This British Standard has been prepared under the direction of the Engineering
Sector Board and is the English language version of EN ISO 2010:1994
Countersunk slotted raised head screws (common head style) Product grade A,
published by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN). It is identical
with ISO 2010:1994, published by the International Organization for
Standardization (ISO). EN ISO 2010:1994 was produced as a result of
international discussions in which the United Kingdom took an active part.
A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a
contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application.
Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity
from legal obligations.

Summary of pages
This document comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pages i and ii,
the EN ISO title page, pages 2 to 8, an inside back cover and a back cover.
This standard has been updated (see copyright date) and may have had
amendments incorporated. This will be indicated in the amendment table on the
inside front cover.
