DIN EN 16983 describes quality requirements and dimensions for disc springs. For practical testing, the spring force at defined test heights, the spring deflection, and the resulting force-displacement characteristic are particularly relevant.
DIN EN ISO 6507 is the internationally recognized standard for Vickers hardness testing of metallic materials. It regulates test forces, procedure, and evaluation of the method for hard metals, sintered carbides, and metallic and other inorganic coatings.
DIN EN ISO 6892-2 regulates the tensile test on metallic materials above room temperature and specifies the conditions under which temperature-dependent characteristic values such as yield strength, tensile strength and elongation at break are determined when a material is subjected to stress at several hundred degrees Celsius.
The standard DIN 51917 specifies the procedure for hardness testing of carbon materials using Rockwell HR5/150. It defines the test conditions under which the hardness of technical carbon, graphite and related materials can be reliably and reproducibly determined.
The standard DIN EN ISO 898-1 is an important basis for the safe design of bolted connections in mechanical engineering, automotive engineering and industrial assemblies.
The standards ASTM E8 and ASTM E8M regulate the performance of tensile tests on metallic materials and are among the most important standards in materials testing worldwide.
