Ray-Ban's 'Craft' line pairs a round metal front with 145mm temple arms finished to match — the spec this compatible pair is built to for the RB3475Q. Despite the different name from the standard 3447/2447 round-metal models, the arm length and hinge position on the Craft edition are the same 145mm figure, just with its own finish detailing.

Because Craft-line arms carry a distinct finish rather than plain polished metal, wear shows up first as that finish dulling or thinning at the hinge and behind the ear, while the underlying metal and hinge mechanism are often still sound. That's a cosmetic issue you can live with if the fit is otherwise fine. Where the hinge itself has actually loosened or the arm is bent, replacing it is the more lasting fix than repeated adjustment.

Frequently asked questions

How do I know these arms will fit my Ray-Ban frame?

These arms are made specifically for the 3475, matching its 145mm length and Round hinge design, so they attach to your existing screws and hinge without any filing or adjustment needed.

Are these official Ray-Ban replacement parts?

These are compatible aftermarket arms, independently produced to match the 3475's hinge and 145mm length. They aren't manufactured or supplied by Ray-Ban, just built to the same measurements so they attach correctly.

Can I replace just one arm, or do I have to buy both?

You can order a single side if only one arm on your 3475 is broken or scratched, or buy the pair if both need replacing — either way they match the 145mm length exactly.

What material are the arms made from, and will the color match my frame?

The arms are molded in an acetate or metal finish that matches the Round style of the 3475 closely, though very slight shade variation is possible since they're independently produced as separate aftermarket parts rather than cut from the same batch as the frame.
