Double Fold Self-locking Washer in Accordance with DIN 25201 Requirements(Steel/Stainless Steel)

As a high-performance self-locking fastener complying with the German industrial standard DIN 25201, the Double Fold Self-Locking Washer is engineered with a unique double-folded structure to deliver reliable anti-loosening performance in dynamic load scenarios. Available in carbon steel and stainless steel variants, it is widely applied across industrial, automotive, and infrastructure sectors. This introduction details its design features, performance metrics, application guidelines, and compliance specifications.

Core Structural Characteristics

The washer adopts a symmetrical double-folded configuration, consisting of two annular metal sheets folded along the central axis to form a pre-compressed elastic gap. Key structural parameters comply with DIN 25201: the fold angle is standardized at 15°-20°, the elastic gap width ranges from 0.2mm to 1.8mm (varies by size), and the inner diameter features a smooth chamfer (C0.3-C1.0) to avoid thread damage during installation. Additionally, the outer edge is designed with a deburred finish to prevent scratches on connected components.

 Self-Locking Mechanism

  • Preloaded Elastic Locking: The double-folded structure stores elastic potential energy during installation. When the bolt/nut is tightened, the folded sheets exert continuous axial preload on the connection interface, maintaining stable clamping force and resisting loosening caused by vibration or thermal expansion/contraction.
  • Wedge Effect: The inclined contact surface between the folded layers generates a wedge effect under lateral forces. This converts the loosening torque into axial clamping force, forming a "self-reinforcing" anti-loosening loop.
  • Multi-Point Contact Friction: The double-layer structure creates two independent friction interfaces (washer-bolt head and washer-workpiece). Compared with single-layer washers, the total friction coefficient is increased by 40%-60%, significantly enhancing anti-loosening durability.

 Surface Treatments

  • Carbon Steel Variants: Zinc Plating (Yellow/White): Corrosion resistance ≥ 200h salt spray (DIN 50021), cost-effective for general environments.
  • Phosphating + Oil Coating: Enhances friction coefficient (μ ≥ 0.35) and anti-rust performance, suitable for high-torque connections.
  • Dacromet Coating: Environmentally friendly, corrosion resistance ≥ 1000h salt spray, compliant with RoHS standards.
Stainless Steel Variants: Passivation Treatment: Removes surface oxide film, improves corrosion resistance and surface gloss (DIN EN ISO 15730).
Electropolishing: Reduces surface roughness (Ra ≤ 0.8μm), suitable for high-cleanliness applications (e.g., pharmaceutical equipment).

 Standard 

DIN 25201 specifies the technical requirements for double fold self-locking washers, including dimensional tolerances, material composition, mechanical properties, corrosion resistance testing, and marking requirements. All our products undergo third-party testing to meet Class A dimensional accuracy (tolerance ±0.05mm for key dimensions) and pass the dynamic anti-loosening test (500,000 vibration cycles without loosening).
