ISO 262 Metric Screw Threads — Selected Pitches for Screws, Bolts and Nuts (M1.6 – M64)

Documents

Shipments are backed by Mill Test Certificate (MTC), Dimensional Report, Salt Spray Test Report on request, with full batch traceability from raw material to finished product. Quality management follows the owner-confirmed compliance list: ISO 9001:2015, RoHS, REACH. Exact document sets are confirmed on the order.

Quotation

• The fastener family (ISO 262 Metric Screw Threads — Selected Pitches for Screws, Bolts and Nuts (M1.6 – M64)) plus the standard designation from your drawing — DIN / ISO / JIS / ASTM / ANSI, or a drawing for custom parts.
• Size (diameter and length), thread type (metric or inch), property class or grade, and coating or finish.
• Quantity per size and your target delivery date.
• Destination country, and any required documents (for example a mill test certificate) so the quote includes them.

Sample & supply

Minimum order quantity is 10,000 pieces. Stock items run 3–7 days. Quantities or variants outside the standard range are confirmed at quotation.

Storage & shipping

Parts are packed for export and shipped factory-direct to buyers in Europe, Asia, the Americas and the Middle East. Store fasteners dry and protected until installation, and keep coated parts in their packaging until use; specific packing and preservation requirements can be stated on the order and confirmed at quotation.

Coarse or fine pitch for a metric fastener — and why does the 1st/2nd-choice size split matter for ordering?

For pitch: default to coarse unless something specific pushes the other way. The coarse pitch (the unmarked default, M10 = 1.5, M16 = 2) assembles faster, tolerates dirt and handling, strips less easily in lower-strength materials and is what distributors stock deepest — the collected table gives every size exactly one coarse pitch and only offers fine pitches from M8 up. The fine pitches earn their place in four situations: vibration-critical clamping (finer pitch's shallow helix resists backing off), adjustment mechanisms (each turn moves the joint less), thin walls (a fine thread fits full form into less wall thickness), and high-strength bolts where the larger core diameter of a fine thread buys tensile capacity. Order fine only when the drawing or the joint names it — a fine-pitch bolt in a coarse-tapped hole is the classic mixing error. For size choice: the 1st/2nd-choice split is an economics signal. 1st-choice sizes (M10, M12, M16, M20 …) are the ladder taps, gages and stock are built around; 2nd-choice sizes (M14, M18, M22 …) exist for when a design genuinely needs the intermediate step, and lead times and stock depth reflect that thinner ecosystem. New designs should stay on the 1st-choice ladder; conversions of existing hardware should honor whatever the mating parts already are.

What is the MOQ and lead time for threaded parts on this standard?

The minimum order quantity is 10,000 pieces. Stock items ship in 3–7 days; non-stock items are confirmed at quotation. Common thread sizes on this standard are widely stocked; confirm the exact schedule against quantity and size mix at quotation.
