The M30 size of T-Slot Nuts (DIN 508) is dimensioned by DIN 508. The table below gives the dimensional row from the standard, followed by the drive and the installation notes for this type.
Values are taken from the governing standard rather than from a general machine-thread table, because this type is not selected on one.
M30 Dimensional Row (DIN 508)
| Size | T-slot width a (mm) | Nut width b (mm) | Total height h (mm) | Neck height k (mm) | Chamfer f (mm) | Reference standard |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| M30 | 36 | 54 | 44 | 22 | 6 | DIN 508 |
Spanner & Drive for M30 T-Slot Nuts (DIN 508)
Drive geometry for M30 T-Slot Nuts (DIN 508) is given by the row above; match the tool to the listed values.
Tightening Torque for M30
| Class 8.8 (dry, ~µ 0.125) | ≈ 1443 Nm |
|---|---|
| Class 10.9 (dry, ~µ 0.125) | ≈ 2055 Nm |
| Class 12.9 (dry, ~µ 0.125) | ≈ 2405 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
Nuts are graded to ISO 898-2 by the proof load the nut itself will hold (classes 04, 05, 5, 6, 8, 10 and 12), not by the 8.8 / 10.9 / 12.9 scale used for bolts. A class-8 nut is the correct mate for a class-8.8 bolt, and the joint is designed on the bolt, so no bolt-tension figure is quoted here.
Installation Tips for M30 T-Slot Nuts (DIN 508)
- 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
Pair M30 with the matching M30 bolt or screw, plus a M30 flat washer where required to distribute load on softer materials.
