Surface hardness – (g)
a For bolts of property class 8.8 in diameters d < 16 mm, there is an increased risk of nut stripping in the case of inadvertent over-tightening inducing a load in excess of proof load.
b Applies only to nominal thread diameters d < 16 mm.
c For structural bolting the limit is 12 mm.
d Minimum tensile properties apply to products of nominal length l > 2,5 d. Minimum hardness applies to products of length l , 2,5 d and other products which cannot be tensile tested (e.g.
e When testing full-size bolts, screws and studs, the tensile loads, which are to be applied for the calculation of Rm, shall meet the values given in tables 6 and 8.
f A hardness reading taken at the end of bolts, screws and studs shall be 250 HV, 238 HB or 99,5 HRB maximum.
g Surface hardness shall not be more than 30 Vickers points above the measured core hardness on the product when readings of both surface and core are carried out at HV 0,3. For
h In cases where the lower yield stress ReL cannot be determined, it is permissible to measure the stress at 0,2 % non-proportional elongation Rp0,2. For the property classes 4.8, 5.8 and
i The yield stress ratio according to the designation of the property class and the minimum stress at 0,2 % non-proportional elongation Rp0,2 apply to machined test specimens
