M16 Serrated Lock Washers is the m16-thread variant of Serrated Lock Washers manufactured to DIN 6798. This page focuses on the data engineers reach for at the bench: dimensional values for the M16 size, the spanner/drive that fits, and the assembly data you need to install it.

When to Step Up or Down from M16
When the joint preload approaches the proof load of M16 class 8.8, step up to M20 class 8.8 (or move to M16 class 10.9). When the joint is over-specified, M12 often saves weight and cost without losing the safety margin.
