Din en Iso 898-1 DIN EN 20 898-2: Strength Values

The document discusses standards for screw and nut strength classes. It provides tables with information on the nominal tensile strength, lower yield point, and elongation percentages for various strength classes of screws from 4.6 to 12.9. It explains that the strength class identification number consists of the nominal tensile strength in hundredths of N/mm2 and ten times the yield point ratio. A second section discusses test tension strength classes for nuts from 5 to 12 that vary based on screw thread size. It notes that the identification number multiplied by 100 equals the test tension in N/mm2.

Elongation A in % 22 20 – – 12    9    8

Features
The strength class identification number consists of two numerals:
•T
 he first number corresponds to 1 /100 of the nominal tensile strength in N/mm2 (see table)
• T he second number shows ten times the ratio of lower yield point ReL (or 0.2 %-yield limit Rp 0,2)
to the nominal tensile strength Rm, nom (yield point ratio).
Example: Strength class 5.8 means:
Minimum tensile strength Rm = 500 N/mm2,
Minimum yield point ReL = 400 N/mm2
Also, multiplying both numerals results in 1 /10 of the yield point in N/mm2.

Features
The designation of a strength class consists of a identification number which provides information on the test tension of
the material used:
Identification number x 100 = Test tension Sp
The test tension is equal to the minimum tensile strength in N/mm2 of a screw which, if paired with the appropriate nut, can
be loaded up to the minimum yield point of the screw.
Example: Screw 8.8 – Nut 8, connection can be loaded up to the minimum yield point of the screw.
