Hardness classes for nuts without specified proof load values

This standard contains hardness classes for nuts whose properties (usually the shape and dimensions) are such that they cannot be assigned definite load values but can only be classified according to their hardness and marked accordingly.

 

Field of Application

This does not apply to nuts which

  • are subjected to proof loads to DIN EN 20898-2 and DIN EN ISO 898-6
  • prevailing torque type nuts to DIN EN ISO 2320
  • are weldable
  • have corrosion resistance (DIN EN ISO 3506-2
  • used in temperatures above 300°C or below -50°C (DIN 267 Part 13)

Nuts made from free-cutting steel shall not be used above 250°C.

Mechanical Properties Table

These properties apply for testing at standard room temperature and pressure.
