- DThe 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 , , and ) identify ISO metric property classes. A marking of indicates a quenched and tempered medium carbon alloy steel bolt with high tensile strength (nominal tensile strength of ), commonly used in high-stress chassis and suspension applications.
