Specification summary of ISO 7380 as applied to button head socket screws: the dimensions the standard controls, the tolerance and product grades it defines, the full specified size range, and the equivalent DIN/ISO/ASME designations.
ISO 7380 — Scope
ISO 7380 specifies the dimensions and tolerances of button head socket screws. 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 7380, alongside the related ISO 7380 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.

When to Specify ISO 7380
Choose ISO 7380 for international engineering work and OEM supply where ISO standards are the contractual reference. It is the default modern specification for button head socket screws.
