Overview

SIST EN ISO 2162-1:1998 is an essential international standard developed by CEN, providing detailed rules for the simplified representation of springs in technical product documentation. This standard applies to a variety of spring types including compression, extension, torsion, disc, spiral, and leaf springs. By standardizing the graphical representation on technical drawings, it enhances clarity, understanding, and communication across engineering and manufacturing disciplines.

This document is the first part of ISO 2162, focusing exclusively on simplified visual representations of springs, thereby supporting efficient and consistent technical drawings that facilitate product design, development, and quality assurance processes.

Key Topics

  • Scope and Purpose

    • Defines simplified methods for representing various types of springs on technical drawings.
    • Covers compression, extension, torsion, disc (Belleville), spiral, and leaf springs.
    • Promotes uniformity and industry-wide understanding by standardizing symbols and drawing conventions.
  • Graphical Representation Rules

    • Springs are represented by lines following the spring's axis and cross-sectional graphical symbols.
    • Includes specifications for indicating geometrical characteristics such as wire cross-section and helix direction (right- or left-hand).
    • Covers representation of spring ends (e.g., ground or ungrounded ends) with clear indications if non-standard.
  • Spring Types Detailed

    • Helical compression springs: Simplified with axes lines; distinctions between cylindrical and conical shapes.
    • Extension springs: Similar conventions with emphasis on end shapes and diameter uniformity.
    • Torsion springs: Indications of material cross-section and helix direction, including torsion bars and laminated variants.
    • Disc springs (Belleville springs): Simplified views provided for single and multiple disc assemblies.
    • Spiral springs: Cross-section and end configurations detailed for strip-type spiral springs.
    • Leaf springs: Represented with or without eyes, including laminated and parabolic designs with auxiliary springs.
  • Normative References

    • Incorporates references to related standards such as ISO 5261 (graphical symbols), ISO 2162-2 (data presentation for cylindrical helical compression springs), ISO 5864 (thread specification), and others to ensure comprehensive documentation.

Applications

  • Used extensively in mechanical engineering, product design, and manufacturing for creating clear, consistent technical drawings of springs.
  • Facilitates communication between design engineers, drafters, and manufacturing teams, minimizing interpretation errors.
  • Supports industries including automotive, aerospace, consumer products, and machinery where springs are critical components.
  • Assists in quality control and verification by providing standardized visual references for spring characteristics.
  • Integral for CAD modeling and technical documentation automation, enabling software interoperability and compliance with international drawing standards.

Related Standards

  • ISO 2162-2:1993 – Technical product documentation for presentation of data specific to cylindrical helical compression springs.
  • ISO 5261:1981 – Technical drawings for structural metalwork graphical symbols.
  • ISO 5864:1978 – Technical specifications for screw threads which relate to spring helix directions.
  • Additional parts of ISO 2162 series cover other aspects such as vocabulary and specific data presentations for springs.

SIST EN ISO 2162-1:1998 is invaluable for organizations creating technical documentation involving springs, offering a clear, standardized method to depict varied spring types. This ensures precision in engineering drawings and promotes efficient collaboration across international manufacturing and design environments.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide
federation of national Standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work
of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Esch member body interested in a subject for
which a technical committee has been established has the right to be
represented on that committee. International organizations, govern-
mental and non-governmental in liaison with ISO, also take part in the
work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are
circulated to the member bodies for voting Publication as an Inter-
national Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member
bodies casting a vote.
International Standard ISO 2162-1 was prepared by Technical Com-
mittee ISO/TC 10, Technical drawings, product definition and related
documentation, Su b-Committee SC 6, Mechanical engineering docu-
mentation.
This first edition of ISO 2162-1 cancels and replaces ISO 2162:1973, of
which it constitutes an extension and technical revision.
ISO 2162 consists of the following Parts, under the general title Tech-
