Mechanical properties of fasteners made of carbon steel and alloy steel - Part 1: Bolts, screws and studs with specified property classes - Coarse thread and fine pitch thread (ISO 898-1:2009)

This part of ISO 898 specifies mechanical and physical properties of bolts, screws and studs made of carbon steel and alloy steel when tested at an ambient temperature range of 10 °C to 35 °C. Fasteners - the term used when bolts, screws and studs are considered all together - that conform to the requirements of this part of ISO 898 are evaluated at that ambient temperature range. They might not retain the specified mechanical and physical properties at elevated temperatures (see Annex B) and/or lower temperatures.

Mechanische Eigenschaften von Verbindungselementen aus Kohlenstoffstahl und legiertem Stahl - Teil 1: Schrauben mit festgelegten Festigkeitsklassen - Regelgewinde und Feingewinde (ISO 898-1:2009)

Dieser Teil von ISO 898 legt mechanische und physikalische Eigenschaften von Schrauben aus Kohlenstoffstahl und legiertem Stahl fest, die in einem Bereich der Umgebungstemperatur von 10 °C und 35 °C geprüft werden.
Schrauben, die den Anforderungen dieser Norm entsprechen, werden in diesem Bereich der Umgebungstemperatur bewertet. Es kann sein, dass sie die festgelegten mechanischen und physikalischen Eigenschaften bei höheren Temperaturen (siehe Angaben in Anhang B) und/oder niedrigeren Temperaturen nicht beibehalten.
ANMERKUNG 1   Schrauben, die den Anforderungen dieser Norm entsprechen, wurden für Anwendungen in dem Bereich zwischen -50°C und +150 °C erfolgreich eingesetzt. Anwender sollten für Temperaturen außerhalb des Bereiches von -50°C und +150 °C einen erfahrenen Metallurgen für Verbindungselemente konsultieren, um die geeignete Wahl für die vorgesehene Anwendung zu treffen.
ANMKERKUNG 2   Informationen zur Auswahl und Anwendung von Stählen für den Gebrauch bei niedrigeren Temperaturen sind z. B. in der EN 10269 und in ASTM A320 enthalten.
Bestimmte Schrauben erfüllen möglicherweise nicht die in dieser Norm festgelegten Anforderungen an die Zug- oder Torsionsfestigkeit, weil wegen der Kopfgeometrie die Scherfläche im Kopf gegenüber dem Spannungsquerschnitt im Gewinde verkleinert ist, z. B. Senkköpfe, Linsensenkköpfe und niedrige Zylinderköpfe (siehe 7.2)
Dieser Teil von ISO 898 gilt für Schrauben:
-   aus Kohlenstoffstahl und legiertem Stahl;
-   mit metrischem ISO Gewinde nach ISO 68-1;
-   mit Regelgewinde M1,6 bis M39 und Feingewinde M8×1 bis M39×3;
-   mit Durchmesser-Steigungs-Kombinationen nach ISO 261 und ISO 262;
-   mit Gewindetoleranz nach ISO 965-1, ISO 965-2 und ISO 965-4.
Er gilt nicht für Gewindestifte und ähnliche Verbindungselemente mit Gewinde, die nicht auf Zug beansprucht werden (siehe ISO 898-5).
Er legt keine Anforderungen für Eigenschaften fest wie
-   Schweißbarkeit,
-   Korrosionsbeständigkeit,
-   Scherfestigkeit oder
-   Dauerfestigkeit.

Caractéristiques mécaniques des éléments de fixation en acier au carbone et en acier allié - Partie 1: Vis, goujons et tiges filetées de classes de qualité spécifiées - Filetages à pas gros et filetages à pas fin (ISO 898-1:2009)

L'ISO 898-1:2009 spécifie les caractéristiques mécaniques et physiques des vis, goujons et tiges filetées en acier au carbone et en acier allié, essayés dans la plage de température ambiante de 10 °C à 35 °C. Les éléments de fixation — terme utilisé lorsque les vis, goujons et tiges filetées sont considérés dans leur ensemble — conformes aux exigences de la présente partie de l'ISO 898 sont évalués uniquement dans cette plage de températures ambiantes. Des informations sont données pour les éléments de fixation qui ne conservent pas les caractéristiques mécaniques et physiques spécifiées à des températures élevées et/ou inférieures.
Certains éléments de fixation peuvent ne pas satisfaire aux exigences de l'ISO 898-1:2009 concernant la résistance à la traction ou à la torsion, en raison de la géométrie de la tête (section cisaillée dans la tête inférieure à la section résistante dans le filetage). Ceux-ci comprennent les éléments de fixation à tête réduite, avec ou sans entraînement externe, à tête bombée plate et cylindrique basse avec entraînement interne ou à tête fraisée avec entraînement interne.
La présente partie de l'ISO 898 s'applique aux vis, goujons et tiges filetées en acier au carbone ou en acier allié, à filetage métrique ISO triangulaire conforme à l'ISO 68‑1, de filetage M1,6 à M39 (pour les pas gros) et de filetage M8 x 1 à M39 x 3 (pour les pas fins), de combinaisons diamètre/pas conformes à l'ISO 261 et à l'ISO 262, de tolérance de filetage conforme à l'ISO 965‑1, ISO 965‑2 et ISO 965‑4.
Elle ne s'applique pas aux vis sans tête et éléments de fixation filetés similaires non soumis à des contraintes de traction (voir l'ISO 898‑5).
Elle ne spécifie aucune exigence pour des caractéristiques telles que la soudabilité, la résistance à la corrosion, la résistance au cisaillement, la performance couple/tension, ou la résistance à la fatigue.

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.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 898-1 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 2, Fasteners, Subcommittee SC 1, Mechanical
properties of fasteners.
This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition (ISO 898-1:1999), which has been technically revised.
ISO 898 consists of the following parts, under the general title Mechanical properties of fasteners made of
carbon steel and alloy steel:
⎯ Part 1: Bolts, screws and studs with specified property classes — Coarse thread and fine pitch thread
⎯ Part 2: Nuts with specified proof load values — Coarse thread
⎯ Part 5: Set screws and similar threaded fasteners not under tensile stresses
⎯ Part 6: Nuts with specified proof load values — Fine pitch thread
⎯ Part 7: Torsional test and minimum torques for bolts and screws with nominal diameters 1 mm to 10 mm

SIST EN ISO 898-1:2009
INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 898-1:2009(E)

Mechanical properties of fasteners made of carbon steel and
alloy steel —
Part 1:
Bolts, screws and studs with specified property classes —
Coarse thread and fine pitch thread
1 Scope
This part of ISO 898 specifies mechanical and physical properties of bolts, screws and studs made of carbon
steel and alloy steel when tested at an ambient temperature range of 10 °C to 35 °C. Fasteners — the term
used when bolts, screws and studs are considered all together — that conform to the requirements of this part
of ISO 898 are evaluated at that ambient temperature range. They might not retain the specified mechanical
and physical properties at elevated temperatures (see Annex B) and/or lower temperatures.
NOTE 1 Fasteners conforming to the requirements of this part of ISO 898 are used in applications ranging from −50 °C
to +150 °C. Users are advised to consult an experienced fastener metallurgist for temperatures outside the range of
−50 °C to +150 °C and up to a maximum temperature of +300 °C when determining appropriate choices for a given
application.
NOTE 2 Information for the selection and application of steels for use at lower and elevated temperatures is given, for
example, in EN 10269, ASTM F2281 and in ASTM A 320/A 320M.
Certain fasteners might not fulfil the tensile or torsional requirements of this part of ISO 898-1 because the
geometry of their heads reduces the shear area in the head compared to the stress area in the thread. These
include fasteners having a low head, with or without external driving feature, a low round or cylindrical head
with internal driving feature or a countersunk head with internal driving feature (see 8.2).
This part of ISO 898 is applicable to bolts, screws and studs
a) made of carbon steel or alloy steel,
b) having triangular ISO metric screw thread according to ISO 68-1,
c) with coarse pitch thread M1,6 to M39, and fine pitch thread M8×1 to M39×3,
d) with diameter/pitch combinations according to ISO 261 and ISO 262,
e) having thread tolerances according to ISO 965-1, ISO 965-2 and ISO 965-4.
It is not applicable to set screws and similar threaded fasteners not under tensile stresses (see ISO 898-5).
It does not specify requirements for such properties as
⎯ weldability,
⎯ corrosion resistance,
⎯ resistance to shear stress,
⎯ torque/clamp force performance, or
⎯ fatigue resistance.

The multiplication of the nominal tensile strength and the yield strength ratio gives the nominal yield strength
in megapascals (MPa). Information on the relationship between the nominal tensile strength and elongation
after fracture for each property class is given in Annex A.
Marking and labelling of bolts, screws and studs with property classes shall be as specified in 10.3. For
fasteners with reduced loadability, specific marking symbols are specified in 10.4.
The designation system of this part of ISO 898 may be applied for sizes outside the scope of this part of
ISO 898 (e.g. d > 39 mm), provided all applicable requirements in accordance with Tables 2 and 3 are met.
6 Materials
Table 2 specifies limits for the chemical composition of steels and minimum tempering temperatures for the
different property classes of bolts, screws and studs. The chemical composition shall be assessed in
accordance with the relevant International Standards.
NOTE National regulations for the restriction or prohibition of certain chemical elements will also have to be taken
into account in the countries or regions concerned.
For fasteners that are to be hot dip galvanized, the additional material requirements given in ISO 10684 apply.
