DIN 933 M20 × 100 Hexagon head

DIN 933 M20 × 100 is a hexagon head bolt with a 100 mm nominal length, on a M20 × 1.5 mm metric thread. A hexagon head fastener threaded all the way to the head. Glyph marking on the head identifies the property class, normally 8.8, 10.9 or A2-70.

Interchangeability

DIN 933 is catalogued with ISO 4017 as its equivalent designation. Dimensions are compared field by field rather than assumed identical.

Choosing and fitting this size

DIN 933 M20 × 100 is a hexagon head in M20, 100 mm long under the head, on a 1.5 mm coarse pitch. Mating threads should be a matching class nut or a tapped hole of the same nominal size.

Common stock grades are 8.8, 10.9 and 12.9 in steel, plus A2-70 and A4-80 in stainless. Class 10.9 and 12.9 carry roughly 1.25 and 1.5 times the proof load of 8.8, but they also need a properly rated mating nut — a class 8 nut under a 12.9 bolt simply moves the failure into the thread. Zinc-plated 10.9 and above should be baked to avoid hydrogen embrittlement.

For a tapped hole, M20 × 1.5 mm takes a 18.5 mm tap drill, and the external thread's minor diameter is 18.16 mm — that is the section carrying the load, not the nominal M20 figure. Thread engagement of at least one times the nominal diameter is what lets the bolt fail before the thread strips.
