DIN 434 Square Beveled Washer(8%) (For Channels) - A4 Stainless

DIN 434 Square Beveled Washer (8%) for Channels — A4 Marine Stainless Steel (SUS316), Whitened & Passivated

FULLERKREG DIN 434 square beveled washers are manufactured to DIN 434 standard in A4 marine stainless steel (SUS316 / 1.4401 / 06Cr17Ni12Mo2) with a whitened and passivated surface finish. DIN 434 is a square taper washer with an 8% bevel (approximately 4.6°) specifically designed for use with steel channels (UPN / UPE / C-sections). The tapered profile compensates for the natural inward slope of the channel flange, ensuring the bolt head or nut bears flat and evenly — eliminating bending stress on the bolt shank. A4 stainless steel contains 2–3% molybdenum, providing superior resistance to chloride corrosion and seawater — the correct choice for marine, offshore, and coastal structural channel connections where A2 (SUS304) may suffer pitting corrosion.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Why choose A4 over A2 for marine channel connections?
A: A4 (SUS316) contains 2–3% molybdenum which significantly improves resistance to chloride pitting and crevice corrosion. In seawater, coastal, or chloride-rich environments, A4 is the correct choice where A2 (SUS304) may suffer pitting over time.

Q: What is DIN 434?
A: DIN 434 is a square taper washer with an 8% bevel (approx. 4.6°) designed for use with steel channels (UPN/UPE/C-sections). The tapered profile compensates the natural inward slope of the channel flange, ensuring the bolt head or nut bears flat and evenly, eliminating bending stress on the bolt shank.

Q: What is the difference between DIN 434 and DIN 435?
A: DIN 434 (8% bevel) is for steel channels (UPN/UPE) with a shallower flange taper. DIN 435 (14% bevel) is for I-beams and H-beams (IPE/HEA/HEB) with a steeper flange taper. Always match the washer bevel to the section type.

Q: Do you provide material test certificates?
A: Yes. Mill certificates, chemical composition reports, and dimensional inspection reports are available upon request.
