Overview
DIN 6798-A is a locking toothed washer. The main task of all locking fasteners is to prevent the threaded connection from loosening under the influence of vibrations, high loads and other factors arising during operation.
Fastening group DIN 6798-A
DIN 6798-A washers belong to the stainless fastener group.
Materials for the manufacture of DIN 6798-A washers
DIN 6798-A washers are made of the following materials:
- Steel, which can be optionally coated with zinc. Plated zinc protects against corrosion if the fastener is to be used in aggressive environments.
- Bronze
- Stainless steel. Steel grades A2, A4, A5 allow the bolts to be used at significant temperature drops and in aggressive and humid environments.
