Fasteners - Prevailing torque hexagon nuts - Regular nuts (with non-metallic insert) (ISO 7040:2025)
This document specifies the characteristics of prevailing torque hexagon regular nuts (with non‑metallic insert), in steel and stainless steel, with metric coarse pitch thread M3 to M39, and with product grades A and B.
NOTE These nuts are designed with an overall height equal to mmin (as specified in ISO 898-2 and ISO 4032 for style 1) plus the prevailing torque feature. The height of the prevailing torque feature (hmax – mmin) for the non-metallic insert is identical for regular, high and thin nuts for a given diameter.
Nuts with sizes D < M5 and design principles in accordance with style 1 are specified in Annex A.
If in certain cases other specifications are requested, property classes and stainless steel grades can be selected from ISO 898-2 or ISO 3506-2.
Verbindungselemente - Sechskantmuttern mit Klemmteil - Normalhohe Muttern (mit nichtmetallischem Einsatz) (ISO 7040:2025)
Dieses Dokument legt die Eigenschaften von normalhohen Sechskantmuttern mit Klemmteil (mit nichtmetallischem Einsatz) aus Stahl und nichtrostendem Stahl mit metrischen Regelgewinden von M3 bis M39, und in Produktklassen A und B fest.
ANMERKUNG Diese Muttern sind mit einer Gesamthöhe von mmin (wie in ISO 898 2 und ISO 4032 für Typ 1 festgelegt) plus Klemmteil gestaltet. Die Höhe des Klemmteils (hmax − mmin) für den nichtmetallischen Einsatz ist für normalhohe, hohe und niedrige Muttern bei einem bestimmten Durchmesser gleich.
Muttern mit Größen D < M5 und Gestaltungsgrundsätze nach Typ 1 sind in Anhang A festgelegt.
Falls in bestimmten Fällen andere Festlegungen benötigt werden, können Festigkeitsklassen und Stahlsorten nichtrostender Stähle ISO 898 2 oder ISO 3506 2 entnommen werden.
Fixations - Écrous hexagonaux autofreinés - Écrous normaux (à anneau non métallique) (ISO 7040:2025)
Le présent document spécifie les caractéristiques des écrous normaux hexagonaux autofreinés (à anneau non métallique), en acier et en acier inoxydable, à filetage métrique à pas gros M3 à M39, et de grades A et B.
NOTE Ces écrous sont conçus avec une hauteur totale égale à mmin (tel que spécifié dans l’ISO 898-2 et l’ISO 4032 pour le style 1) plus le dispositif d’autofreinage. La hauteur du dispositif d’autofreinage (hmax – mmin) pour intégrer l’anneau non métallique est identique pour les écrous normaux, hauts et bas d’un diamètre donné.
Les écrous de diamètres D < M5 et leurs principes de conception conformément au style 1 sont spécifiés en Annexe A.
Si dans certains cas d’autres spécifications sont requises, les classes de qualité et les grades d’acier inoxydable peuvent être choisis dans l’ISO 898-2 ou l’ISO 3506-2.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through
ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee
has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations,
governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely
with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described
in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the different types
of ISO document should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the
ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see https://www.iso.org/directives-and-policies.html).
ISO draws attention to the possibility that the implementation of this document may involve the use of (a)
patent(s). ISO takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of any claimed patent
rights in respect thereof. As of the date of publication of this document, ISO had not received notice of (a)
patent(s) which may be required to implement this document. However, implementers are cautioned that
this may not represent the latest information, which may be obtained from the patent database available at
www.iso.org/patents. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO's adherence to the World Trade
Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT), see www.iso.org/iso/foreword.html.
This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 2, Fasteners, Subcommittee SC 12, Fasteners
with metric internal thread, in collaboration with the European Committee for Standardization (CEN)
Technical Committee CEN/TC 185, Fasteners, in accordance with the Agreement on technical cooperation
between ISO and CEN (Vienna Agreement).
This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition (ISO 7040:2012) which has been technically
revised.
The main changes are as follows:
— the design principles of these nuts have been clarified in scope (see Note);
— for nuts with D < M5, appropriate nut design in accordance with ISO/TR 16224, style 1, has been added
in Annex A (historical nuts not conforming to ISO 898-2 because of their heigth m less than 0,8D have
min
been deleted);
— style, relevant property classes and related quenching and tempering conditions for steel nuts have been
specified in Clause 5 in accordance with ISO 898-2 (see Table 3);
— stainless steel nuts have been added in accordance with ISO 3506-2;
— M7, M18, M22, M27, M33 and M39 have been added;
— d has been specified with two decimal places;
a,max
— d for sizes D ≤ M5 has been changed from s – IT16 to s – IT15 in order to have a larger bearing
w,min min min
surface area and thus less contact pressure;
— h for M5 and M20 has been increased so that regular, high and thin nuts have an identical room for the
max
prevailing torque feature (h – m ) to accommodate the non-metallic insert; h has therefore been
max min min
increased in accordance with the specified tolerance (see Tables 1 and 2);
— specifications for marking and labelling have been added as Clause 6.

Fasteners — Prevailing torque hexagon nuts — Regular nuts
(with non-metallic insert)
1 Scope
This document specifies the characteristics of prevailing torque hexagon regular nuts (with non-metallic
insert), in steel and stainless steel, with metric coarse pitch thread M3 to M39, and with product grades A and B.
NOTE These nuts are designed with an overall height equal to m (as specified in ISO 898-2 and ISO 4032
min
for style 1) plus the prevailing torque feature. The height of the prevailing torque feature (h – m ) for the non-
max min
metallic insert is identical for regular, high and thin nuts for a given diameter.
Nuts with sizes D < M5 and design principles in accordance with style 1 are specified in Annex A.
If in certain cases other specifications are requested, property classes and stainless steel grades can be
selected from ISO 898-2 or ISO 3506-2.
