NATIONAL FOREWORD
This Indian Standard ( First Revision ) which is identical with ISO 898-6 : 1994 'Mechanical properties
of fasteners — Part 6 : Nuts with specified proof load values — Fine pitch thread' issued by the
International Organization for Standardization (ISO) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards
on the recommendation of the Bolts, Nuts and Fasteners Accessories Sectional Committee and approval
of the Basic and Production Engineering Division Council.
This standard was originally published in 1991 by adopting ISO 898-6 : 1988. This first revision has
been taken up consequent upon the revision of ISO 898-6 : 1988, to keep it in line with the latest
version.
In the adopted standard, certain terminology and conventions are not identical to those used in Indian
Standards. Attention is drawn especially to the following:
a) Wherever the words 'International Standard' appear referring to this standard, they should be
read as 'Indian Standard'.
b) Comma (,) has been used as decimal marker while in Indian Standards the current practice is to
use a full point (.) as the decimal marker.
In the adopted standard, reference appears to certain International Standards for which Indian Standards
also exist. The corresponding Indian Standards which are to be substituted in their place are listed
below along with their degree of equivalence for the editions indicated:

( First Revision )
1 Scope
This part of ISO 898 specifies the mechanical proper-
ties of nuts with specified proof load values when
tested at an ambient temperature range of -i- 10 °Cto
-I- 35 "C. Mechanical and physical properties will vary
with respect to temperature and property class.
Products conforming to the requirements of this part
of ISO 898 are evaluated only at the ambient tem-
perature range and may not retain the specified
physical properties at higher and lower temperatures.
At temperatures higher or lower than the ambient
temperature range, a significant change in properties
may occur. When fasteners are to be used above or
below the ambient temperature range, it is the re-
sponsibility of the user to ensure that the mechanical
and physical properties are suitable for his particular
service conditions.
This part of ISO 898 applies to nuts
— with nominal thread diameters, d, from 8 mm up
to and including 39 mm (fine pitch thread);
— of triangular ISO thread and with diameters and
pitches in accordance with ISO 68 and ISO 262
(fine pitch thread);
~ with diameter/pitch combinations in accordance
with ISO 261 (fine pitch thread);
— with thread tolerances 6H in accordance with
ISO 965-1 and 965-2 (see note 2);
— with specific mechanical requirements;
— with widths across flats as specified in ISO 272;
— with nominal heights greater than or equal to
— made of carbon steel or alloy steel (see note 1).
It does not apply to nuts requiring special properties
such as
— weldability;
— prevailing torque performance (see ISO 2320);
— corrosion resistance (see ISO 3506);
— ability to withstand temperatures above -i- 300 X
or below - 50 "C. (However, see note 1 .)
NOTES
1 Nuts made from free-cutting steel should not be used
above + 250 "C.
2 With thread tolerances other or larger than 6H, a de-
crease in the stripping strength should be considered (see
table 1).
In 150898:1988, the symbol D was used.

3 Designation system
3.1 Nuts with nominal heights ^0,8d
(effective-lengths of thread ^ 0,6rf): Nuts of
style 1 and style 2
Nuts with nominal heights ^0,Bd (effective lengths
of thread >0,6d) are designated by a number to indi-
cate the maximum appropriate property class of bolts
with which they may be mated.
Failure of threaded fasteners due to over-tightening
can occur by bolt shank fracture or by stripping of the
threads of the nut and/or bolt. Shank fracture is sud-
den and therefore easily noticed. Stripping is gradual
and therefore difficult to detect and this introduces
the danger of partly failed fasteners being left in as-
semblies.
It would therefore be desirable to design threaded
connections so that their mode of failure would al-
ways be by shank fracture but, unfortunately, because
of the many variables which govern stripping strength
(nut and bolt material strengths, thread clearances,
across-flats dimensions, etc.), nuts would have to be
excessively thick to guarantee this mode in all cases,
A bolt or screw of thread diameter 8 mm to 39 mm
assembled with a nut of the appropriate property
class, in accordance with table2, is intended to pro-
vide an assembly capable of being tightened to the
bolt proof load without thread stripping occurring.

NOTE ~ In generai, nuts of a higher property class can replace nuts of a lower property class. This is advisable for a
bolt/nut assembly going into a stress higher than the yield stress or the stress under proof load of the bolt.
However, should tightening beyond bolt proof load
take place, the nut design is intended to ensure at
least 10 % of the over-tightened assemblies fail
through bolt breakage in order to warn the user that
the installation practice is not appropriate.
NOTE 3 For more detailed information on the strength
of screw thread assemblies and for the styles of nuts, see
150898-2:1992, annex A.
3.2 Nuts with nominal heights ^O.S^f and
<0,8d (effective heights of thread ^0,Ad and
<0,6d)
Nuts with nominal heights ^0,5<i and <0,8d (effec-
tive height of thread >0,4J and <0,6cO are desig-
nated by a combination of two numbers: the second
indicates the nominal stress under proof load on a
hardened test mandrel, while the first indicates that
the loadability of a bolt-nut assembly is reduced in
comparison with the loadability on a hardened test
mandrel and also in comparison with a bolt-nut as-
sembly described in 3.1. The effective loading ca-
pacity is not only determined by the hardness of the
nut and the effective height of thread but also by the
tensile strength of the bolt with which the nut is as-
sembled. Tables gives the designation system and
the stresses under proof load of the nuts. Proof loads
are shown in tableS. A guide for minimum expected
stripping strengths of the joints when these nuts are
assembled with bolts of various property classes is
shown in table?.

from free-cutting steel unless otherwise agreed be-
tween the purchaser and the manufacturer. In such
cases, the following maximum sulfur, phosphorus and
lead contents are permissible:
sulfur 0,34 %; phosphorus 0,11%; lead 0,35%
2) Alloying elements may be added, if necessary, to
develop the mechanical properties of the nuts.

The values of failure loads given for guidance in
table 7 apply to different bolt classes. Bolt stripping is
the expected failure mode for lower strength bolts,
while nut stripping can be expected for bolts of higher
property classes.

8 Test methods
8.1 Proof load test
The proof load test shall be used wherever the ca-
pacity of available testing equipment permits, and
shall be the referee method.
The nut shall be assembled on a hardened and
threaded test mandrel as shown in figures 1 and 2.
For referee purposes, the axial tensile test is decisive.
The proof load shall be applied against the nut in an
axial direction, and shall be held for 15 s. The nut shall
resist the load without failure by stripping or rupture,
and shall be removable by the fingers after the load
is released. If the thread of the mandrel is damaged
during the test, the test should be discarded. It may
be necessary to use a manual wrench to start the nut
in motion. Such wrenching is permissible provided
that it is restricted to one half turn and that the nut is
then removable by the fingers.
The hardness of the test mandrel shall be 45 HRC
minimum.
Mandrels used shall be threaded to tolerance class
5h6g except that the tolerance of the major diameter
shall be the last quarter of the 6g range on the mini-
mum material side.

ISO 698-6 : 1994
8.2 Hardness test
For routine inspection, hardness tests shall be carried
out on one bearing surface of the nut and the hard-
ness shall be taken as the mean of three values
spaced 120° apart. In case of dispute, the hardness
tests shall be carried out on a longitudinal section
through the nut axis and with impressions placed as
close as possible to the nominal major diameter of the
nut thread.
The Vickers hardness test is the referee test, and
where practicable a load of HV 30 shall be applied.
IfBrinell or Rockwell hardness tests are applied, the
conversion tables in accordance with ISO 4964 shall
be used.
The Vickers hardness test shall be carried out in ac-
cordance with the requirements of ISO 6507-1.
The Brinel! hardness test shall be carried out in ac-
cordance with the requirements of ISO 6506.
The Rockwell hardness test shall be carried out in
accordance with the requirements of ISO 6508.
