For Castellated Hex Nut — GB/T 6180 / ISO 7036 (Series 048), ISO 7036 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.
ISO 7036 — Scope
ISO 7036 specifies the dimensions and tolerances of castellated hex nut — gb/t 6180 / iso 7036 (series 048). 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 7036, alongside the related GB/T 6180 / ISO 7036 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 Castellated Hex Nut — GB/T 6180 / ISO 7036 (Series 048) page. Always confirm against the dimensions on this page, since some "equivalent" standards differ in tolerances and head geometry.
When to Specify ISO 7036
Choose ISO 7036 for international engineering work and OEM supply where ISO standards are the contractual reference. It is the default modern specification for castellated hex nut — gb/t 6180 / iso 7036 (series 048).
