Notes to Table 4:
(1) Top of Head. Top of head shall be full form and
chamfered, with the diameter of chamfer circle being
‘equal to the maximum width across flats within a toler-
ance of minus 15%.
(2) Wrenching Height, J. Wrenching height is a dis-
tance measured from the bearing surface up the side of
the head at the carers. The width arene comers shall
be within specified limits forthe full wrenching height.
(G) Bearing Surface. Bearing surface shal be flat and.
washer faced. Diameter of washer face shall be equal to
‘the maximum width across flats within a tolerance of mi-
rus 106
‘Thickness of the washer face shall be not less than
0.015 in, nor greater than 0.025 in. for screw sizes Yin,
and smaller, and not less than 0.015 in. nor greater than
0.035 in. for sizes larger than % in. Measurement of
‘washer face diameter shall be taken at a height of 0.00%
in, above the bearing surface
Circular runout ofthe bearing surface, with respect to
the axis of the body, shall be within the FIM limits spec-
ied. Measurement of FIM shall be made as close 10 the
periphery of the bearing surface as possible while the
screw is held ina collet or other gripping device ata dis-
tance of one screw diameter from the underside of the
head.
(4) True Position of Head. The axis of the head shall
be located at true position with respect to the axis of the
body (determined over a distance under the head equal
to one diameter) within a tolerance zone whose diameter
is equivalent to 6% of the maximum width across fats,
regardless of feature size
(5) Fillet, Two styles of head-to-shank fillets are pro-
vided for fong screws in lengths longer than the maxi-
‘mum lengths specified in Table 4B. Style 1 will be sup-
plied unless Style 2 is specified by the purchaser.
Style 1 is a continuous sadius in accordance with the
‘maximum-minimum limits for R shown in Table 4.
Style 2 has an elliptical shape defined as a smooth,
‘multradius, concave curve tangent tothe underhead bear-
ing surface ata point no greater than one-half of E, max.
Oo less than one-half of #, min. trom the axis of the
screws and tangent to the shank at a distance from the
tunderhead bearing surface within the limits specified for
Ly. No radius in the fillet shall be less than R, min. (see
Fig. | and Table 4A).
For short screws threaded full length (Table 4B), the
fillet shall be a smooth, concave curve lying within the
envelope established by either:
(@) a continuous radius tangent to the underhead
bearing surface and minJmax. shank diameter F,, vin
SQUARE AND HEX BOLTS AND SCREWS (INCH SERIES)
(min, pitch diameter) to £, max., whose value shall be
no less than R, min. as specified in Table 4; or
(b) a continuous or multradius curve tangent to the
lunderhead bearing surface a a point no greater than one-
half E, max. from the axis of screw, and tangent to the
‘maximum shank diameter, £, max., ata distance not ex
ceeding Ly, max. from the bearing surface.
NNo radius in the multiradius curve shall be less than
R, min. specified in Table 1 (soe Fig. 2.
where
Ey, min, = Minimum specified pitch diameter of coarse
thread: UNC ~ 2A
Eq, max. = Maximum fillet transition diameter (see
Table 4A),
Eyq, min. = Ey, max, ~ 0.5 (Ey, max. ~ Ey, min)
(6) Body Diameter. The diameter of body, except for
a length equal to Z, max. undet the head, shall conform
to the limits for E given in Table 4. The diameter of the
‘unthreaded length on short screws which are threaded for
full length shall not be less than the minimum pitch di-
ameter of the thread nor greater than the maximum body
iameter, £, max., specttied in Table 4 (see Fig. 2).
(7) Point Point shal be chamfered or rounded at man-
ufacturer’s option from approximately 0,016 in, below
the minor diameter of the thread, The first full formed
thread at major diameter is located a a distance no greater
than 2 times the pitch measure from the end ofthe screw.
‘This distance is to be determined by measuring how far
the point enters into a cylindrical NOT GO major diam-
ter ring gage (reference Gage 3.1, ASME B1.2).

(8) Length Tolerances. Screw length tolerances are
given in Table 10. Tolerances for pointed provets shall
apply. ‘
(9) Thread Length. The length of thread on screws
shall be controlled by the grip gaging length, Lg, max.
and body length, Lg, min.
Long screws not threaded full length of diameters
through 1% in. and lengths through 10 in. are specified
in Table 5. For short screws threaded ull length, Lg, max.
‘and Lg, min. are given in Table 4B (see Fig. 3)
For diameter-length combinations not included in
‘Table 4B of Table 5, the maximum grip gaging length,
Lg, max., for long screws which are not threaded full
length, as calculated and rounded to two decimal places,
shall be equal to the nominal screw length minus the nom-
inal thread length (Lg, max. = L, nom. ~ L). It shall be
used as the criterion for inspection,
‘Nominal thread length, Ly, is a reference dimension
intended for calculation purposes only, which represents
the distance from the extreme end of the screw tothe last

‘complete (full form) thread. Nominal thread length equals,
twice the basic thread diameter plus 0.25 in. for nominal
screw length up to and including 6 in., and twice the ba-
sic thread diameter plus 0.50 in. for nominal lengths over
6in,
Body length, L», min., is the distance measured paral-
lel to the axis of screw from the underhead bearing sur-
face tothe last scratch of thread orto the top of the ex-
trusion angle. For diameter length combinations not
included in Table 4B or Table 5, the minimum body
length, La, min., as calculated and rounded to two deci-
mal places, shall be equal to the maximum grip gaging
length minus the maximum transition thread length (Lp,
‘min. = Lg, max. ¥, max.). It shall be a criterion for
inspection
Transition threadslength, Y, max. is a reference di-
‘mension equal o five coarse (UNC) pitches and intended
for calculation purposes only. It includes the length of
‘incomplete threads, the extrusion angle on rolled threads,
and tolerances on grip length.
(10) Incomplete Thread Diameter. The major diam-
ter of incomplete thread shall not exceed the actual ma
Jor diameter of the full form thread.
(11) Body Position and Screw Straightness. The
alignment and straightness ofthe thread and body shall
be such that the screw will meet the gaging requirements
set forth in Appendix I. In addition, screws of nominal
lengths over 10 in. dhrwugh 12 in. stall be straight wit
a maximum camber of 0.006 in. per inch (0.006L) of
serew length; and screws of nominal lengths over 12 in.
through 24 in. shall be straight within a maximum ean
ber of 0.008 in, per inch (0.0082) of serew length when
checked by the gage and gaging procedure given in
Appendix I
(12) Threads. Threads, when rolled, shall be Unified
Inch coarse fine, or 8 thread series (UNRC, UNRF, or 8
UNR Series), Class 2A. Threads produced by other meth-
‘ode shall preferably be UNRC, UNRE, or 8 UNR, but at
‘manufactures's option, may be Unified Inch coarse, fine,
or 8 thread series (UNC, UNF, or 8 UN series), Class
2A. Accepiability of serew threads shall be determined
based on System 21 ASME BI3M, Screw Thread
Gaging. Systems for Dimensional Acceptability —Inch
and Metric Screw Threads (UN, UNR, UNJ, M, and MJ),
(13) Identification Symbols. Identification marking
symbols on screw heads shall be raised or indented atthe
‘manufacturer's option unless otherwise specified. The
‘marking shall be in accordance withthe requirements of
para, 2.8, Markings shall be legible to the unaided eye
withthe exception of corrective lenses. When raised, the
height of the marking may not exceed 0.015 in. over the
specified maximum head height for screws % in, and[ASME B18.2.11996
‘SQUARE AND HEX BOLTS AND SCREWS (INCH SERIES)
smaller. For screws larger than “kin., the marking may
‘not project more than 0,030 in, over the specified maxi
‘mum head height. When indented, the depth of the mark-
ing shall not reduce the load carrying capability of the
fastener.
(14) Material. Unless otherwise specified, chemical
‘and mechanical properties of steel screws shall conform
lo ASTM A 307, ASTM A 449, ASTM A 394 Grade BD,
for SAE 1429, Other materials and grades shall be as
agreed upon by manufacturer and purchaser.
(15) Nominal Size. Where specifying nominal size in
decimals, zeros preceding the decimal and in the fourth
‘decimal place shall be omitted
(16) Dimensional Conformance. Unless otherwise
specified, hex cap screws shall have the following char-
acteristics inspected to ASME B18.18.2M to the inspec-
tion levels shown:

quirements, see Section 1, Introductory Notes, and
