ISO 10684 Specification

Limits of sizes for hot dip galvanized internal and external screw thread M8

General

For thread size M8 this annex gives information on screw thread limits for.
a) internal screw threads tapped oversize to tolerance class 6AZ and 6AX; b) external screw threads undersize threaded to tolerance class 6az.

Limits of sizes - Internal screw thread M8

The internal screw thread limits for M8 for tolerance class 6AZ and 6AX are specified in Table .
Tolerance quality: medium
Thread engagement group: normal
Tolerance classes: 6AZ and 6AX

a) Dimensions apply to internal screw threads after galvanizing and tapping oversize.
b) Dimensions apply to internal screw threads before galvanizing or after galvanizing and removal of zinc fragments.
c) Refers to the imaginary co-axial cylinder through the points where the requirement with regard to straightness of flank ceases.

Limits of sizes - External screw thread M8

The external screw thread limits for MB for tolerance class 6az are specified in Table B.2.
Tolerance quality: medium
Thread engagement group: normal
Tolerance class: 6az
The actual root contour shall not at any point transgress the basic profile.
For hot-dip galvanized screw threads, the tolerances apply to the parts before galvanizing. After galvanizing, the actual thread profile shall not in any point transgress the maximum material limits for tolerance position h and is intended to mate with internal screw threads of tolerance position H or G only.
