Subcommittee 2 was subse- quently established and charged with the responsibilty for technical content of standards cov- ering wrench head bolts and nuts. Subcommittee 2, after appraisal ofthe requirements of industry, developed a proposed stan- ‘dard series of bolt head and nut dimensions. This proposal was finally approved and designated a Tentative American Standard in February 1927. ‘A first revision of the document was designated as an American Standard in March 1933, and was followed by a second revision which was granted approval as an American Standard in January (941, Following reorganization of the B18 Committee in 1947, Subcommittee 2 was asked to ex- ppand the standard on head proportions into a complete product standard. A proposal covering square and hexagon head bolts, and nuts, hexagon head cap screws, and automotive hexagon head bolts was prepared and submitted to the B18 Committee in April 1950, While this draft ‘was under consideration, the B18 Committee received a proposal from the British Standards Institution for unification of dimensions on products incorporating Unified screw threads. The Committee welcomed the opportunity of discussing the proposals and an American-British- Canadian Conference was held in New York, June 1-2, 1950. It was agreed in the Conference that the essentials of unification could be accomplished by selection of mutually satisfactory across-the-flats dimensions, since this would permit the use of the same wrenches and because other features would rarely affect interchangeability. After due consideration, sukable existing across-the-lats dimensions were selected for the hexagon products affected. In its meeting of October 13, 1950, Subcommittee 2 agreed to incorporate in the proposed standard the conference recommendations on ' in. hexagon head bolts, ‘sin, hexagon head cap screws and automotive hexagon head bolts, ie and % in. regular hexagon and square nuts, andl ‘hei, light and regular hexagon and square nuts. Ata subsequent meeting of Subcommittee 2, further chaages were adopted in order to combine the light and regular serics of muts and to combine the automotive hexagon head boit, hexagon head cap screw, and regular hexagon head close tolerance bol. In view of the progress made in the United States and the urgency of standardization for mu- tual defense, the British Standards Institution sponsored a second Conference in London in April 1951, to complete the unification of certain hexagon bolts and nuts. ‘At a meeting on June 8, 1951, Subcommittee 2 reeffirmed its acceptance of the unified di- ‘mensions, which corresponded with those in the March 1951 draft, but atempted to select bet-ter nomenclature forthe unified products. final daft incorporating the nomenclature Finished Hexagon Bolts and Nuts and containing numerous editerial changes was submitted for letter ballot in September 1951. Following approval by the B18 Commitee and the sponsors, the pro- posal was presented to the American Standards Association for approval and designation as an ‘American Standard. This was granted on March 24, 1952. Recognizing the standard was in need of additional refinements, Subcommittee 2 began im- ‘mediately to revise it removing inconsistencies with respect to fillets, improving the length tol- frances on heavy hexagon bolts, and incorporating rumerous other corrections and clarifica- tions. The most noteworthy editorial change was a decision to combine the coverage for hexagon ‘cap screws and square head set screws from the B18.2 standard with the coverage for sleted head cap screws and slotted headless set screws from the B18.6 standard and publish them in a separate document. The requirements for the unified hexagon cap screws and finished hexa- gon bolts being identical in the overlapping sizes, this data would now be available in two pub- lications. Following approvals by the B18 Commitiee and sponsor organizations, the proposal was submitted to the American Standards Association and declared an American Standard on February 2, 1955. ‘A revision ofthis document comprised of numerous editorial corrections and inclusion of an appendix for grade markings was duly approved and designated an American Standard on April 18, 1960. ‘At a meeting in February 1960, Subcommittee 2 approved a recommendation to reduce the head heights for heavy, heavy semi-finished, and heavy finished hexagon bolts which was sub- sequently approved by letter ballot of the B18 Committee on August 16, 1960. A proposed stan- dard for heavy hexagon structural bolts submitted and secepted by Subcommitiee? a its October 17, 1960 meeting was approved by leter ballot of the B18 Committee on May 9, 1961, To meet the urgent needs of the steel construction industry, it was considered necessary to publish the standard for the structural bolts immediately, Consequently, Appendix IV to ASA B18.2-1960 containing coverage for the revised heavy hexagon bolts and the new heavy hexagon structural bolts was released in 1962. In October of 1961, Subcommittee 2 appointed a subgroup to review all product standards for square and hexagon bolts, screws, and nuts, and to recommend simplifications which would be compatible with technical, production, and distribution advances that had occurred over the prior several years. The subgroup presented its recommendations at a meeting of Subcommittee 2 im October of 1962, It was agreed that the internally and externally threaded products should 'be published in separate documents as suggested, and draft proposals for each were completed, ‘The proposed revision for square and hex bolts and screws incorporated the following sub- _10up recommendations: consolidation of hexagon head cap screws and finished hexagon bolts into a single product; consolidation of heavy semifinished hexagon bolts and heavy finished hexagon bolts into 2 single product; elimination of regular semifinished hexagon bolts, a new length tolerancing pattern for all bolts and screws; documentation of a positive identification procedure for determining whether an extomally threaded product should properly be desig- nated a bolt or a screw; and an abbreviated and purified set of product nomenclature reflecting application of the idemtification procedure. Letter ballot of this proposal o the B18 Committee in March, 1964 resulted in several comments which were resolved to the satisfaction of the ‘Committee in June of 1964. Following acceptance by the sponsor organizations, the revision was submitted to the American Standards Association and was designated American Standard ASA BI8.2.1 on September 8, 1955. ‘Subcommittee 2 continued to further develop refinements initiated by the simplification sub- troup and revisions reflecting changes in manufacturing practices and consumer requirements. This work culminated in Subcommittee acceptance of a 1970 proposal incorporating, in addi- tion to numerous editorial changes, revisions inthe following significant areas: addition of cov- crage for askew head bolts and hex head lag screws; addition of straightness requirements to applicable products; addition of minimum fillet to square and hex bolts and lag screws: appli-cation of UNR threads and new concepts for controlling thread length on products having Unified threads: and clarification of grade markings, thread runout gages and formulas for dimensions. Also included were refinements to hex cap screw and heavy hex screw requirements consist- ing of addition of wrenching height and revision of undethead fillets, washer face thicknesses and controls on angulanty of bearing face. The proposed revision, after approval by letter bal- Jot of the B18 Commitee in March, 1970 was subsequently approved by the sponsors and sub- mitted to the American National Standards Institute for designation as an American National Standard. This was granted on January 18, 1972. [Numerous user complaints on interference of the elliptical fillet addled in the 1972 revision resulted in appointment of a subcommittee to study the problem, They recommended reverting, back fo the max./min. radius fillet specified in the 1965 version with the elliptical filet retained. for use when specified by the user. Further refinements in the definition of the fillet for short length screws were added to Hex Cap and Heavy Hex Screws, Geometric tolerancing was up- dated to conform to American National Standard Y14.5, Dimensioning and Tolerancing. The ‘ransition length of the hex cap screw was changed to equal 5 coarse (UNC) threads. Few, if any, users accepted the 1972 values that were designed 10 reduce tooling by providing the same body length for adjacent lengths. On screws. separate straightness requirements have been deleted and the combination thread runout and straightness gage described in Appendix T is specified. Straightness as a variable based on length has been applied to bolts with gaging de- scribed in Appendix Il. Acceptability of screw threads based on gaging systems established by ‘American National Standard B1.3-1979 has been added to each type of screw or bolt, except lag serews. This proposal was approved by letter ballot ofthe Subcommittee and B18 in January, 1980, Following acceptance by the secretariat organizations the revision was referred t0 the American National Standards Instiute and granted recognition as an American National Standard ‘on June 24, 1981 In 1991 it was recognized that B18.2.1 required extensive revision to better meet the needs of conformance with Public Law 101-592, Included in these considerations were improved de- finition of a full body versus a reduced body and those dimensions which should be certified to assure product fit, form, and function, Other dimensions given for each product would only be examined in the event of a dispute, Also, the term finished hex bolt,” which is today's cap screw, should be dropped. Additionally, a weight table has been included to assist users. ‘Additionally, it was felt that the heavy hex structural bolt, heavy hex nut, hardened steel washers and compressible washer-type direct tension indicators should be included in a new standard for fasteners intended for use in sructural applications. For this reason the heavy hex structural bolt was removed from this Standard, The new table for maximum grip gaging lengths ‘and minimam body lengths for cap screws and heavy hex screws is included for the firs time to assist users and i similar to the pattern used for metric bolts and screws. ‘ASME B18.2.1-1996 was approved by the American National Standards Instinuie (ANSD) on December 4, 1996,ASME STANDARDS COMMITTEE B18 Standardization of Bolts, Nuts, Rivets, Screws, Washers, and Similar Fasteners {The following isthe roster of the Commitee at the time of approval of this Standard.)

It should be un- Gerstood, however, that where questions arise concem- ing acceptance of produc, the dimensions in the tables shall govern over recalculation by formula. Heavy hex structural bolts, formerly covered in ANSI BI8.21, are ‘pow covered in ASME BI8.2.6. 1.1.2 The inclusion of dimensional data in this ‘Standard js not intended to imply that all of the products described herein are stock production sizes. Consumers: should consult with manufacturers concerning lists of stock production sizes. 1.1.3 Square and Hex Bolts and Screws purchased for Government use shall conform to this Standard and to any additional requirements specified in the purchase or- der or contract. See Appendix E for the Goverament Part dentifying Numbering System (PIN code) and other re- quirements for hexagon lead cap screws. 1.2 Dimensions All dimensions in this Standard are in inches, unless ‘otherwise stated, and apply to unplated or uncoated pros uct, When plating or coating is specified, the finished product dimensions shall be as agreed upon between sup- plier and purchaser. Symbols specifying geometric characteristics are in accord with ASME YI45M, Dimensioning and Tolerancing. 1.3 Options Options, where specified, shall be at the discretion of the manufacturer unless otherwise agreed upon by the ‘manufacturer and the purchaser. 1.4 Terminology AAs used in this Standard, the term “long bolt” or “long screw" means a bolt or screw of a diameter-length com. bination which is not threaded for full length, and the term “short bolt” or “short screw” means a bolt or screw of a diameter-length combination which is required to be threaded for full length. body length (Ly): the distance measured parallel to the axis of the bolt or screw from the underhead bearing sur- face to the last scratch of thread or, for rolled threads, the top of the extrusion angle. Where specified, the min- imam body length (Lp. min.) isa criterion for inspection arp gaging length (Ligh: the distance measured parale! to the axis ofthe bot or screw from the underhead bear- ing surface tothe face of @ noncounterbored, noncoun- tersunk standard GO thread ring gage assembled by hand as far asthe thread will permit. The maximam grip gag ing length (Lg, max.) isa criterion for inspection. ‘point length: the length from the pointed end to the first fully formed thread at major diameter as determined by the distance that the point enters into a cylindrical NOT GO major diameter ring gage (ref. Gage 3.1, ASME B12). thread length: the length from the extreme point of the bolt oF screw to the last complete (full form) thread. For bolts and screws in this Standard, other than lag screws, the nominal thread length (L) is a reference dimension intended for calculation purposes only. transition thread length (Y): the length which includes the length of incomplete threads, the extrusion angle on rolled threads, and tolerances on grip length. Where sec- ified, maximum transition thread length (Y, max.) is aref- erence dimension intended for calculation purposes enlyASME 818.2.1-1936 For definitions of other terms relating to fasteners or ‘component features thereof used in this Standard refer to American National Standard Glossary of Terms for Mechanical Fasteners, ANSI B18.12, 1.5 Referenced Standards Unless otherwise specified, the referenced standard shall be the most recent issue at the time of order place~ ment.

The width across flats of head shall be the overall distance measured perpen- dicular o the axis of product berween two opposite sides of the head in accordance with the notes in respective di- ‘mensional tables, 2.1.2 Head Height. The head heignt shall be the ‘overall distance measured parallel to the axis of product from the top of the head to the bearing surface and shall include the thickness of the washer face where provided. 2.2 Bolt or Screw Length ‘The bolt or screw length shall be the distance mea- sured parallel to the axis of product from the bearing sur- face of the head to the extreme end of the bolt or screw, including point if the product is pointed. 2.3 Threads Threads on all products except lag screws shall be Unified Standard Class 2A of the series specified in the notes on respective dimensional tables as documented in American National Standard, Unified Inch Screw ‘Threads (UN and UNR Thread Form), ASME BI.1. Unless otherwise specified, size limits for standard ex- temal thread Class 2A apply prior to coating. The exter- ‘SQUARE AND HEX BOLTS AND SCREWS {INCH SERIES) nal thread allowance may thus be used to accommodate the costing thickness on coated parts, provided that the ‘maximum coating thickness is no more than one-fourth of the allowance. Thus, the thread after coating is sub- ject to acceptance using a basic Class 3A size GO thread gage and a Class 2A thread gage for either minimum ma- terial or NOT GO, Where extzmal thread has no al- lowance, or allowance must be maintained after coating. and for standard internal threads, sufficient allowance "must be provided prior to coating to assure tet finished Product threads do not exceed. the maximum-material limits specified. For thread Class 3A, Class 2A ak lowances in accordance with ASME BI.1 should be ap- plied whenever possible. 2.3.1 Thread Gaging. Unless otherwise specified by the purchaser, dimensional sccepuability of screw threads shall be determined based on System 21, ASME BI.3M, Screw Thread Gaging Systems for Dimensional Acceptability—Inch and Metric Screw Threads (UN, UNR, UNI, M, and MI) 2.4 Body Diameter “The body diameter minimuny/maximum limits of each ‘of the cight products included in this Standard are de- fined in each of the respective applicable tables.
