This International Standard specifies the characteristics of hexagon head bolts with metric fine pitch thread with nominal thread diameters, d, from 8 mm to 64 mm, of product grade A for nominal thread diameters, d, from 8 mm to 24 mm and nominal lengths, l, up to and including 10d or 150 mm, whichever is the shorter, and of product grade B for nominal thread diameters, d, over 24 mm or nominal lengths, l, over 10d or 150 mm, whichever is the shorter.
If, in special cases, specifications other than those listed in this International Standard are required, they can be selected from existing International Standards, for example ISO 724, ISO 888, ISO 898-1, ISO 965-1, ISO 3506-1, ISO 4753 and ISO 4759-1.
It is intended that coarse thread bolts according to ISO 4014 be the first choice.
