1、Designation: A563 07a (Reapproved 2014)A563 15Standard Specification forCarbon and Alloy Steel Nuts1This standard is issued under the fixed designation A563; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision

2、. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the U.S. Department of Defense.1. Scope*1.1 This specification2 covers chemical and mech

3、anical requirements for eight grades of carbon and alloy steel nuts for generalstructural and mechanical uses on bolts, studs, and other externally threaded parts.NOTE 1See Appendix X1 for guidance on suitable application of nut grades.1.2 The requirements for any grade of nut may, at the suppliers

4、option, and with notice to the purchaser, be fulfilled byfurnishing nuts of one of the stronger grades specified herein unless such substitution is barred in the inquiry and purchase order.1.3 Grades C3 and DH3 nuts have atmospheric corrosion resistance and weathering characteristics comparable to t

5、hat of thesteels covered in Specifications A242/A242M, A588/A588M, and A709/A709M. The atmospheric corrosion resistance of thesesteels is substantially better than that of carbon steel with or without copper addition (see 5.2). When properly exposed to theatmosphere, these steels can be used bare (u

6、ncoated) for many applications.NOTE 2A complete metric companion to Specification A563 has been developedA563M; therefore, no metric equivalents are presented in thisspecification.1.4 Terms used in this specification are defined in Terminology F1789 unless otherwise defined herein.2.
