The DIN 6795 standard deals with Grounding Washers, also known as anti-loosening washers or clawed washers. These washers are typically used for electrical grounding or other applications where it is necessary to prevent fasteners from loosening. They are usually made of carbon steel and galvanized for corrosion resistance.
Carbon Steel: Typically used for general applications.
Stainless Steel: For environments where corrosion resistance is required.
Alloy Steels: Used in applications requiring high strength or high temperature resistance.
Advantage:
Anti-loosening feature: DIN 6795 standardized washers are designed to help prevent bolts or screws from loosening under vibration or shock. Grounding performance: These washers are typically used in electrical grounding applications to ensure good electrical connection and grounding performance. Corrosion resistance: The galvanized finish provides additional protection against metal corrosion, especially in wet or chemical environments.
Scope of Application
Electrical Grounding: In electrical equipment and systems, used to ensure a good ground connection to prevent electric shock and electrical fires. Machinery and equipment manufacturing: In machinery and equipment manufacturing, for fixing and adjusting machine parts such as bearings, gears and motors. Building and civil engineering: In building and civil engineering, for connecting beams, columns and other structural components to provide stable and reliable connections. Automotive industry: In automotive manufacturing, for connecting automotive components such as chassis and body fixings.
