Socket Head Cap Screw manufactured to GB/T 70.1 are dimensioned by the size table reproduced on this page. The standard fixes geometry and tolerances only; material and property class are assigned by separate documents, and surface finish by separate finish standards.
GB/T 70.1 — Scope
GB/T 70.1 is "Hexagon socket head cap screws". GB/T 70 1 is the Chinese national adoption of the same document. The metric socket cap screw; the closely related DIN 912 covers the same form.
Material, property class, surface finish and packaging are governed by separate documents — ISO 898-1 and ISO 898-2 for mechanical property classes, ISO 4042 for electroplated finishes.
Tolerance & Product Grades
GB/T 70.1 does not divide socket head cap screw — gb/t 70.1 / iso 4762 (series 014) into product grades. Tolerances are given as limits on the individual dimensions in the table.
Where a general-tolerance class is cited on the drawing instead, it applies to the dimensions not otherwise toleranced.

Equivalent Standards
Where direct equivalents exist (ISO ↔ DIN, ISO ↔ ASME), they are listed on the parent Socket Head Cap Screw — GB/T 70.1 / ISO 4762 (Series 014) page.
Always confirm against the dimensions on this page, since some "equivalent" standards differ in tolerances and head geometry.
When to Specify GB/T 70.1
Choose GB/T 70.1 for international engineering work and OEM supply where ISO standards are the contractual reference. It is the default modern specification for socket head cap screw — gb/t 70.1 / iso 4762 (series 014).
Custom manufacturing · Made to drawing
Need a screw to this standard in a non-standard size?
Parts built to GB T 70 1 are already in the catalog, so a special is usually a variation on existing tooling rather than a new design — which is what keeps the cost down. Made by cold heading or warm forging.
Minimum order from 2,000 pieces; samples within 7 days of drawing approval.
