Fastener Grades

Define the required metric property class or ASTM product grade in the context of the applicable standard.

Keep the grade systems distinct

Property classes such as 8.8, 10.9 and 12.9 apply within specific metric fastener requirements. ASTM grades such as A325 and A490 belong to structural product requirements under F3125. They are not automatic substitutes.

Include assembly requirements

Name the bolt, nut and washer standards, finish, dimensional requirements and tests. Project-specific requirements take precedence over general comparisons.

Official reference: ISO 898-1. Confirm the required edition and product scope.
