bolts featuring a normal hexagon head, relieved shank, and long thread. These bolts are manufactured from the heat-resisting steel FE-PA2601 (A286), which is silver plated to enhance surface properties and corrosion resistance. Classified under tensile strength class 1,100 MPa at room temperature and tested up to a maximum temperature of 650 °C, these bolts are engineered for demanding aerospace applications requiring both mechanical reliability and heat resistance.
This updated standard supersedes the previous EN 3687:2010 and incorporates adjustments such as refined surface roughness requirements and corrected dimensional values to ensure precision engineering and compliance with contemporary aerospace manufacturing needs.
Key Topics
Material Quality
The bolts are made from heat resisting alloy FE-PA2601 (A286) according to EN 3761, ensuring high tensile strength (1100 MPa) and superior performance in temperatures up to 650 °C.Bolt Design
The configuration features a normal hexagon head, a relieved shank to reduce stress concentrations, and a long thread for improved engagement. Detailed dimensions, tolerances, and surface roughness standards are specified precisely for manufacturing consistency.Surface Treatment
A silver plating coat applied per EN 2786 Category A with a thickness of 3–6 µm on thread flanks ensures corrosion resistance and surface conductivity. Surface roughness requirements prescribe a maximum Ra of 0.8 µm on bearing surfaces and 3.2 µm on other surfaces before plating.Marking and Designation
Marking complies with EN 2424, guaranteeing traceability essential for aerospace quality control. The bolt designation format simplifies identification by diameter and length codes, streamlining procurement and assembly processes.Standards Alignment
The specification incorporates references to related aerospace standards and ISO norms for thread forms and dimensions, ensuring interoperability and standardized production quality.
Applications
The kSIST FprEN 3687:2025:2024 bolts are ideal for high-performance aerospace applications where strength, temperature endurance, and corrosion resistance are critical. Typical uses include:
Aircraft Structural Assemblies
Bolts securing engine mounts, airframe structures, and other components exposed to thermal stress and vibration.Aeronautical Engine Components
Fastening parts in heat-affected zones requiring sustained mechanical properties at elevated temperatures.Space Industry Hardware
Assemblies in spacecraft where temperature fluctuation and material reliability are paramount.High-Temperature Industrial Equipment
Beyond aerospace, these bolts can be used in power generation equipment and other industrial machinery requiring heat resistant fasteners.
