.. It is divided into five (nonconsecutive) parts: 1. Bolts, screws and studs with specified property classes – Coarse thread and fine pitch thread. 2. Nuts with specified proof load values – Coarse thread. 5. Set screws and similar threaded fasteners not under tensile stresses. 6. Nuts with specified proof load values – Fine pitch thread. 7. Torsional test and minimum torques for bolts and screws with nominal diameters 1 mm to 10 mm. With exception to part 7, which defines test standards, the parts of this standard define properties for fasteners made of

Part 1: Bolts, screws and studs with specified property classes – Coarse thread and fine pitch thread

Part 1 defines the mechanical properties of bolts,
screws A screw and a bolt (see '' Differentiation between bolt and screw'' below) are similar types of fastener typically made of metal and characterized by a helical ridge, called a ''male thread'' (external thread). Screws and bolts are used to fa ...

Part 2: Nuts with specified proof load values – Coarse thread

Part 2 defines the mechanical properties for coarse threaded nuts up to an M39 size and a height of at least half the nominal diameter.


Part 5: Set screws and similar threaded fasteners not under tensile stresses

Part 5 defines the mechanical properties for

Part 6: Nuts with specified proof load values – Fine pitch thread

Part 6 is the same as part 2 except for fine threaded nuts that range from M8 to M39. Note that the working temperature range for these fasteners is


Part 7: Torsional test and minimum torques for bolts and screws with nominal diameters 1 mm to 10 mm

Part 7 defines how to perform
torsional test In the field of solid mechanics, torsion is the twisting of an object due to an applied torque. Torsion is expressed in either the pascal (Pa), an SI unit for newtons per square metre, or in pounds per square inch (psi) while torque is expressed ...
