Tightening Torque for M5

Class 8.8 (dry, ~µ 0.125)≈ 5.8 Nm
Class 10.9 (dry, ~µ 0.125)≈ 8.1 Nm
Class 12.9 (dry, ~µ 0.125)≈ 9.7 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.

Common Applications for M5 Studs & Threaded Rods

M5 Studs & Threaded Rods are commonly specified for precision instruments, small machinery and consumer-electronics enclosures.

Installation Tips for M5 Studs & Threaded Rods

  • At M5 the joint is sensitive to over-torque — use a torque-limiting driver and check the head doesn't bury into a softer counterpart.

Mating Parts for M5

For M5, pair with a M5 hex nut (ISO 4032 / DIN 934) and, where used, a M5 flat washer (ISO 7089 / DIN 125A) under the head and under the nut.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the typical proof load behavior of M5 class 8.8?

Micro-thread joints are sensitive to plastic deformation in the first turn under load — use a torque-limiting driver and check the bearing surface deformation on softer mating materials.

What is the coarse-thread pitch of M5 for Studs & Threaded Rods?

For M5 the standard coarse pitch is 0.8 mm — this is the value used for Studs & Threaded Rods.

What torque do M5 class 8.8 Studs & Threaded Rods take?

A dry M5 class 8.8 joint takes about 5.8 Nm (≈ 8.1 Nm for 10.9, ≈ 9.7 Nm for 12.9). Confirm against your joint design; lubrication reduces these values.

What clearance and tapping drill suit M5?

Use a 5.5 mm clearance hole (ISO 273 medium) for through-fixing, or a 4.2 mm tapping drill for a coarse M5 thread.
