Product Description

Product Description & Key Specifications

DIN 127 / ISO 7980 stainless spring washers are supplied in SS304 / SS316 for corrosion-resistant general fastening assemblies where a split spring washer is specified by drawing or bill of material. Common supply range is M3-M24 with passivated finish and project packaging on request.

Spring washers provide light anti-loosening support by adding spring action under the nut or bolt head, but they should not be treated as a universal locking solution for critical vibration, high-preload or safety joints. For demanding service, confirm the locking method with the project standard or engineering drawing.

SS304 / A2 is suitable for general stainless assemblies, while SS316 / A4 is preferred for marine, coastal, washdown and chloride-exposed environments. Spring washers are often supplied together with stainless bolts, hex nuts and flat washers as a complete assembly kit.

Selection

Selection Advantages by Application

Solar PV Mounting Systems

M8, M10 and M12 stainless spring washers may be used in non-critical PV brackets or accessory hardware where the drawing specifies a split washer. For structural clamps, confirm the approved locking method.

Renewable energy fasteners

Marine & Coastal Hardware

SS316 / A4 spring washers are preferred for light marine hardware, covers and stainless auxiliary assemblies exposed to salt spray. Common RFQ sizes include M6, M8, M10 and M12.

Marine fasteners

Construction & Outdoor Structures

Stainless spring washers can support railings, covers, service panels and non-critical outdoor assemblies. M8, M10, M12 and M16 are common starting points when paired with stainless hex bolts and nuts.

Construction fasteners

Railway & Rolling Stock Equipment

M5, M6, M8 and M10 stainless spring washers are often requested for access covers, brackets and maintenance assemblies where the project drawing calls for a split lock washer.

Railway fasteners

Water Treatment / Washdown Equipment

SS316 / A4 passivated spring washers are suitable for selected pump, skid and equipment cover assemblies. Confirm cleanability, crevice risk and whether a nylon lock nut or other locking method is more appropriate.

FAQ

Common Questions Before RFQ

What are DIN 127 stainless spring washers used for?

DIN 127 stainless spring washers are used where a drawing or bill of material specifies a split spring washer for light anti-loosening support. Critical vibration or structural joints should confirm the approved locking method.

Should I choose SS304 or SS316 spring washers?

SS304 / A2 is suitable for general corrosion-resistant assemblies. SS316 / A4 is preferred for marine, coastal, washdown, chemical or chloride-exposed environments.

What sizes are commonly requested?

Common RFQ sizes include M5, M6, M8, M10, M12 and M16 stainless spring washers. Size, standard, material, finish and certificate requirements should be confirmed by drawing or purchase specification.

Are spring washers suitable for all anti-loosening applications?

No. Spring washers are light anti-loosening components and may not be suitable for critical vibration, high-preload or safety joints. Consider nylon insert lock nuts, toothed lock washers or other approved locking methods when required.

Can spring washers be supplied in stainless bolt kits?

Yes. Stainless spring washers can be supplied with stainless hex bolts, hex nuts and flat washers as project kits or bolt-nut-washer sets.

Is passivation available?

Yes. Passivation is available for SS304 and SS316 spring washers to improve the stainless surface condition after forming.
