DIN 472 is the standard for retaining rings for holes, whereas DIN 471 has rings for shafts. This is an active standard with no ISO equivalent.
It consists of 88 unique sizes from 8 to 300mm and comes in three materials. The latest revision is from 2017. You can purchase the standard from DIN here.
88 sizes * 3 materials = 264 files

European engineers love DIN standards, but most DIN standards were withdrawn in 1992. Most of them have an ISO replacement.
We only offer fasteners for active standards because we purchase the standard document and use it as a source for our fastener models.
Lock and spring washers do not work well so their standards are withdrawn without a replacement.
We were tired of scrolling through endless lists of fasteners in SOLIDWORKS, so we built Lightning. Lightning makes it easy to add, edit and replace fasteners.
Just open the filter, pick a type, size and material, then drag the file into your assembly. Lightning will add a washer and/or a pattern for you.
