Overview

EN 4550-2:2003 is a European aerospace standard that specifies the dimensions and tolerances for the port end of inch-series, 37° pipe couplings used in aerospace fluid systems. The standard covers the geometric and dimensional requirements needed to ensure interchangeability and reliable mechanical sealing for mating components in aircraft hydraulic and fluid distribution systems. Dimensions and tolerances are given in millimetres and are illustrated in a figure and tabulated (Table 1).

Key topics and requirements

  • Scope: Specifies port-end geometry for 37° design-configuration pipe couplings in the inch series for aerospace applications.
  • Dimensions and tolerances: Detailed dimensional data and tolerance limits are provided (see Figure 1 and Table 1). Values are expressed in millimetres.
  • Threading: Thread forms referenced follow UNJ / UNJF series as covered by ISO 3161 (UNJ threads – general requirements and limit dimensions).
  • Concentricity requirement: All outer surfaces shall be concentric to the specified inner diameter A, with a tolerance of 0.1 mm.
  • Designation: Dimensional codes correspond to nominal diameters expressed in sixteenths of an inch; examples and an identity-block format (e.g., EN4550-2 -08) are provided to identify parts.
  • Interchangeability: Matched fluid system components must have port connections in accordance with EN 4550-3 to ensure compatibility between coupling port ends and mating parts.

Practical applications

EN 4550-2 is applied wherever precise, repeatable port-end dimensions are required for aerospace hydraulic and pneumatic systems:

  • Design and engineering of aircraft hydraulic fittings and pipe assemblies
  • Manufacturing and QC of tube couplings, adapters and port components
  • Maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) to verify replacement parts meet original dimensional criteria
  • Procurement and specification writing to ensure suppliers deliver compatible couplings
  • Certification and conformity checks during component acceptance and system integration

Who will use this standard

  • Aerospace fluid-system designers and mechanical engineers
  • Fitting and coupling manufacturers and tooling designers
  • Quality assurance and inspection personnel in aerospace supply chains
  • MRO organizations and service providers working on aircraft hydraulic systems
  • Procurement specialists specifying interchangeability and compliance
