Overview

SIST EN 3055:2001 is a European aerospace standard published by the Comité Européen de Normalisation (CEN) that specifies the characteristics of single row self-aligning roller bearings made from corrosion-resisting steel. These bearings are designed primarily for airframe rolling applications where slow rotations, oscillations, and swiveling under load occur. The standard defines the dimensions, load capacities, and performance requirements, ensuring reliability and durability within the demanding environments of aerospace structures.

This standard is critical for manufacturers and engineers involved in aerospace components, particularly those working with bell crank lever ends or rigid flight control rod transmissions. It supports operational performance in wide temperature ranges from -54°C to +150°C, reflecting conditions experienced in flight.

Key Topics

• Bearing Type: Single row self-aligning roller bearings, specifically tailored for aerospace airframe applications.
• Material Specification: Corrosion-resisting steel to ensure longevity and resistance against environmental degradation.
• Design Purpose: Bearings intended for slow rotational movements, oscillations, and swiveling under load - suitable for pivotal aerospace control mechanisms.
• Dimensional Standards: Precise bearing dimensions to maintain compatibility and interchangeability in aerospace assemblies.
• Load Ratings: Defined load capacities for operational safety and performance assurance under applied stresses.
• Temperature Range: Operational effectiveness validated from -54°C to +150°C, accommodating extreme aerospace flight environments.
• Application Context: Use in bell crank lever ends and rigid flight control rod transmissions, before or after servo actuation, critical for flight control integrity.

Applications

SIST EN 3055:2001 bearings are predominantly applied within aerospace engineering for critical control systems and structural mechanisms where reliable rolling element bearings are essential. Typical uses include:

• Flight Control Systems: Bearings in bell crank lever ends and flight control rods ensure smooth, precise movements under varying loads.
• Airframe Rolling Mechanisms: Bearings that accommodate slow rotation and oscillation in aircraft structural components.
• Servo System Interfaces: Positioned before or after servos to maintain alignment and load handling during control surface actuation.
• Harsh Environmental Use: Bearings perform reliably within extreme cold and high-temperature conditions encountered in aerospace environments.
• Corrosion Resistance Needs: Suitable for exposure to moisture, humidity, and other corrosive factors inherent in aviation operations.

These applications benefit from the standardized dimensions and load requirements established by SIST EN 3055:2001, enabling aerospace manufacturers to source consistent, high-quality components for flight-critical assemblies.
