Foreword

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.

The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).

Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).

This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 2, Fasteners, Subcommittee SC 12, Fasteners with metric internal thread, in collaboration with the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) Technical Committee CEN/TC 185, Fasteners, in accordance with the Agreement on technical cooperation between ISO and CEN (Vienna Agreement).

This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition (ISO 4033:2012) which has been technically revised.

The main changes are as follows:

M7, M18, M22, M27, M33 and M39 have been added;
minimum height of the washer-face c_min has been added;
d_{_a,max}, d_{_w,min} and m_{_w,min} have been specified with two decimal places;
d_{_w,min} for M5 has been changed from s_{_min} – IT16 to s_{_min} – IT15 in order to have a larger bearing surface area and thus less contact pressure;
for steel nuts, quenching and tempering condition has been specified in accordance with ISO 898‑2, and property class 9 has been deleted;
stainless steel nuts have been added;
specifications for marking and labelling have been added as Clause 6.
