Machine Tool T-Slots & Bolts Guide

This document presents international standards for T-slots and corresponding bolts used on machine tool tables. It specifies metric dimensions for slots of various widths from 5 to 54 mm. For each slot width, it provides dimensional tolerances and specifies the corresponding metric bolt size with dimensions for diameter, length, and tolerances. The standards are intended to promote practical interchangeability of parts between machines.

Foreword
IS0 (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of
national standards bodies (IS0 member bodies). The work of preparing International
Standards is normally carried out through IS0 technical committees. Each member
body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has
the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, govern-
mental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.

Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to


the member bodies for approval before their acceptance as International Standards by
the IS0 Council. They are approved in accordance with IS0 procedures requiring at
least 75 % approval by the member bodies voting.
