FOREWORD

This Indian Standard ( Part 3 ) ( Fourth Revision ) which is identical with ISO 4034:1999
Hexagon
nuts Product grade C 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.
IS 1363 was originally published in 1960 and first revised in 1967. .Subsequent to the publication of
1967 edition, many changes had been agreed upon at international
level which have been reflected
in IS 1367 series of standards covering Technical supply conditions for threaded steel fasteners.
Accordingly,
the second
revision
was published
in 1984 splitting
the standard
into 3 parts
covering hexagon head bolts, hexagon head screws and hexagon nuts. The third revision of this
standard was published in 1992 by adoption of ISO 4034:1988.
This fourth revision has been prepared
by adoption of latest edition of ISO 4034 published in 1999. The remaining parts of the standard, that
is, Part 1 and Part 2 have also been revised by adopting the corresponding
latest editions of
ISO Standards published in 1999.
In 1967 version of this standard, the widths across flat dimensions for M1O and M12 size fasteners
were specified as 17 mm and 19 mm respectively.
However, in the 1984 version these widths across
flat dimensions were brought in line with ISO 4034:1979
and specified as 16 mm and 18 mm respectively
for Ml O and Ml 2 size fasteners.
Recognizing the difficulty of immediate changeover
to new width
across flat dimensions,
the Committee decided to permit width across flat dimensions
as per 1967
version, that is, 17 mm and 19 mm for Ml O and M12 size fasteners till 31 December 1994. Now it is
expected that the entire fastener industry would have switched over to new width across flat dimensions
and from 1 January 1995, no old width across flat dimensions shall be permitted.
,.,
The text of ISO Standard has been approved as suitable for publication
as Indian Standard without
deviations. Certain terminology
and conventions are, however, not identical to those used in Indian
Standards. Attention is drawn especially to the following:
a)

Wherever the words International

read as Indian Standard.

b)

Comma ( , ) has been used as a decimal marker while in Indian Standards,

is to use a point ( . ) as the decimal marker.

Scope

This International Standard specifies the characteristics

and product grade C.

of hexagon nuts with threads from M5 up to and including M64

If, in special cases, specifications other than those listed in this International Standard are required, they should be
selected from existing International Standards, for example 1.S0724, ISO 898-2, ISO 965-1 and ISO 4759-1.
