The norm BS 3692 gives guidance on the general dimensions and tolerances of precision hexagon bolts, screws and nuts with ISO metric threads in diameters from 1.6mm to 68mm. It also specifies and addresses mechanical properties of carbon or alloy steel bolts, screws and nuts, which are to be used for special applications.
