European foreword
This document (prEN 4474:2023) has been prepared by the Aerospace and Defence Industries
Association of Europe — Standardization (ASD-STAN).
After enquiries and votes carried out in accordance with the rules of this Association, this document has
received the approval of the National Associations and the Official Services of the member countries of
ASD-STAN, prior to its presentation to CEN.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document will supersede EN 4474:2016.
The main changes compared to the previous edition are as follows:
— Subclause 8.1: removed anodization per ISO 8080;
— Subclause 9.1 a): “within 24 h after surface preparation” replaced by “if possible within 24 h after
surface preparation”;
— Subclause 9.1 b): removed requirements for humidity and temperature;
— Subclause 12.3: added 5 µm to 20 µm on internally threaded fasteners.
Any feedback and questions on this document should be directed to the users’ national standards body.
A complete listing of these bodies can be found on the CEN website.
