For Clamping Handle Screw (Medium) — DIN 6336 / GN 313 (Series 043), GN 313 defines dimensions, tolerances and product grades. The sections below describe its scope, what it does NOT cover, and the equivalents across DIN, ISO and ASME.
GN 313 — Scope
GN 313 specifies the dimensions and tolerances of clamping handle screw (medium) — din 6336 / gn 313 (series 043). Material, property class, surface finish and packaging are governed by separate documents in the same standards family (for example ISO 898-1 for the mechanical property classes of bolts and screws).
Tolerance & Product Grades
GN 313, alongside the related DIN 6336 / GN 313 entries on this site, specifies product grades (typically A or B for fine work and C for general engineering) and tolerance classes for the controlling dimensions. Choose the grade against the precision your application requires.

Equivalent Standards
Where direct equivalents exist (ISO ↔ DIN, ISO ↔ ASME), they are listed on the parent Clamping Handle Screw (Medium) — DIN 6336 / GN 313 (Series 043) page. Always confirm against the dimensions on this page, since some "equivalent" standards differ in tolerances and head geometry.
When to Specify GN 313
Choose GN 313 for international engineering work and OEM supply where ISO standards are the contractual reference. It is the default modern specification for clamping handle screw (medium) — din 6336 / gn 313 (series 043).
