Scope and Application of DIN EN 15800
DIN EN 15800 applies to cylindrical helical springs made of round wire with a diameter from 0.1 mm to 10 mm, which are cold coiled and subjected to static or low dynamic loads. It does not apply to springs made of other materials, such as stainless steel or copper alloys, or to springs that are hot coiled or subjected to high dynamic loads. It also does not cover the design and calculation of springs, which are specified in other standards, such as EN 13906-1.
DIN EN 15800 specifies the quality requirements for the following aspects of cylindrical helical springs:
The material and its chemical composition, mechanical properties, surface condition, and corrosion resistance.
The dimensions and tolerances of the spring body, the spring ends, and the spring pitch.
The load and deflection characteristics, such as the spring rate, the spring force, the spring stiffness, and the spring index.
The stress and fatigue resistance, such as the permissible stress range, the endurance limit, and the fatigue test method.
The inspection and testing procedures, such as the sampling plan, the dimensional measurement, the load test, the stress test, and the fatigue test.
The marking and identification of springs, such as the manufacturer's name, the batch number, and the spring code.
Benefits and Advantages of DIN EN 15800
DIN EN 15800 provides a common and consistent standard for cylindrical helical springs made of round wire in Europe. It helps to ensure the quality and reliability of springs and to facilitate their interchangeability and compatibility. It also helps to reduce the cost and time of testing and inspection by providing clear and uniform criteria and methods. Moreover, it promotes the harmonization and integration of the European market for springs by aligning with other international standards, such as ISO 16269-6.
Conclusion
DIN EN 15800 is a European standard that defines the quality specifications for cold coiled compression springs made of round wire. It was published in 2009 by the German Institute for Standardisation (Deutsches Institut fÃr Normung) and is identical to EN 15800:2008. It supersedes the previous standard DIN 2095, which was withdrawn in 2009.
