FASTENER - RECOMMENDED SHANK. HOLE AND HEAD-TO-SHANK FILLET RADIUS LIMITS FOR
o
C")

The scope of this standard deals ~ith shank diameters of fasteners and holes to be used with
such fasteners. It is the result of considerable study made by the NASC and offers advantages
to the producers and consumers of cyl1ndr1cal shaped items. It is aimed toward providing a
greater degree of standardization of
a. The fastener products
b. Interchangeable usage of similar products
c. The hole sizes and limits
d. The shank diameters. fillet radii and limits
e. The resultant fits
f. The tooling. gages, etc. to produce the products
g. The drills. reamers, etc. to produce the holes
h. The 1nterchange of design and manufacturing between companies
Although economic benefit can be achieved in this particular area. the standard does not cover
all possible requirements which may exist for cylindrical shaped parts and fits in other areas.
If applicable, however, its use is to be encouraged. The hole Slze and f1llet radius portion
of this standard should be especially considered "recommended pract1ce" as it is each company's
prerogative to determine a convenient change per10d for 1ncorporation of all the data or
portions thereof 1n their designs.

Notes:
(1) Limits are met after plating.
(2) The selection of Column A, 8 or C for an item should consider its potential end usage in holes
I
CD
recommended on Sheet 3. .
(3) For sizes .5000 and smaller, the maximum shank diameter for all classes is equal to aaximum major
diameter of thread minus .0005 and/or equal to minimum bore diameter.
For sizes .5625 and larger the aaximum shank diameter for all classes is equal to maximum aajor
-
..,!
~
diameter of threads minus .0010 and/or equal to mini_um bearing bore diameter ainus .0005.
The maximum limit is constant for all classes. The lower limit varies with class. 0
(4) In recognition of some companies' practice of accepting holes aade to .001 below noainal size C')
(Example: .250-.001) the end which enters the hole first (such as threads. grooves, etc.) shall be
dimensioned to provide clearance. Example for column A limits using threads: The maximum major
diameter of threads shall be .001 less than the minimum shank diameter. e
Consideration should also be given this point for interchangeable use of different items. Example:
::g
A threaded item may be used interchangeably with a grooved item providing the end portion can be !!!
inserted in the intended hole without interference. w

Notes: (1) The selection of Column A thru G is optional. In the case of fastener items, the selection should consider
the recommended shank diameters on Sheet 2.
(2) Some companies' internal manufacturing practice permits an .001 tolerance below the nominal hole size. This
feature and the holes to which it applies must be determined by the individual companies and incorporated in
appropriate instructions (salvage or otherwise) as generally it is not specified on the drawing.
Column A and B represents close limits of precision manufacturing.
These precision holes are recommended for items which when coupled with precision shank diameters will produce
a connection having a min1mum clearance. Minimum interference is also attainable with the use of these limits. u
w
For additional limits to produce interference, see columns F and G. Q

Column C. D and E represent general purpose limits of manufacturing.

These general purpose holes are recommended for items which when coupled with general purpose shank diameters
will produce a connection having clearance of varying degrees. z
o
Column F and G represent controlled limits of manufacturing. iii
:>
w
These controlled holes are recommended for items which when coupled with controlled limit shank diameters a:
will produce a connection having positive interference - Column F, or a combination of interference-c1earance-
Column G.

(2) The selection of Column J, L, R or T for an item should consider its ~
potential end usage in holes recommended on sheet 6.
@ (3) For sizes .2500 and larger, oversize shank limits are obtained by adding
e
.0156 and .0312 to the plated shank diameter limits in columns A and B ffi
in the table on sheet 2. For sizes .1640 and .1900, maximum plated ~
oversize shank diameters are equal to .1562 and .1875, respectively, ~
c.>
plus the appropriate oversize increment minus .0005 inch. Minimum 0
plated shank diameters are found by subtracting plated shank tolerances
shown in Columns A and B in the table on sheet 2. M
(4) In recognition of some companies' practice of accepting holes ez
.001 undersize, the end which enters the hole first (such as 0
threads, grooves, etc.) shall be dimensioned to provide clearance. iii
Consideration should also be given this point for interchangeable :>
w
use of different items such as a threaded item used interchangeably a:
with a grooved item provided the end portion can be inserted in the
intended hole without interference. <0

In the case of fastener items. the selection should consider the recommended shank z
diameters as shown on sheet 5. ..,
:>

(2) Some companies' internal manUfacturing practice permits an .001 tolerance below S!
the nominal hole size. This feature and the holes to which it applies must be
determined by the individual companies and incorporated in appropriate instructions
(salvage & otherwise) as generally it is not specified on the drawing.
@
(3) Columns J and R represent close limits of precision manUfacturing and are 18
recommended for items which when coupling with close limit shank diameters will 5!!
produce a connection having minimum clearance. ~

for items which when coupled with general purpose shank diameters will produce a
connection having positive clearance. C;

connection having a combination of interference-clearance (columns Land T) or positive 0
