Zorluk: OrtaBolts, Nuts, and Washers

While replacing a suspension control arm on an imported vehicle, a technician inspects a steel hex-head bolt stamped with the number 10.910.9 on the top of the head. What do these stamped numbers indicate about the fastener?

  1. A
    The bolt is an SAE standard fastener rated at an ultimate strength of Grade 10.
  2. The bolt is a metric fastener belonging to Property Class 10.9, indicating high tensile strength.Cevap
  3. C
    The bolt has a 10-inch shank length and a thread count of 9 threads per inch.
  4. D
    The bolt head requires a specialized 10.9 mm wrench opening for proper torque application.

Cevap

The stamped marking indicates that the bolt is a metric fastener belonging to Property Class 10.9, denoting a high tensile strength.
On automotive and industrial fasteners, decimal numerical stamps (such as 8.88.8, 10.910.9, and 12.912.9) identify ISO metric property classes. A marking of 10.910.9 indicates a quenched and tempered medium carbon alloy steel bolt with high tensile strength (nominal tensile strength of 1040 MPa1{}040\text{ MPa}), commonly used in high-stress chassis and suspension applications.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the stamping format on the hex bolt head.
The marking is a two-digit decimal number (10.910.9).
Metric fasteners use embossed decimal numbers to represent mechanical property classes, whereas SAE fractional fasteners use radial lines.
2
Interpret the meaning of the metric Property Class designation.
Property Class 10.910.9 specifies a minimum tensile strength of approximately 1000 MPa1{}000\text{ MPa} and a yield strength that is 90%90\% of the tensile strength (900 MPa900\text{ MPa}).
The first number multiplied by 100100 gives nominal tensile strength in megapascals, and the decimal indicates the ratio of yield strength to tensile strength.
