Abstract: An aircraft engine attachment including a beam fixed to a pylon and including a yoke with two walls, and a connecting rod with an articulation housed in the yoke, in which the connecting rod has a front flank and a rear flank which are facing inner faces of the walls. For each wall, a wearing part is disposed against the inner face of the wall and between the wall and the corresponding flank of the connecting rod. A Fixing arrangement ensures the fixing of the wearing part to the wall. Thus, the wearing parts prevent an excessive tilting of the connecting rod and the wearing of the connecting rod or of the yoke.

Abstract: An aircraft propulsive assembly comprising a pylon and a turbomachine attached to the pylon by an engine attachment system. The attachment system comprises two engine attachments each secured to the pylon and to the turbomachine. Each engine attachment comprises at least one fitting attached to the pylon by a first main link, and attached to the turbomachine by a second main link. Each main link has a clearance-free fit. The fitting being, moreover, secured to either the pylon or the turbomachine by an additional link, referred to as a safety link, which backs up one of the main links. The safety link is in the form of an assembly with a clearance. The assembly of the safety link comprises at least one passage which receives, in a sliding manner, a tool for checking a presence of the clearance.
