What size of bolts do I need?

A typical rule of thumb . . . Use a bolt diameter that is 1.5 – 2.5 times (up to three times) the thickness of the thinner material you are bolting together. So, for 1/8″ material, a 1/4″ diameter is often a good bolt choice. For 1/4″ thick material, perhaps a 3/8″ or 1/2″ bolt.

4. Choose an effective bolt securing method.
5. Decide on the most appropriate tightening method.

Is 13/32 The same as 10mm?

10mm is a bit awkward to convert to imperial. The closest is 13/32 but it’s unlikely that you’ll get anything that size. Best bet would be 7/16 but it may well feel a bit big.

Is M12 the same as 12mm?

Yes. M12 is a 12mm diameter thread. You have to be sure the thread pitch measured in threads per millimeter (1.5 here) is the same as what u need.

What’s the difference between M10 and M12?

The only difference between the M10 and M12 is the external appearance.

What does m20 bolt mean?

M10-1.0 x 20

M = This designates the fastener is a metric size. 10 = The nominal diameter in millimeters. 1.0 = The thread pitch, or distance between threads, in millimeters. 20 = The fastener’s length, in millimeters.

What does 4.8 mean on a bolt?

For example, a bolt with a performance grade of 4.8 means:

The nominal tensile strength of bolt material is 400 MPa. The yield-strength ratio of bolt material is 0.8.

What size is a #12 bolt?

How do bolt sizes work?

To measure the diameter of screws and bolts, you measure the distance from the outer thread on one side to the outer thread on the other side. This is called the major diameter and will usually be the proper size of the bolt.

What size is a 4.8 bolt?

Metric steel bolts, screws and studs – proof and tensile strength.

Which type of threads have high strength?

Where the length of engagement is limited, fine threads provide greater strength. Their larger minor diameters develop higher torsional and transverse shear lengths. Fine threads require less torque to develop equivalent bolt preloads. Fine threads are more susceptible to thread galling than coarse threads.

What are the three categories when sizing a bolt?

Diameter, Thread count/pitch, and Length should always be specified in this order.

How long should bolts be?

Many studies have found that there is a simple rule of thumb for standard pitch fasteners. The depth of a fastener should be at least two times its nominal diameter. For example a 1/4in (0.25in) fastener should be threaded at least 1/2in (0.50in) deep.

How are 12 sockets measured?

In the current market, socket sizes are divided into two systems: SAE (imperial, measured in inches) and metric (measured in millimeters). Both 6-point and 12-point sockets are measured using these two systems. The popular range is 5.5~24mm.

What is the meaning of M12 bolt?

The first half (M12), is the size measurement (metric) taken across the outside diameter of the thread (which in this case is 12mm). The second half is the thread pitch, which is the measurement of threads/inch (which in this case is 1.75).

What does 8.8 mean on a bolt?

The two figures indicate the tensile and yield strengths of the bolt or screw. In the case of a 8.8 grade bolt the first figure signifies that the Tensile Strength is at least 800MPa.
