This standard establishes procedures for conducting tests to determine the mechanical properties of externally and internally threaded fasteners. Property requirements and the applicable tests for their determination are specified in individual product standards. In those instances where the testing requirements are unique or at variance with these standard procedures, the product standard shall specify the controlling testing requirements. This standard describes mechanical tests for determining the following properties: For externally threaded fasteners: Product hardness (Section 4.1) Surface hardness (Section 4.2) Proof load (Section 4.3) Yield strength (Section 4.4) Axial tensile strength (Section 4.5) Wedge tensile strength (Section 4.6) Elongation (Section 4.7) Reduction of area (Section 4.7) For internally threaded fasteners: Product hardness (Section 5.1) Proof load (Section 5.2)

Table 3, Practical Length Increments and Ranges, indicates spring pin sizes. Information on availability of individual lengths in the various types, weights, and materials may be obtained from suppliers. The tolerance on length for coiled type spring pins shall be plus or minus 0.010 in. for sizes up to and including 5/16 in.; and plus or minus 0.015 in. for sizes larger than 5/16 in.

These specifications cover the mechanical and chemical requirements for carbon steel solid rivets used in automotive and other related industries.

This SAE Standard covers requirements for thread rolling screws suitable for use in general engineering applications. (It is intended that "thread rolling" screws have performance capabilities beyond those normally expected of other standard types of tapping screws.) NOTE—The performance requirements covered in this document apply only to the combination of laboratory conditions described in the testing procedures. If other conditions are encountered in an actual service application (such as different materials, thicknesses, hole sizes, etc.), values shown herein for drive torque, torque-to-clamp load, and proof torque may require adjustment.

Included herein are general, dimensional, and performance specifications for those types, styles, and sizes of steel stamped Push-On Spring Nuts recognized as SAE standard. These nuts are intended for general use where the engagement on the mating metal or plastic studs and in some cases screw bolt threads is considered adequate for the fastening joint application. It should be noted that Push-On Spring Nuts having other characteristics and configurations are available and manufacturers should be consulted. For the inch equivalent of this document, see SAE J892.

This SAE Information Report is provided as an advisory guide. Careful discretion as to application is recommended. The content has been presented as accurately as possible, but responsibility for its application lies with the user. It covers finishes applied to fasteners and related topics, corrosion resistance, lubricity, electrical grounding, ultraviolet light, and embrittlement. Table 1 lists these coatings and their properties so that finish selection can be reasonably made in accordance with known and anticipated fastener assembly applications. Application of protective coatings will affect fastener dimensions. This is especially critical for the thread fit of mating parts because the pitch diameter increases by four times the coating thickness. Explanation is covered in Section 5.

This test procedure is intended to provide a quality control method for checking torque-tension characteristics of non-prevailing torque-type threaded steel fasteners 1/4 through 1 in nominal diameters. Realistically torque-tension relationships for specific individual fastener assembly joints will vary due to the different joint parameters. Tests using actual joint components will be required to determine accurate torque-tension values for those conditions. For the metric version, see SAE J174M.
