SAE J429

SAE J429 covers the mechanical and material requirements for inch series fasteners used in automotive and related industries in sizes to 1-1/2” inclusive.

Below is a basic summary of the most common grades. SAE J429 covers a number of other grades and grade variations not covered in this summary, including 4, 5.1, 5.2, 8.1, and 8.2.
