Interchangeability

DIN 125 A is catalogued with ISO 7089 as its equivalent designation. Dimensions are compared field by field rather than assumed identical.

Choosing and fitting this size

DIN 125 A M20 is a washer with a 21 mm inside diameter. It sits under a bolt head or nut to spread the clamping load; the inside diameter matches the bolt it is specified for, so the washer and fastener should always be ordered as a pair.

Hardness is the governing property rather than tensile strength: a 200 HV washer suits bolts up to class 10.9, while 140 HV washers are intended for class 8.8 and below. Using a soft washer under a high-grade bolt lets the washer deform before the bolt reaches its preload, which quietly loses clamping force.
