ASTM A194
The ASTM A194 specification covers carbon, alloy and stainless steel nuts intended for use in high-pressure and/or high-temperature service. Unless otherwise specified, the American National Standard Heavy Hex Series (ANSI B 18.2.2) shall be used. Nuts up to and including 1 inch nominal size shall be UNC Series Class 2B fit. Nuts over 1 inch nominal size shall be either UNC Series Class 2B fit or 8 UN Series Class 2B fit. High strength ASTM A194 grade 2H nuts are common in the marketplace and are often substituted for ASTM A563 grade DH nuts due to the limited availability of DH nuts in certain diameters and finishes.

| NOTES: 1. The markings shown for all grades of A194 nuts are for cold formed and hot forged nuts. When nuts are machined from bar stock, the nut must additionally be marked with the letter 'B'. The letters H and M indicate heat treated nuts. 2. Properties shown are those of coarse and 8-pitch thread heavy hex nuts. 3. Hardness numbers are Brinell Hardness. 4. Nuts that are carbide-solution treated require additional letter A - 8A or 8MA. 5. All nuts shall bear the manufacturer’s identification mark. Nuts shall be legibly marked on one face to indicate the grade and process of the manufacturer. Marking of wrench flats or bearing surfaces is not permitted unless agreed upon between manufacturer and purchaser. Nuts coated with zinc have an asterisk (*) marked after the grade symbol. Nuts coated with cadmium shall have a plus sign (+) marked after the grade symbol. 6. Other less common grades exist, but are not listed here. Inch Fastener Standards. 7th ed.

How-To Lower a Dirtbike With No Additional Parts by CheapCycleParts.com
https://goo.gl/8aAYt
Fact: dirt bikes rule. It’s just science. There’s nothing quite as fun as bopping down a trail or nailing your first double at the moto track. With nearly a foot of suspension travel, modern dirt bikes can really go anywhere.
Problem is, that copious amount of suspension travel means those that are, um, vertically challenged often find the seat height of many dirt bikes to be a bit overwhelming. The aftermarket provides various bolt-on items that can help lower the bike, but for those on a budget, is there any way to bring a super-tall dirt bike down to a height manageable by mere mortals? Why yes, yes there is. Read on.
Our test mule for this job is a Honda CRF230f. We know, we know. It isn’t the tallest bike in the world to begin with. But the owner of this machine tops out around five feet tall, so the principle remains.
To start the job, we’ll remove the seat, tank and side panels to gain access to the rear shock. Once complete, lowering the rear shock is simply a matter of relieving some of the bike’s factory-set preload. This is accomplished by loosening the locking collar. We backed it out roughly half an inch to start. Next up you simply back out spring nut to meet up with the locking nut. (Working with these spring collar nuts is best done using a good spanner wrench. If you don’t have one in your tool arsenal, get one. You’ll need it.) Once at your desired height, tighten up the locking nut and the rear suspension is done. Moving on to the front.
Before lowering the front suspension, we’ll need to unweight the forks. This can be done by placing the bike on a stand or lift. Next up, slightly loosen all of the fork pinch bolts to allow us to move the forks within the clamps. No need to completely back out these bolts. Just loosen them enough to allow some fork tube movement.
Next, lower the bike bike down onto the ground. This will keep the front wheel planted and aligned, and allow us to evenly move the forks up through the triple tree and lower clamp. Once lowered to the desired height, we simply retightened the pinch bolts.
And we’re done. We now have a slightly lowered dirt bike that retains plenty of suspension travel for the rooted and rocky trails CCP calls home. If you have any questions on this project or have another project you’d like us to cover, let us know on our Facebook page or our Youtube channel. See you on the trails!
