General Information
Overview
EN 3717:2008 - Aerospace series: Tubes - Selection for engines fluid systems is a CEN (European) standard that defines a selection of external diameters and wall thicknesses for tubing used in aircraft engine fluid systems. The standard bases its dimensional choices on ISO 2964 and is intended for tubing that conveys fluids such as kerosene, oil and air in engine applications. Dimensions are given in millimetres and Table 1 of EN 3717:2008 lists permitted diameter‑thickness combinations and informative mass-per-metre values for common materials.
Key topics
- Scope and purpose: standardizes outside diameters and thicknesses for aircraft engine tubing to ensure consistent selection and interchangeability.
- Normative reference: ISO 2964 (Aerospace - Tubing - Outside diameters and thicknesses - Metric dimensions).
- Dimensioning: diameter‑thickness combinations are provided in a tabulated form (millimetre units).
- Materials and mass data: the standard gives informative masses calculated for stainless steel (density 7.85 kg/dm3) and titanium alloys (density 4.5 kg/dm3), supporting lightweight design trade-offs.
- Application focus: tubes intended specifically for engine fluid systems (fuel, oil, pneumatic lines).
Applications
EN 3717:2008 is practical for:
- Specifying tubing for engine fuel and lubrication systems where standardized diameters and wall thicknesses are required.
- Selecting tubing material and wall thickness to meet strength, weight and routing constraints in engine installations.
- Procurement and part standardization for aircraft manufacturers, suppliers and maintenance organizations to ensure compatibility across systems and suppliers.
- Weight estimation and preliminary mass budgeting using the informative mass-per-metre data for stainless steel and titanium alloy tubes.
Who uses this standard
- Aerospace OEMs and engine manufacturers specifying fluid system tubing.
- Design and stress engineers selecting tube sizes for hydraulic, pneumatic and fuel lines.
- Tube and fittings suppliers producing compliant tubing to ISO 2964/EN 3717 dimensions.
- MRO providers and certification bodies referencing standard dimensional suites during maintenance and conformity checks.
Related standards
- ISO 2964 (normative reference): metric outside diameters and thicknesses for aerospace tubing.
- Additional aerospace tubing and fluid-system standards may be used in conjunction with EN 3717:2008 for material, joining and testing requirements.
