Overview

EN 2821:2024 is a European standard developed by CEN that specifies stringent requirements for the aerospace-grade steel grade X5CrNiCu15-5 (1.4545). This steel is produced by a consumable electrode remelting process, then subjected to solution treatment and precipitation treatment to meet the mechanical properties necessary for aerospace applications. The standard covers machining bars with a diameter or cross-section of up to 200 mm and a minimum tensile strength (Rm) of 1,310 MPa.

The standard is part of the EN aerospace metal material series and aligns with general aerospace material guidelines to ensure high-quality, high-performance steel products for safety-critical aerospace components.

Key Topics

• Material Specification: Steel grade X5CrNiCu15-5 (1.4545), known for corrosion resistance, high strength, and toughness.
• Manufacturing Process: Consumable electrode remelting to enhance purity and minimize defects.
• Heat Treatments:
  • Solution Treatment: Performed at 1,025 – 1,055 °C for at least 30 minutes, followed by rapid cooling.
  • Precipitation Treatment: Conducted between 465 – 495 °C for at least 1 hour, enhancing strength and durability.
• Form and Dimensions: Bars designed for machining with diameter or cross-section (a or D) ≤ 200 mm.
• Mechanical Properties:
  • Minimum tensile strength (Rm) ≥ 1,310 MPa.
  • Proof stress (Rp0.2) ≥ 1,170 MPa.
  • Elongation and reduction in area meet aerospace safety factors.
  • Hardness values controlled between HB 388–444 or 40–47 HRC.
• Inspection and Testing:
  • Microstructural analysis ensuring δ ferrite content ≤ 2%.
  • Ultrasonic and visual testing to detect internal and surface defects.
  • Compliance with EN 4700-002 technical specifications.
• Quality Assurance: Product qualification as per EN 2043, including traceability, marking, and dimensional inspections.

Applications

EN 2821:2024 steel bars are critical for aerospace structural components requiring:

• High strength-to-weight ratio materials.
• Superior corrosion resistance for long lifecycle in harsh environments.
• Reliability under cyclic loading and extreme temperature variations.
• Precision machining to tight tolerances for complex aerospace parts.
• Use in components such as turbine shafts, fasteners, and critical load-bearing parts in aircraft and aerospace vehicles.

This standard enables manufacturers and aerospace engineers to select and procure consistent, certified steel bars that meet the demanding conditions of aerospace engineering, improving safety and performance of aerospace hardware.

Related Standards

EN 2821:2024 integrates closely with other aerospace and metallic material standards:

• EN 4700-002 - Technical specifications for steel and heat-resisting alloy bars and sections.
• EN 2043 - General requirements for semi-finished aerospace metallic products qualification.
• EN 2951 - Micrographic determination of non-metallic inclusion content in aerospace steels.
• EN 4050-4 - Ultrasonic inspection criteria for aerospace bars and forgings.
• EN 4436 - Testing for δ ferrite content in steel.
• EN 4258 - Overall organization and classification of aerospace metallic material standards.
• EN 4500-005 - Rules for drafting and presentation of aerospace steel material standards.

By adhering to EN 2821:2024 and these associated standards, organizations ensure compliance with aerospace industry best practices, enabling international acceptance and interoperability.
