The M30 size of Hex Head Bolt is dimensioned by GB/T 5782 / ISO 4014. The tables below give the dimensional row from the standard, the drill and spanner sizes that go with it, and the assembly torque per property class. The technical drawing on this page redraws to the exact values selected.
M30 Dimensional Row (GB/T 5782 / ISO 4014)
| Size | Pitch (mm) | Nominal diameter d (mm) | Length L (mm) | Width across flats s (mm) | Width across corners e (mm) | Head height k (mm) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| M30 | 3.5 | 30 | 180 | 46.0 | 50.85 | 18.7 |
Spanner & Drive for M30 Hex Head Bolt — GB/T 5782 / ISO 4014 (Series 007)
M30 Hex Head Bolt — GB/T 5782 / ISO 4014 (Series 007) have a width across flats of 46.0 mm — fit a 46.0 mm open-ended spanner or socket. Use a 6-point socket for tight clearances and to reduce rounding; for repeated assembly choose a torque wrench so the joint preload is repeatable.
Hole Sizes for M30
| Coarse-thread pitch (ISO 724) | 3.5 mm |
|---|---|
| Through-hole / clearance (ISO 273 medium) | 33 mm |
| Tapping drill, coarse thread | 26.5 mm |
Tightening Torque for M30
| Class 8.8 (dry, ~µ 0.125) | ≈ 1400 Nm |
|---|---|
| Class 10.9 (dry, ~µ 0.125) | ≈ 2000 Nm |
| Class 12.9 (dry, ~µ 0.125) | ≈ 2400 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 M30
| Tensile stress area As (ISO 898-1) | 561 mm² |
|---|---|
| Proof load, class 8.8 | 337 kN |
| Proof load, class 10.9 | 466 kN |
| Proof load, class 12.9 | 544 kN |
| Min. ultimate tensile, class 8.8 | 449 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.
M30 Hex Head Bolt — GB/T 5782 / ISO 4014 (Series 007) Weight
A steel M30 hex head bolt at the listed 180 mm length weighs approximately 1,268 g each — about 1,268 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 M30 Hex Head Bolt — GB/T 5782 / ISO 4014 (Series 007)
M30 Hex Head Bolt — GB/T 5782 / ISO 4014 (Series 007) are commonly specified for structural steelwork, heavy machinery foundations and large flange joints.
Installation Tips for M30 Hex Head Bolt — GB/T 5782 / ISO 4014 (Series 007)
- Use a 6-point socket where access allows — 12-point sockets are more prone to rounding the corners on smaller sizes.
- On flanged or serrated variants, do NOT add a separate flat washer — the flange already spreads the load and the washer can defeat the locking serrations.
- At M30 the stretch in the bolt becomes the controlling factor — for critical joints, use angle-controlled or stretch-controlled tightening instead of pure torque.
Mating Parts for M30
For M30, pair with a M30 hex nut (ISO 4032 / DIN 934) and, where used, a M30 flat washer (ISO 7089 / DIN 125A) under the head and under the nut.
