    This document provides information on bolt grade markings and strength properties for US and metric bolts. It lists the head markings that indicate the grade and material of US bolts, along with their typical size ranges and minimum mechanical properties including proof load, yield strength, and tensile strength. For metric bolts, it provides the head markings for classes 8.8, 10.9, and 12.9 bolts along with their minimum mechanical properties. It also includes information on markings and properties for 18-8 stainless steel bolts.

    Tensile Strength: The maximum load in tension (pulling apart) which a material can withstand before breaking or fracturing. Yield Strength: The maximum load at which a material exhibits a specific permanent deformation Proof Load: An axial tensile load which the product must withstand without evidence of any permanent set. 1MPa = 1N/mm2 = 145 pounds/inch2
