Nimonic 75 Flat washers distribute clamp load over a wider bearing area, prevent surface damage, and accommodate bolt-hole oversize. TorqBolt manufactures Nimonic 75 Flat 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.
Nimonic 75 Flat 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.
Nimonic 75 Flat 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 Nimonic 75 Flat 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.
Nimonic is a family of wrought nickel-chromium superalloys originally developed for jet-engine turbine blade and bolting service, where steady-state operating temperatures exceed 700°C under high cyclic stress. Composition centers on ~50-75% Ni, 15-22% Cr, 0-20% Co with Ti+Al additions for γ' precipitation hardening. Nimonic alloys retain creep strength well beyond the limits of conventional Fe-Ni-Cr superalloys.
Nimonic 75 (UNS N06075) is the simplest grade: solid-solution Ni-Cr without precipitation hardening, used for furnace fixtures and mild-temperature bolting to 760°C. Nimonic 80A (N07080) adds Ti+Al for age-hardening — tensile ~1100 MPa, the workhorse of steam-turbine and exhaust-valve bolting per ASTM B637 / AMS 5662. Nimonic 90 (N07090) adds 16-20% Co for service to 920°C with stress-rupture life suitable for gas-turbine combustor bolts.
Nimonic fasteners ship per ASTM B637 / B564 with EN 10204 3.1 / 3.2 certs covering chemistry, hardness (HRC 30-42), tensile at room + elevated temperature, and stress-rupture acceptance per the heat-treat condition. NACE MR0175 sour-service compliance available in solution-annealed condition.
