Proof load of stainless steel nuts, coarse thread
Steel nuts (coarse thread)ISO 898-2 (JIS B 1052-2)Unlike bolts, the proof stress rises with nominal diameter within the same property class. Steel nuts (fine thread)ISO 898-6 (JIS B 1052-6)A separate standard from the coarse thread. At the same property class the stress is higher, and the range of nominal diameters is narrower.Stainless steel nuts (coarse thread)ISO 3506-2 (JIS B 1054-2)The proof stress does not change with the nominal diameter; it splits into two according to the nut height.Stainless steel nuts (fine thread)ISO 3506-2 (JIS B 1054-2)The proof stress is the same as for the coarse thread. The larger stress area makes the proof load larger by the same amount.
Notes
- The proof load is the effective sectional area multiplied by the proof stress. The effective sectional area is calculated as given in JIS B 1082. The source has no proof load table. The standard goes only as far as the proof stress.
- The source does not state how the standard height and the thin nut correspond. The standard defines only how to read the three digits: the leading 0 marks a thin nut, and the next two digits are one tenth of the proof stress. halving the stress and rounding down to a multiple of 50 gives exactly one pairing, so that is the order used here (
F1at 45 comes out as 200 rather than 225). - The values here are for room temperature. Mechanical properties change at high and low temperatures, so do not apply these values directly.
