ISO 4034 is the governing dimensional standard for hex nut. This page sets out the scope of the standard, reproduces the full size table it specifies, and lists the DIN/ISO/ASME cross-references commonly cited in datasheets and drawings.
ISO 4034 — Scope
ISO 4034 is "Fasteners — Hexagon regular nuts (style 1) — Product grade C". The product grade C document; grades A and B are ISO 4032.
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
ISO 4034 is written to product grade C; a different grade of the same part is a different document in the family, not a variant of this one.

Equivalent Standards
Where direct equivalents exist (ISO ↔ DIN, ISO ↔ ASME), they are listed on the parent Hex Nut — GB/T 41 / ISO 4034 (Series 060) page.
Always confirm against the dimensions on this page, since some "equivalent" standards differ in tolerances and head geometry.
When to Specify ISO 4034
Choose ISO 4034 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 41 / iso 4034 (series 060).
Custom manufacturing · Made to drawing
Need a nut to this standard in a non-standard size?
Parts built to ISO 4034 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 tapping.
Minimum order from 2,000 pieces; samples within 7 days of drawing approval.
