DIN 436
DIN 436 covers square washers, especially for timber construction. The current edition is 2024-10; this table describes a commercial selection and does not replace the complete standard. DIN 436 is not ASTM F436.
A flat square washer providing a broad bearing surface, particularly for timber joints. Its round hole and parallel faces distinguish it from tapered washers for steel sections: select bore, side length and thickness for the assembly.
UNI 6596

Commercial selection M10, M12, M16, M20, M24 and M27 in 100 HV steel. Intermediate sizes and other geometries can be assessed on request. Nominal dimensions: also specify tolerances, material and finish for supply.

Dimensions in mm. Identification drawing, not a manufacturing drawing.

Indicative supplier-catalogue weight for each size in plain steel. It is not a normative or certified batch weight; do not transfer it to stainless versions or different dimensions.
The steel version described has hardness class 100 HV. Check bearing pressure on the substrate, washer bending and edge distances; a larger bearing surface alone does not determine joint capacity.
| Material | Class / hardness | Configurable range | Supply |
|---|---|---|---|
| Steel to mechanical specification | 100 HV | M10–M27 | On request |
Other dimensions, materials and finishes can be assessed on request. For substantial quantities we can review custom washers with specified sides, thicknesses and holes, agreeing requirements and minimum batch size.
| Finish | Material | Class / hardness | M |
|---|---|---|---|
| Plain / as manufactured | Steel to mechanical specification | 100 HV | M10–M27 |
The tabulated selection is plain steel. Enquire about zinc plating and other coatings, specifying service environment, coating thickness and supply requirements.

Batch documents are not automatically included: specify your requirements in the RFQ.
Related round washers are alternatives to compare for envelope, bearing surface and geometry; they are not automatically interchangeable replacements.
For timber construction, size the connection to the project requirements. The washer does not replace verification of the substrate or assembly-specific documentation.
Other diameters, lengths, materials and finishes can be assessed on request. For dedicated production, we agree geometry, requirements and minimum quantities with the customer.
