1492 BOLTS AND NUTS BOLTS, SCREWS, NUTS, AND WASERS Dimensions of bolts, screws, nuts, and washers used in machine construction are given here. For data on thread forms, see Square and ex Bolts, Screws, and Nuts in Screw Thread Systems section. American Square and exagon Bolts, Screws, and Nuts. The 1941 American Standard ASA B18.2 covered head dimensions only. In 1952 and 1955 the Standard was revised to cover the entire product. Some bolt and nut classifications were simplified by elimination or consolidation in agreements reached with the British and Canadians. In 1965 ASA B18.2 was redesignated into two standards: B18.2.1 covering square and hexagon bolts and screws including hexagon cap screws and lag screws and B18.2.2 covering square and hexagon nuts. In B18.2.1-1965, hexagon head cap screws and finished hexagon bolts were consolidated into a single product heavy semifinished hexagon bolts and heavy finished hexagon bolts were consolidated into a single product; regular semifinished hexagon bolts were eliminated; a new tolerance pattern for all bolts and screws and a positive identification procedure for determining whether an externally threaded product should be designated as a bolt or screw were established. Also included in this standard are heavy hexagon bolts and heavy hexagon structural bolts. In B18.2.2-1965, regular semifinished nuts were discontinued; regular hexagon and heavy hexagon nuts in sizes 1 4 through 1 inch, finished hexagon nuts in sizes larger than 1 1 2 inches, washer-faced semifinished style of finished nuts in sizes 5 8 -inch and smaller and heavy series nuts in sizes 7 16 -inch and smaller were eliminated. Further revisions and refinements include the addition of askew head bolts and hex head lag screws and the specifying of countersunk diameters for the various hex nuts. eavy hex structural bolts and heavy hex nuts were moved to a new structural applications standard. Additionally, B18.2.1 has been revised to allow easier conformance to Public Law 101-592. All these changes are reflected in ANSI/ASME B18.2.1-1996, and ANSI/ASME B18.2.2-1987 (R1999). Unified Square and exagon Bolts, Screws, and Nuts. Items that are recognized in the Standard as unified dimensionally with British and Canadian standards are shown in bold-face in certain tables. The other items in the same tables are based on formulas accepted and published by the British for sizes outside the ranges listed in their standards which, as a matter of information, are BS 1768:1963 (obsolescent) for Precision (Normal Series) Unified exagon Bolts, Screws, Nuts (UNC and UNF Threads) and B.S. 1769 and amendments for Black (eavy Series) Unified exagon Bolts, etc. Tolerances applied to comparable dimensions of American and British Unified bolts and nuts may differ because of rounding off practices and other factors. Differentiation between Bolt and Screw. A bolt is an externally threaded fastener designed for insertion through holes in assembled parts, and is normally intended to be tightened or released by torquing a nut. A screw is an externally threaded fastener capable of being inserted into holes in assembled parts, of mating with a preformed internal thread or forming its own thread and of being tightened or released by torquing the head. An externally threaded fastener which is prevented from being turned during assembly, and which can be tightened or released only by torquing a nut is a bolt. (Example: round head bolts, track bolts, plow bolts.) An externally threaded fastener that has a thread form which prohibits assembly with a nut having a straight thread of multiple pitch length is a screw. (Example: wood screws, tapping screws.)
BOLTS AND NUTS 1493 An externally threaded fastener that must be assembled with a nut to perform its intended service is a bolt. (Example: heavy hex structural bolt.) An externally threaded fastener that must be torqued by its head into a tapped or other preformed hole to perform its intended service is a screw. (Example: square head set screw.)

For longer bolt lengths add 0.250 inch to thread lengths shown. c Thread lengths, L T, shown are for bolt lengths over 6 inches. All dimensions are in inches. Unification: Bold type indicates product features unified dimensionally with British and Canadian Standards. Unification of fine thread products is limited to sizes 1 inch and smaller. Bearing Surface: Bearing surface is flat and washer faced. Diameter of bearing surface is equal to the maximum width across flats within a tolerance of minus 10 per cent. Threads Series: Threads, when rolled, are Unified Coarse, Fine, or 8-thread series (UNRC, UNRF, or 8 UNR Series), Class 2A. Threads produced by other methods shall preferably be UNRC, UNRF or 8 UNR but, at manufacturer's option, may be Unified Coarse, Fine or 8-thread series (UNC, UNF, or 8 UN Series), Class 2A. Material: Chemical and mechanical properties of steel screws normally conform to Grades 2, 5, or 8 of SAE J429, ASTM A449 or ASTM A354 Grade BD. Where specified, screws may also be made from brass, bronze, corrosion-resisting steel, aluminum alloy or other materials.

Dimensions given in last seven columns to the right are for these bolts only. All dimensions are in inches unless otherwise specified. Threads are Unified Standard, Class 2A, UNC Series, in accordance with ANSI B1.1. For threads with additive finish, the maximum diameters of Class 2A shall apply before plating or coating, whereas the basic diameters (Class 2A maximum diameters plus the allowance) shall apply to a bolt after plating or coating. Bolts are designated in the sequence shown: nominal size (number, fraction or decimal equivalent); threads per inch; nominal length (fraction or decimal equivalent); product name; material; and protective finish, if required.
