Hex Nut manufactured to ISO 4032 are dimensioned by the size table reproduced on this page. The standard fixes geometry and tolerances only; material and property class are assigned by ISO 898-1/898-2, and surface finish by separate finish standards.
ISO 4032 — Scope
ISO 4032 specifies the dimensions and tolerances of hex nut — gb/t 6170 / iso 4032 (series 059). 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
ISO 4032, alongside the related GB/T 6170 / ISO 4032 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
ISO 4032 hex nuts correspond to DIN 934 (style 1).
When to Specify ISO 4032
Choose ISO 4032 for international engineering work and OEM supply where ISO standards are the contractual reference. It is the default modern specification for hex nut — gb/t 6170 / iso 4032 (series 059).
