This page covers M36 Hex Head Bolt to GB/T 5782 / ISO 4014: the full dimensional row, hole and tool sizes, proof-load data and typical applications. All values are taken from the governing standards (GB/T 5782 / ISO 4014 together with ISO 273, ISO 724 and ISO 898-1 where applicable).
M36 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) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| M36 | 4.0 | 36 | 200 | 55.0 | 60.79 | 22.5 |
Spanner & Drive for M36 Hex Head Bolt — GB/T 5782 / ISO 4014 (Series 007)
M36 Hex Head Bolt — GB/T 5782 / ISO 4014 (Series 007) have a width across flats of 55.0 mm — fit a 55.0 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 M36
| Coarse-thread pitch (ISO 724) | 4 mm |
|---|---|
| Through-hole / clearance (ISO 273 medium) | 39 mm |
| Tapping drill, coarse thread | 32 mm |
Tightening Torque for M36
| Class 8.8 (dry, ~µ 0.125) | ≈ 2450 Nm |
|---|---|
| Class 10.9 (dry, ~µ 0.125) | ≈ 3450 Nm |
| Class 12.9 (dry, ~µ 0.125) | ≈ 4150 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 M36
| Tensile stress area As (ISO 898-1) | 817 mm² |
|---|---|
| Proof load, class 8.8 | 490 kN |
| Proof load, class 10.9 | 678 kN |
| Proof load, class 12.9 | 792 kN |
| Min. ultimate tensile, class 8.8 | 654 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.
M36 Hex Head Bolt — GB/T 5782 / ISO 4014 (Series 007) Weight
A steel M36 hex head bolt at the listed 200 mm length weighs approximately 2,061 g each — about 2,061 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 M36 Hex Head Bolt — GB/T 5782 / ISO 4014 (Series 007)
M36 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 M36 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 M36 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 M36
For M36, pair with a M36 hex nut (ISO 4032 / DIN 934) and, where used, a M36 flat washer (ISO 7089 / DIN 125A) under the head and under the nut.
