Overview
EN 3637:2023 specifies the dimensions, materials and surface treatment for aerospace self-locking, silver‑coated bi‑hexagonal (double reduced) nuts manufactured from the heat‑resisting nickel base alloy NI‑P101HT (Waspaloy). The standard covers MJ‑thread sizes and defines configuration, tolerances and marking requirements for nuts intended for high‑temperature aerospace use. Material test temperature is up to 730 °C and classification is 1 210 MPa / 730 °C. EN 3637:2023 supersedes EN 3637:2008.
Key topics and technical requirements
- Configuration and dimensions: Bi‑hexagonal wrenching configuration per Figure 1 and Table 1; dimensions are specified after silver coating. Thread forms and limits reference ISO MJ thread standards.
- Threads: MJ thread form and limits in conformity with ISO 5855‑1 and ISO 5855‑2; tolerances in the self‑locking zone apply before deformation.
- Wrenching: Bi‑hexagonal wrenching configuration per ISO 4095.
- Material: Nickel base alloy NI‑P101HT (Waspaloy) in accordance with EN 2959 or EN 3220 (cold worked/softened bar and wire for fasteners).
- Surface treatment: Electrolytic silver plating per EN 2786 with thickness 5 µm to 15 µm. For MJ6 and larger the pitch‑diameter coating shall be at least 5 µm; MJ5 nuts must have complete thread coverage.
- Finish and details: Removal of sharp edges (0.1 mm to 0.4 mm); certain form details left to manufacturer’s option.
- Designation and marking: Marking per EN 2424, Class A; designation examples and optional design codes included.
- Quality and technical specification: Technical specification follows EN 3005, with supplier approval and qualification requirements aligned to aerospace quality systems (e.g., EN 9100) and product qualification procedures (e.g., EN 9133) where applicable.
Applications and users
EN 3637:2023 is intended for aerospace designers, fastener manufacturers, procurement and quality assurance teams, and maintenance/repair organisations that require standardized, high‑temperature fastening components. Typical uses include aerospace assemblies subjected to elevated temperatures where a combination of self‑locking behavior, high strength, and corrosion/oxidation resistance provided by Waspaloy and silver coating are required.
Who will use it:
- Aerospace fastener manufacturers producing NI‑P101HT nuts
- Aircraft/engine design engineers specifying high‑temperature fasteners
- Quality managers and procurement teams verifying compliance
- Certification and maintenance organisations validating part conformity
