M10 Slotted Long Dog Point Set Screw are manufactured to GB/T 75 / ISO 7435 with a coarse thread pitch of 1.5 mm. This page lists the controlling dimensions for the M10 size — head geometry, width across flats, matching spanner size — together with the clearance hole, tapping drill and tightening torque used at assembly.
M10 Dimensional Row (GB/T 75 / ISO 7435)
| Size | Pitch (mm) | Length L (mm) | Hex socket s (mm) | Engagement depth t min (mm) | Point diameter dp (mm) | Reference standard |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| M10 | 1.5 | 15 | 5.0 | 5.0 | 7.0 | ISO 4026-4029 / GB/T 77-79 |
Spanner & Drive for M10 Slotted Long Dog Point Set Screw — GB/T 75 / ISO 7435 (Series 041)
The hex socket for M10 Slotted Long Dog Point Set Screw — GB/T 75 / ISO 7435 (Series 041) is shown in the spec table — use the matching Allen / hex key (an ISO 2936 hex key set covers the full range). A T-handle Allen key gives the best feel for setting preload by feel; for production work use a torque-controlled driver.
Hole Sizes for M10
| Coarse-thread pitch (ISO 724) | 1.5 mm |
|---|---|
| Through-hole / clearance (ISO 273 medium) | 11 mm |
| Tapping drill, coarse thread | 8.5 mm |
Tightening Torque for M10
| Class 8.8 (dry, ~µ 0.125) | ≈ 49 Nm |
|---|---|
| Class 10.9 (dry, ~µ 0.125) | ≈ 69 Nm |
| Class 12.9 (dry, ~µ 0.125) | ≈ 83 Nm |
Indicative dry-joint values. Lubrication can lower the required torque by 15–25%. Always confirm against the joint design, especially when going up a strength class.
Proof Load & Strength for M10
| Tensile stress area As (ISO 898-1) | 58 mm² |
|---|---|
| Proof load, class 8.8 | 34 kN |
| Proof load, class 10.9 | 48 kN |
| Proof load, class 12.9 | 56 kN |
| Min. ultimate tensile, class 8.8 | 46 kN |
Proof load = stress area × proof stress per ISO 898-1. Design joints so the working preload stays below the proof load of the selected class.
M10 Slotted Long Dog Point Set Screw — GB/T 75 / ISO 7435 (Series 041) Weight
A steel M10 slotted long dog point set screw at the listed 15 mm length weighs approximately 4.5 g each — about 4.5 kg per 1,000 pieces. Stainless A2/A4 weighs roughly the same (density 7.9–8.0 g/cm³). Actual weight varies slightly with head form, thread and finish; use this figure for freight estimation only.
Common Applications for M10 Slotted Long Dog Point Set Screw — GB/T 75 / ISO 7435 (Series 041)
M10 Slotted Long Dog Point Set Screw — GB/T 75 / ISO 7435 (Series 041) are commonly specified for machine assembly, general engineering, plant maintenance and OEM equipment.
Mating Parts for M10
For M10, pair with a M10 hex nut (ISO 4032 / DIN 934) and, where used, a M10 flat washer (ISO 7089 / DIN 125A) under the head and under the nut.
When to Step Up or Down from M10
When the joint preload approaches the proof load of M10 class 8.8, step up to M12 class 8.8 (or move to M10 class 10.9). When the joint is over-specified, M8 often saves weight and cost without losing the safety margin.
