CERTIFIED 3D CATALOG
SAE-AS Aerospace Standards
SAE AS is an aerospace standard developed by SAE International, comprising more than 8,500 active standards. It is intended for aerospace and other mobility applications in high-stress environments.
Certified native CAD models of the SAE AS standard are available in partnership with CADENAS USA.
CERTIFIED 3D CATALOG
AIA-NAS Aerospace Standard
The NAS Parts Library is an aerospace standard developed and managed by AIA, with more than 1,400 active standards. It is intended primarily for aerospace applications, but is also used in other high-stress environments.
CADENAS USA has partnered with AIA to offer the full NAS Parts Library as certified native CAD models for engineers.
CERTIFIED 3D CATALOG
ASME B18.24 Standard
ASME and CADENAS USA partnered to create ASME B18.24 PIN code lookup software. With the ASME B18.24 PIN code, users can identify any ASME B18 fastener configuration and download a PDF spec sheet or certified CAD model.
The ASME B18.24 standard assigns a unique PIN code to every possible configuration within the ASME B18 fastener standard, helping engineers and manufacturers ensure the correct part is specified and produced.

Certified 3D CAD Standards FAQs
Digital industry standards are official engineering standards delivered in a usable digital format, including certified 3D CAD models, part data, specifications, and searchable attributes. They help engineers find and use standard parts faster without manually recreating them.
Certified 3D standard parts are CAD models that are officially authorized and aligned with published standards from standards development organizations such as SAE, AIA, and ASME. They are built to reflect the correct geometry, metadata, and part configurations defined by the standard.
Digital standards catalogs save engineering time, reduce modeling errors, and improve design consistency. Instead of redrawing commonly used fasteners and hardware, engineers can instantly download ready-to-use certified models and focus on product development.
Digital standards catalogs can include major industry standards such as SAE AS, AIA NAS, and ASME B18.24. Available catalogs may vary, but they are typically focused on widely used aerospace, mechanical, and industrial standard parts.
Digital industry standards help teams stay aligned with the latest approved part definitions and revisions from the governing standards organization. This reduces the risk of using outdated or incorrect configurations in engineering and manufacturing workflows.
Yes. Digital industry standards catalogs typically support multiple native and neutral CAD formats, making it easier for engineers to work in systems such as SOLIDWORKS, Creo, NX, Inventor, and others.
Yes. In addition to helping design engineers, digital standards catalogs support procurement and manufacturing by providing accurate part numbers, specifications, and metadata. This helps improve communication across engineering, sourcing, and production teams.
Digital standards catalogs are updated to reflect the latest revisions from the relevant standards development organizations. This helps ensure engineers are working with current part definitions and compliant data.
