1 Scope
This standard specifies a selection of tolerances for bolts, screws, studs and nuts with product grades A, B and C and for tapping screws with product grade A.
Note: The product grades refer to the size of the tolerances where grade A is the most precise and grade C is the least precise.
The tolerances, except tolerances for threads, are selected from GB/T 1800.2 and GB/T 1800.4. The tolerances for metric threads are taken from GB/T 2516. The tolerances for tapping screw threads are covered in GB/T 5280.
The tolerances of form and position shall be specified and indicated in accordance with GB/T 1182, GB/T 4249 and GB/T 16671.
The tolerances specified in this standard apply to fasteners prior to coating unless otherwise specified. See also GB/T 5267.1.
In cases where there is a difference between the tolerance requirements in this standard and the product standard, the product standard shall take precedence
It is recommended that these tolerances also be used for non-standard fasteners.
Dimensions and tolerances given in this standard are in millimetres.
