DIN 7349 Thick Flat Washer — Low Carbon Steel, Zinc CR3
FULLERKREG DIN 7349 thick flat washers are manufactured to DIN 7349 standard in low carbon steel with a Zinc CR3 (trivalent chromium) electroplated finish. DIN 7349 washers are specifically designed for use with bolts that have heavy-type spring pins (DIN 7346 / ISO 8752), featuring a larger outer diameter and greater thickness than standard DIN 125 flat washers for superior load distribution and bearing surface. The Zinc CR3 finish delivers reliable corrosion protection with full RoHS compliance — the modern, environmentally safe alternative to hexavalent chromium coatings.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is DIN 7349 and how does it differ from DIN 125?
A: DIN 7349 is a thick flat washer standard designed for bolts with heavy-type spring pins (DIN 7346). Compared to DIN 125, DIN 7349 washers have a larger outer diameter and greater thickness, providing a wider bearing surface and better load distribution in heavy-duty applications.
Q: What is Zinc CR3 and why is it preferred over traditional zinc plating?
A: Zinc CR3 uses trivalent chromium (Cr3+) passivation instead of the traditional hexavalent chromium (Cr6+). It is fully RoHS and ELV compliant, provides equivalent or better corrosion protection (≥72h salt spray), and eliminates the environmental and health risks associated with Cr6+ coatings.
Q: Is Zinc CR3 suitable for outdoor use?
A: Zinc CR3 is suitable for indoor and light outdoor (sheltered) environments. For prolonged outdoor exposure, coastal, or high-humidity environments, stainless steel grades (A2 or A4) are recommended.
Q: Are these washers RoHS compliant?
A: Yes. FULLERKREG Zinc CR3 washers use trivalent chromium passivation only — no hexavalent chromium (Cr6+). Full RoHS and REACH compliance documentation is available upon request.
Q: Can I order mixed sizes in one shipment?
A: Yes. FULLERKREG supports mixed-size wholesale orders. Please contact us with your size breakdown and quantities for a custom quotation.
Q: Do you provide material test certificates?
A: Yes. Mill certificates, dimensional inspection reports, and surface treatment test reports are available for all orders upon request.
