HEX NUT DIMENSIONS (METRIC)

Metric hex nut sizes and dimensions are shown in the following chart according to ISO 4032, ISO 4033, ISO 4034 and ISO 4759-1 standards.

Some important notes from the ISO standards about metric hex nuts:

- ISO 4032 specifies the characteristics of hex regular nuts, style 1, with threads from M1.6 up to including M64, with product grade A for threads d ≤ M16 and product grade B for threads d > M16.

- Mechanical properties of ISO 4032 hex regular nuts: Steel - M3 ≤ d ≤ M39 - Property class 6, 8, 10 , Stainless steel - d ≤ M24: Property class A2-70, A4-70 , M24 < d ≤ M39 - Property class A2-50, A4-50

- ISO 4033 specifies the characteristics of hex high nuts, style 2, with threads from M5 up to and including M36, with product grade A for threads d ≤ M16 and product grade B for threads d > M16.

- Mechanical properties of ISO 4033 hex high nuts: Steel - Property class 9 and 12

- ISO 4034 specifies the characteristics of hex regular nuts, with threads from M5 up to and including M64 and product grade C.

- Mechanical properties of ISO 4034 hex regular nuts: Steel - M16 ≤ d - Property class 5, M16 < d ≤ M39 - Property class 4, 5

Note 1: Dimensions are in mm.

Note 2 :Requirements for electroplating are covered in ISO 4042 for steel nuts

Note 3: Requirements for nonelectrolytically applied zinc flake coatings are covered in ISO 10683 for steel nuts.

Note 4: Non-preferred threads according to ISO standards: M3.5, M14, M18, M22, M27, M33, M39, M45, M52, M60.


Definitions:

Product Grade A, Grade B and Grade C: The product grades refer to the size of the tolerances where grade A is the most precise and grade C is the least precise as defined in the ISO 4759-1:2000 standard.
