ISO 898-1 Grades

Mechanical properties of fasteners made of carbon steel and alloy steel 10.9

The Grade 10.9 Bolts, screws, and studs with specified property classes — coarse thread and fine pitch thread

The ISO 898-1:2013 Grade 10.9 specification covers carbon steel bolts and studs ranging from M-6 to M-64 diameter. We use high carbon steel material and high alloy steel raw materials to achieve the required properties of grade 10.9. There are three popular grades in this standard, 8.8, 10.9 and 12.9 which denote material hardness strength and their respective mechanical properties.
