For p-clips and cushioned clamps (din 3015), DIN 3015 is the governing document for the dimensions listed below. Mechanical and performance requirements for this part family are set by its own standards, not by the bolt and screw property-class documents.
DIN 3015 — Scope
DIN 3015 specifies the dimensional requirements for p-clips and cushioned clamps (din 3015).
Material, surface condition and any performance rating are set by separate documents specific to this part family — ISO 898-1 and ISO 898-2, which govern bolt and nut property classes, do not apply here.
Tolerance & Product Grades
Tolerances for p-clips and cushioned clamps (din 3015) are given as limits on the individual dimensions in the table rather than as a fastener product grade.
Where a general-tolerance class is cited on the drawing instead, it applies to the dimensions not otherwise toleranced.
Dimensions Specified by DIN 3015
| Clip bore | Lining | Mounting screw | Typical use |
|---|---|---|---|
| 6 mm | EPDM or PVC | M5 | small cable and tube runs |
| 8 mm | EPDM or PVC | M5 | small cable and tube runs |
| 10 mm | EPDM or PVC | M6 | hydraulic and pneumatic tube |
| 12 mm | EPDM or PVC | M6 | hydraulic and pneumatic tube |
| 16 mm | EPDM or PVC | M6 | hose and cable bundles |
| 20 mm | EPDM or PVC | M8 | hose and cable bundles |
| 25 mm | EPDM or PVC | M8 | larger hose runs |
| 32 mm | EPDM or PVC | M8 | larger hose runs |
Equivalent Standards
Where direct equivalents exist (ISO ↔ DIN, ISO ↔ ASME), they are listed on the parent P-Clips and Cushioned Clamps (DIN 3015) page.
Always confirm against the dimensions on this page, since some "equivalent" standards differ in tolerances and head geometry.
When to Specify DIN 3015
DIN 3015 is still widely used in European mechanical engineering and as a cross-reference on legacy drawings; its ISO equivalent is preferred for new designs.
