Mp 35n Lock washers distribute clamp load over a wider bearing area, prevent surface damage, and accommodate bolt-hole oversize. TorqBolt manufactures Mp 35n Lock washers per ASME B18.21.1 / B18.22.1, DIN 125 / 126 / 127 / 9021, and ISO 7089 / 7090 / 7093 / 7094, in metric (M3–M100) and imperial (#4–4") sizes.
Mp 35n Lock plain washers are characterized by three critical dimensions: ID (clearance over bolt diameter), OD (load distribution area), and thickness (compressive stiffness). Standard tolerances are h13 on OD and H13 on ID per ISO 286-2; flatness 0.05 mm/100 mm and parallelism 0.05 mm/100 mm verified per lot. Edge break / chamfer per drawing.
Mp 35n Lock washers are hardness-controlled to balance load-distribution stiffness against surface damage to mating parts. Typical Vickers HV ranges: plain 140–180 HV; spring 380–440 HV; Belleville 460–540 HV. Surface finish Ra 1.6 µm or better; on critical sealing applications, Ra 0.8 µm available.
TorqBolt produces Mp 35n Lock washers in square (DIN 436), fender (oversized OD), tab / lock-tang (DIN 462 / 463), and spherical seat washer + cup combinations. EN 10204 3.1 / 3.2 material certificates standard; NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156 on request.
MP35N (UNS R30035) is a multiphase nickel-cobalt-chromium-molybdenum alloy combining ultra-high tensile strength with outstanding corrosion resistance — positioned where Inconel 718 lacks sufficient corrosion resistance and Hastelloy C-276 lacks sufficient strength. The cold-work + age-hardening response yields tensile strength >2000 MPa with excellent fatigue and stress-corrosion performance.
The MP35N microstructure is a two-phase mix of fcc + hcp regions; specific cold-work reduction (40-50%) followed by ageing at 540-650°C transforms the matrix to deliver the alloy's signature combination of strength + corrosion resistance. Composition centers on ~35% Ni, 35% Co, 20% Cr, 10% Mo.
MP35N is the dominant material for sour-well wireline + casing bolting, downhole completion equipment, surgical implants requiring biocompatibility + fatigue strength, and high-pressure aerospace fasteners. The alloy is fully qualified to NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156 across the standard hardness range (up to ~52 HRC), making it one of the few materials capable of meeting both extreme-strength and sour-service criteria simultaneously.
MP35N fasteners are supplied per ASTM F562 / AMS 5844 / 5845 with EN 10204 3.2 third-party-witnessed certification including chemistry, mechanicals, hardness, fatigue, and stress-corrosion testing. Welding is generally avoided; mechanical joints with matching MP35N hardware are preferred.
