57117 Battery (DIN70): Specs, Fitment, and Cross-Reference
Part of the DIN Battery Standard guide.
The 57117 (DIN70) is a mid-range DIN battery for European vehicles requiring 70 Ah capacity. It sits between the entry-level DIN66 (66 Ah) and the larger DIN72/75 models. CCA is confirmed from the official Chengguang product specification; dimensional specifications remain pending verification. — contact Chengguang for your order’s exact data sheet.
Key Takeaways
- Specs — 70 Ah mid-range DIN — the step up from DIN66; CCA 600 A (EN), dimensions ~273 × 174 × 175 mm (industry ref.).
- Mounting — B13 bottom-rail, DIN post terminals.
- Cross-reference — BCI Group 48 (H6).
- Position — Second rung in the DIN capacity ladder (DIN66 → DIN70 → DIN72 → DIN75 → DIN80 → DIN88 → DIN100).

Case & Terminal Identification
Standard DIN case with a B13 bottom-rail hold-down and DIN standard post terminals. The label reads 57117 or DIN70. Within the mid-range DIN family, the label Ah rating (70 vs 66) is the primary differentiator from the DIN66.
| Identifier | Value | Check |
|---|---|---|
| Hold-down | B13 | Bottom rail lip |
| Terminal | DIN post | ∅19.5 mm + / ∅17.9 mm − |
| Capacity class | 70 Ah | Step up from DIN66 |
DIN vs JIS: DIN batteries use B13 bottom rail; JIS use B00 top frame. The two mounting systems do not interchange without an adapter.
Vehicle Applications
European mid-size sedans and SUVs requiring the DIN70 specification — the step up from DIN66 for vehicles with higher electrical demands.
Vehicle-specific compatibility data is being compiled. Contact Chengguang for the fitment list for your target market.
Regional Markets
| Region | Demand | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Europe | Core | Mid-size segment |
| Middle East | Strong | European vehicle fleet |
| Africa | Moderate | European vehicle aftermarket |
Manufacturing & Grid Alloy
The 57117 runs on Chengguang’s DIN-standard automated line in Jinzhou, Hebei, China (IATF 16949:2016 certified):
- Grid alloy — calcium-calcium (Ca-Ca) for maintenance-free operation.
- Case — standard DIN frame with B13 bottom rail molded into the base.
- Status — full plate-count and paste-density specifications are being compiled from factory records; contact Chengguang for the production order data sheet.
Testing & Quality Control
| Test | Standard | Coverage |
|---|---|---|
| CCA Cold Cranking | SAE J537 | 100% |
| Open Circuit Voltage | — | 100% |
| Visual Inspection | — | 100% |
| C20 / Charge Acceptance / Vibration | EN 50342-1 | Batch |
Full test data is available with production orders — contact Chengguang for the pass-criteria table for your order.
Charging & Service Life
- Charge voltage — SLI absorption 14.4–14.8 V; alternator output 13.8–14.4 V in service.
- Service life — 3–5 years temperate; 18–30 months in hot climates (standard SLI expectation).
Cross-Reference
| Model | Standard | Relationship |
|---|---|---|
| DIN70 | DIN | Alias — same case |
Cross-Standard Equivalents
| Standard | Model | Confidence | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| BCI | Group 48 (H6) | Low | Similar to H6 — verify |
Cross-standard matches are dimensional approximations only — electrical specs differ by standard and test method. Always verify tray dimensions, terminal type, and hold-down (B00 vs B13) before substituting.
