This must be taken into account when designing the groove. 6 Testing 6.1. Testing the material ‘Vickers hardness test according to DIN 50 133 Part 1. Rockwell hardness test according to DIN 50103 Part 1. In cases of doubt, the Vickers hardness test shall apply. 6.2 Bend and fracture test ‘The lock washer shall be fitted radially onto a hardened pin with a diameter of 1,1 dz (nominal size) and kept at ambient temperature for 48 hours. The lock washer must not break. 6.3. Testing of flatness “The lock washer must fall through two parallel, perpendicular plates spaced 1,1 s apart (nominal size). 6.4. Testing the function (permanent set and grip test) “The lock washer shall be fitted five times onto a hardened pin with groove diameter (minimum dimension) and removed four times. It must remain in position still under tension also on the occasion of the fifth fitting. 65 Acceptance testing “The basic principles for testing and acceptance according to DIN 267 Part 5 shall apply for the acceptance testing. ‘Table 3 applies to the features, while table 4 applies in respect of the acceptable quality level.

Hardness testing shall be in accordance with DIN 267 Part 5, April 1968 edition, clause 5. With lock washers, the hardness testing shall be regarded as a destructive test 7 Load bearing capacity ‘A lock washer connection requires separate calculations for the load bearing capacities of the groove Fry and for the load bearing capacity of the lock washer Fs, In each case the weaker partis that which shall apply. The load bearing capacities (Fx, Fs, Fog) listed in clause 3 contain no safeguards against plastic flow under static load nor against fatigue fracture Under fluctuating load. There is at least twice the level of reliability against fracture under static loading. 7.4 Load bearing capacity of the groove Fy, “The Fy values in table 1 (load bearing capacity of the groove) apply to grooves in parts of materials up to 200 N/mm? vyield point, edge margins n and refer to the shaft diameter dy’. \9 capacity Fy’ for materials with a yield point Rg,” (previously 0,") deviating from 200 N/mm? directly Load bea proportional to the yield point. oF =F * 200) Where the shaft diameter d; deviates from dj’, the load bearing capacity of the groove Fy is calculated from 7.2 Losd bearing capacity of the lock washer F's “The load bearing capacity of the lock washer Fs according to clause 3 applies to a sharp-edged abutment of the pressure Wap ] } Z| LI 4) Sharp-edged abutment 'b) Abutment with edge chamfering {chamfering or rounding) Figure 4.

With the use of lock washers of a different material with a different elastic modulus B’, then, for conversion, the load bearing capacity of the washer is directly proportional to the modulus of elasticity. ge 210000 Fe! = Fg ry 210000 Psi 1 = Fag It the edge chamfering distance g’ deviates from the values in clause 3, then, for conwersion, the load bearing capacity indirectly proportional to the edge chamfering distance ‘Note: If Fgg’ with small values of gis greater than Fg, then F's applies.Page 6 DIN 6799 8 Detachment speed “The application of lock washers is limited by those rotational speeds which could cause the washers to spring out of their seatings.. In clause 3, therefore, detachment speeds mats are given at which the washers may spring out. The values apply only to lock washers of spring steels according to clause 4. 9 Finish of the groove “The dimensions given in table 1 for the groove width m apply to standard cases. In the case of high precision or alternate- sided loading, narrower groove widths can be selected and, in the case of reduced accuracy requirements, wider groove ‘widths can also be selected. ‘Standards referred to DIN 267 Part § Bolts, screws, nuts and similar threaded and formed parts; technical delivery conditions; testing and acceptance DIN 267 Part 9 Fasteners; technical delivery conditions; electroplated coatings DIN 17222 Cold rolled steel strip for springs; technical delivery conditions DIN 40080 Procedures and tables for random testing using qualitative features (inspection by attributes) DIN 50021 Corrosion tests; spray tests with different sodium chloride solutions DIN 50103 Part 1 Testing of metallic materials; Rockwell hardness test; C, A, B, F methods DIN 60133 Part 1 Testing of metallic materials; Vickers hardness test; test load range: 49 to 980 N (5 to 100 kp) DIN 50150 “Testing of steel and steel castings; conversion table for Vickers hardness, Brinell hardness, Rockwell hardness and tensile strength DIN 50938 Alkaline blackening (black finishing) of iron material; principles of methods, symbols, testing DIN 50942 Phosphating of metals; general directions, symbols and methods of testing DIN 6799: 11.50, 11.54, 05.63, Amendments Compared with the May 1963 edition the following amendments have been made: 2} contents of the standard revised and extended. b) technical delivery conditions and principles of calculation included. Explanations “The present revised edition of DIN 6799 replaces the May 1963 edition. It has been extended to cover the technical delivery conditions and principles of calculation in order to provide a whole and complete standard which can be applied without the inclusion of additional standards, The following explanations are given with respect to this standard. Retitle “The term “retaining washers” has been added to the title of the standard. The old designation “lock washer” has been. retained, although these elements are used only for the axial retention of components on shafts and have no locking ‘ction. The organizational problems associated with a general change in designation desirable for the sake of clarity were, because of the wide distribution of these standards, also rated as more important than the danger of misunderstood information on the part of the standards user due to an inappropriate title. Re clause 1 Concept ‘This clause was included in order to prevent possible errors in the application and function of the parts resulting from the designation. Re clause 2 Dimension lettering, formula symbols Clause 2 lists and describes the dimension lettering and formula symbols used in the standard. Re clause 3. Dimensions, designation, constructional data “The clause contains the dimensions of the lock washers. Required constructional data have been added. The dimensions. of the lock washers or their tolerances have been corrected slightly in a few cases without any danger thereby of replacement difficulties.DIN 6799 Page 7 Re clause 4 Material Details of the material have been modified. Three materials have been selected as the most usual from DIN 17 222, Other ‘materials shall be the subject of agreement between the parties concerned. Re clause 5 Finish Details of the finish have been extended and adapted to present conditions. With electroplated lock washers, the danger of hydrogen embrittlement is relatively great and requires special attention within the context of DIN 267 Part 9. Particular reference has therefore been made to DIN 267 Part 9, According to this standard, the situation is approximately as follows: In order to avoid hydrogen-induced delayed brittle fractures in the electroplated surface protection of lock washers, the electroplating treatment and heat treatment before and after electroplating shall be selected so that only a small amount ‘of hydrogen is taken up in the pickling and electroplating treatment and this hydrogen is furthermore driven off again to a large extent. Normally, delayed brittle fractures can be avoided by these measures. If brittle fractures have to be avoided with specific, statistical certainty, the taking of appropriate quantities of random samples is recommended followed by fatigue testing of these samples over 48 hours at ambient temperature according to subclause 6.2. Re clause 6 Testing Clause 6 about the testing of lock washers is new to the standard. It details tests which are required for the assessment of the mechanical and functional properties of lock washers, The contents of this clause result from the experience of manufacturers and users and correspond to the general applications of lock washers. ‘This also applies to the details of acceptance testing given in subclause 6.6. These details are based on DIN 267 Part 5. Special agreements are not thereby excluded. Re clause 7 Load bearing capacity Clause 7 contains details of the calculations of the load bearing capacities of lock washers and indicates how the data given in table 1 have arisen. These data refer only to normal applications, but clause 7 states the principles for ‘calculating the load bearing capacities also for other applications. Re clause 8 Detachment speed Clause 8 is supplementary to clause 7 and explains the detachment speeds in table 1. Re clause 9 Finish of the groove ‘Appropriate details are given in clause 9 for the finish of the grooves for lock washers and these apply to general applications.
