# Conical spring washers DIN 6796, M2–M125: bore, outside diameter, thickness, height, load to flat + 10 cone models

> What are the dimensions of a DIN 6796 conical spring washer (M6, M8, M10), and what is the difference from DIN 2093 disc springs?

- Category: Hardware › Fasteners
- Kind: Standard part
- Basis: fasten.it's DIN 6796 table (08/2009 edition, M2 to M125) checked against Westfield Fasteners (M2 to M30, with tolerance classes) and a Böllhoff stainless data sheet (M3 to M16); ten revolved cones as files

**Exact dimensions.** Every file is drawn at true size with no tolerance added. The holes and pins that meet another part are listed below under Mating features, with the fit each joint needs; open those by your process's clearance before making the part.

## Notes

- Millimetres. DIN 6796 conical spring washers for bolted connections (the 08/2009 edition supersedes 10/1987). fasten.it prints the bore as 'd' and the outside diameter as 'd1' without defining them; Westfield names the bore d1 (class H14) and the OD d2 (class h14). Both give the same numbers. Columns here: bore, OD, thickness s, free height h min / max, approximate load to flat (N, fasten.it only; Westfield's page has no force column) and approximate mass in kg per 1000 pieces.
- Agreement: fasten.it and Westfield give identical bore, OD and h for M2 to M30; Böllhoff's stainless sheet agrees on d1, d2, s and h for M3, 3.5, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14 and 16. One difference: for M7 fasten.it prints s 1.8, Westfield 1.75 (M7 has no file). fasten.it prints a 37.2 bore for M36, which Westfield's page does not reach. The load column is as printed by fasten.it and is not a spring rate.
- DIN 6796 is a single-cone washer for taking up play and keeping preload in bolted joints; it is not the DIN 2093 Belleville disc spring (see disc-springs-din-2093, which has load-deflection series). Wave forms: wave-spring-washers-din-137.
- Files: a plain revolved cone with the published bore, OD and thickness s, drawn at the maximum free height h (inner edge up). h min / h max are printed as a range, so the file shows the upper limit only; no chamfers, radii or edge rounding are published as numbers. Böllhoff (maker) sells these with CAD per article; linked, not copied.

## Questions

**What are the dimensions of a DIN 6796 M8 conical washer?**

Bore 8.4 mm, OD 18 mm, thickness 2 mm, free height 2.24 to 2.6 mm (fasten.it and Westfield); load to flat about 14 900 N (fasten.it).

**How is DIN 6796 different from DIN 2093?**

DIN 6796 is a stiff conical washer for bolted joints with a bore sized to the bolt; DIN 2093 is a Belleville disc spring series with defined load-deflection curves.

**What tolerance class is the bore of a DIN 6796 washer?**

H14 for the bore and h14 for the OD (Westfield).
