FOREWORD
(This Foreword is not a part of ANSVASME 618.1.3M-1983, Metric Small Solid Rivets.)
American National Standards Committee B18 for the standardization of bolts, screws,
nuts, rivets, and similar fastenerswas organized in March 1922 as Sectional CommitteeB18
under the aegis of the American Engineering Standards Committee (later the American
Standards Association, then the United States of America Standards Institute and, as of
October 6, 1969, the American National Standards Institute, Inc.), with the Society of
AutomotiveEngineersandtheAmericanSociety of MechanicalEngineers as joint
sponsors. Subcommittee1 was subsequently established and charged with the responsibility
for technical content of standards covering solid rivets.
At its meetingon December 4,1974, CommitteeB18 authorized preparationof a series of
standards for metric fasteners. Subcommittee1 was assigned responsibility for developing
standards for metric solid rivets.
InFebruary 1978, Committee B18 establishedacooperativeprogramwiththe
Department of Defense to draftAmerican National Standards for metric fasteners in such a
way that they could be used directly by the Government for procurement purposes. The
Department of Defense requested that each productbe covered in separate standards, and
Subcommittee 1 accepted this approach.
This Standardwas approved by letter ballot of Committee B18 on February 4, 1983, and
wassubsequentlyapproved by thesponsorandsubmittedtotheAmericanNational
Standards Institute for designation as an American National Standard. This was on granted
September 8, 1983.

FOREWORD
(This Foreword is not part of ANSI/ASME B18.2.3.9M-1984.)
American National Standards Committee B18 for the standardization of bolts, screws, nuts,
rivets, and similar fasteners was organized in March 1922 as Sectional Committee B18 under the
aegis of the American Engineering Standards Committee(later the American Standards Associa-
tion, then the United States of America Standards Institute and, as of October 6, 1969, the
American National Standards Institute, Inc.), with the Society of Automotive Engineers and
the American Society of Mechanical Engineers as joint sponsors. Subcommittee 2 was subse-
quently established and charged withthe responsibility for technical contentofstandards
covering wrench head bolts and nuts.
At its meeting on December 4, 1974, Committee B18 authorized preparation of a series of
standards for metric fasteners. Subcommittee 2 was assigned responsibility for developing stan-
dards for metric hex bolts,screws, and nuts.
Following issuance of ANSI B18.2.3.4M-1979, interest developed in the farm equipment,
heavy truck, and off-road vehicles industries for a second series of metric hex flange screws
having a head widths across flats series equal to those of metric hex capscrews. During the ana-
lytical research study to optimize head proportions of hex flange screws (refer to Foreword of
ANSI/ASME B18.2.3.4M-1984), this larger head series was also investigated, and appropriate
values for the various head characteristics were established for screw sizes M10 through M20.
This new-design of metric heavy hex flange screws was submitted by the United States of
AmericalCanada to ISO/TC2 at its May 1982 meetings. TC2 accepted the proposal and autho-
rized development of IS0 standards.
Following these IS0 decisions, Subcommittee 2 drafted this Standard.
This Standard was approved by letter ballot of the ASME Standards CommitteeB18 on April
18, 1983, and was subsequently approved by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers
and submitted to the American National Standards Institute for designation as an American
National Standard. This was granted on March 23, 1984.

THREADRUNOUTAND SCREW STRAIGHTNESSREFEREEGAGESAND
GAGINGPROCEDURE
(This Appendix is not an integral part of. ANSI/ASME 818.2.3.9M-1984 and i s

included for information purposes only.)
Referee gages for simultaneouslychecking thread runout and screw straightness are illus-
trated below.
Both constructions can accommodate different lengths of screws through the combination of
various lengths of sleeves to build up the required length L . When two or moresections are com-
bined, care must be exercised to assure accurate alignment of the internal hole.
In the lower construction, GO thread ring gage A is centered on the sleeve B by means of
positioning plug E and is secured in position by attachment screws C . The ring gage is set to
class 6H maximum pitch diameter byuse of the positioning plug E.
Diameter Dh of counterbore or hole in sleeve(s) equals the normal clearance hole diameter
specified for the screw diameter in Appendix 11. The .sleeve length L (either single sleeve or
combination of sleeve sections) shall be equal to the nominal screw length minus one nominal
screw diameter.
To ensure adequate service life, gages and sleeve sections should be suitably hardened.
Failure of the product to enter the threads of thegage by hand for a minimum of two com-
plete threads indicates excessive thread runout and/orout-of-straightness.

GENERAL NOTES:
normal clearance - normal clearance hole sizes are preferred for general purpose applications and should
be specified unless special design considerations dictate the need for either aclose or loose clearance hole
close clearance - close clearance hole sizes should be specified only where conditions such as critical
alignment of assembled parts, wall thickness, or other limitations necessitate use of a minimal hole. When
close clearance holes are specified, special provision (e.9.. countersinking) must be provided at the screw
entry side to permitproper seating of the screw head.
loose clearance - loose clearance hole sizes should be specified only for applications where maximum
adjustment capability between components beingassembled i s necessary
recommended tolerances - the clearance hole diameters given i n t h e table are minimum sizes. Recom-
mended tolerances are plus 0.3 m m f o r screw diameters M10 through M16; and plus 0.4 m m f o r screw
