Spanner & Drive for M4 Serrated Lock Washers

Drive geometry for M4 Serrated Lock Washers is given by the row above; match the tool to the listed values.

Common Applications for M4 Serrated Lock Washers

M4 Serrated Lock Washers are commonly specified for small electronics hardware and precision assemblies.

Mating Parts for M4

A M4 flat washer pairs with a M4 bolt/screw and matching M4 nut.

When to Step Up or Down from M4

When the joint preload approaches the proof load of M4 class 8.8, step up to M5 class 8.8 (or move to M4 class 10.9). When the joint is over-specified, M3 often saves weight and cost without losing the safety margin.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is M4 Serrated Lock Washers suitable for electronics and small mechanisms?

M4 Serrated Lock Washers is in the micro range and is widely used in electronics, instrument enclosures and small precision mechanisms. Watch the over-torque margin — micro joints strip easily.

What's the typical proof load behavior of M4 class 8.8?

Micro-thread joints are sensitive to plastic deformation in the first turn under load — use a torque-limiting driver and check the bearing surface deformation on softer mating materials.

Which washer dimensions matter most for M4?

For a flat washer, the outside diameter (the bearing surface) and the thickness control how the load is spread under the head and how much elastic preload is preserved. The inside diameter must clear the bolt body but not be so large that the head bears mostly on the washer's outer rim.

What is the coarse-thread pitch of M4 for Serrated Lock Washers?

For M4 the standard coarse pitch is 0.7 mm — this is the value used for Serrated Lock Washers.
