Écrous autofreinés en acier - Caractéristiques mécaniques et performances (ISO 2320:2008)

L'ISO 2320:2008 spécifie les caractéristiques mécaniques et les performances des écrous autofreinés en acier, essayés dans une plage de températures ambiantes comprises entre +10 °C et +35 °C. Elle présente un seul essai destiné à déterminer les caractéristiques d'autofreinage (caractéristiques fonctionnelles) et/ou les caractéristiques couple/tension.
L'ISO 2320:2008 s'applique aux écrous autofreinés tout métal et aux écrous autofreinés à anneau non métallique: a) à filetage triangulaire ISO conforme à l'ISO 68‑1; b) de combinaison diamètre/pas conforme à ISO 261 et à l'ISO 262; c) à filetage à pas gros M3 à M39 et avec des caractéristiques mécaniques conformes à l'ISO 898-2; d) à filetage à pas fin M8´1 à M39´3 et avec des caractéristiques mécaniques conformes à l'ISO 898-6; e) utilisés dans la plage de températures allant de -50 °C à +150 °C, pour les écrous autofreinés tout métal; f) utilisés dans la plage de températures allant de -50 °C à +120 °C, pour les écrous autofreinés à anneau non métallique.
L'ISO 2320:2008 ne s'applique pas: 1) aux écrous autofreinés tout métal lorsque les températures se situent en dehors de la plage allant de -50 °C à +150 °C; il convient dans ce cas que les utilisateurs consultent un métallurgiste expérimenté, spécialiste des éléments de fixation, afin de déterminer les choix appropriés pour une application donnée; 2) aux écrous autofreinés à anneau non métallique, lorsque l'utilisation aux limites de température de -50 °C à +120 °C, ou à des températures proches, peut réduire la capacité d'autofreinage et nécessiter l'emploi d'un matériau non métallique adéquat. Pour les écrous autofreinés à anneau non métallique, si les températures se situent en dehors de la plage allant de -50 °C à +120 °C, il convient que les utilisateurs consultent un spécialiste expérimenté dans les matériaux des éléments de fixation, afin de déterminer les choix appropriés pour une application donnée.

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 2320 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 2320:1997), which has been technically revised.
It also incorporates the Technical Corrigendum ISO 2320:1997/Cor.1:2006.

5 Thread
Threads for prevailing torque type nuts shall be in accordance with ISO 965-2 except for the prevailing torque
feature:
a) for prevailing torque non-metallic insert type nuts, the GO gauge shall be suitable for free installation (by
hand) until it is seated against the prevailing torque feature;
b) for prevailing torque all metal type nuts, the GO gauge shall be suitable for free installation (by hand) to

6 Lubrication
At the option of the manufacturer a lubricant may be applied to the manufacturing lot to fulfil the performance
requirements.
7 Mechanical properties of prevailing torque type nuts
The mechanical properties of prevailing torque type nuts shall conform to ISO 898-2 or ISO 898-6.
With regard to proof load, the test method specified in 9.2 shall apply.
For prevailing torque all metal type nuts, users should consult an experienced fastener materials expert for
temperatures outside the range of −50 °C to +150 °C to determine appropriate choices for a given application.
For prevailing torque non-metallic insert type nuts, use at or near the temperature limits of −50 °C and
+120 °C may reduce the prevailing torque capability and may require the use of an adequate non-metallic
material. Users should consult an experienced fastener materials expert for temperatures outside the range of
−50 °C to +120 °C to determine appropriate choices for a given application.
8 Performance requirements for prevailing torque properties
The prevailing-on torque shall not exceed the value specified for the applicable nut in Tables 1 to 8.
The prevailing-off torque shall exceed the value specified for the applicable nut in Tables 1 to 8.
For delivery inspection, the 1st installation/removal test applies, unless otherwise agreed.
For initial type testing and in case of dispute, a 5th removal test shall also be applied unless otherwise agreed.
Prevailing torque performance decreases as a function of the number of reuses; the consumer should take
into consideration the consequences of the decreased performance before any reuse of the nut.
By request of the customer, a temperature resistance test for prevailing torque non-metallic insert type nuts as
given in Annex A may be carried out.
Paragraphs 3 and 4 of Clause 7 also apply to performance requirements.

NOTE The evaluation of results from the prevailing torque test by statistical process control methods (SPC) has no statistical relevance.
a
The clamp force for property class 04 nuts is equal to 80 % of the proof load of property class 04 nuts for 3 mm u d u 39 mm. Proof loads for nuts

are given in ISO 898-2 and ISO 898-6.
b
See Annex B.
c
The value of the upper limit of the clamp force is equal to 75 % of the proof load, see Annex B.
d
The value of the lower limit of the clamp force is equal to 65 % of the proof load, see Annex B.
e
The prevailing torques for first assembly apply for all metal type nuts only. For prevailing torque non-metallic insert type nuts, the maximum torques
shall be 50 % of the values.
f
Values in this table are required for testing performed under laboratory acceptance test conditions. Utilization of this type of fastener is application
dependent and performance for parts may vary in normal use. It is recommended that additional testing of complete joints, using production components,
be performed when there are questions of product performance.

a
The clamp force for property class 05 nuts is equal to 80 % of the proof load of property class 05 nuts for 3 mm u d u 39 mm. Proof loads for nuts

are given in ISO 898-2 and ISO 898-6.

See Annex B.
c
The value of the upper limit of the clamp force is equal to 75 % of the proof load, see Annex B.
d
The value of the lower limit of the clamp force is equal to 65 % of the proof load, see Annex B.
e
The prevailing torques for first assembly apply for all metal type nuts only. For prevailing torque non-metallic insert type nuts, the maximum torques
shall be 50 % of the values.
f
Values in this table are required for testing performed under laboratory acceptance test conditions. Utilization of this type of fastener is application
dependent and performance for parts may vary in normal use. It is recommended that additional testing of complete joints, using production components,
be performed when there are questions of product performance.
