This product page details the specifications, features, and advantages of our premium M10 hex bolt series.
Product Overview
Our M10 Hex Bolts are high-performance fasteners characterized by their six-sided (hexagonal) head, which allows for high torque application with standard tools. The "M10" designation refers to the metric thread diameter of 10 millimeters, a widely used and versatile size in industrial applications. These bolts are manufactured from high-grade steel and undergo rigorous quality control to ensure consistent thread pitch, head dimensions, and mechanical properties. They are available in various grades, finishes, and lengths to suit a broad spectrum of clamping requirements, from light-duty fixtures to critical structural joints.
Key Features
- Precision Engineering: Manufactured to ISO 4014/4017 and DIN 933/931 standards, guaranteeing consistent and accurate hex bolt m10 dimensions for global compatibility.
- High-Strength Material: Made from Grade 8.8, 10.9, or 12.9 alloy steel, offering superior tensile strength and yield point for demanding applications.
- Corrosion Resistance: Available with multiple finish options including zinc plating (blue/white), hot-dip galvanizing, and geomet coatings for enhanced durability in various environments.
- Full Thread & Partial Thread: Offered in both fully threaded (set screw) and partially threaded (bolt) styles to provide flexibility for specific clamping and shear load needs.
- Excellent Wrenchability: The hexagonal head design ensures a firm grip, preventing tool slippage and allowing for efficient installation and removal.

FAQ
Q1: What is the exact wrench size for a standard M10 hex bolt?
A: The standard wrench size (across flats dimension) for an M10 hex bolt head is 17mm. This is a critical part of the hex bolt m10 dimensions for tool selection.
Q2: What is the difference between DIN 933 and DIN 931 M10 bolts?
A: DIN 933 refers to a fully threaded hex bolt (also called a hex set screw), while DIN 931 refers to a partially threaded hex bolt with an unthreaded shank under the head. The choice depends on whether the application requires clamping force along the entire length (933) or benefits from a shear-resistant shank section (931).
Q3: Can you provide M10 hex bolts with different thread pitches?
A: Yes. While the standard coarse pitch is 1.5mm, we can supply M10 bolts with a fine pitch (e.g., 1.25mm) for applications requiring finer adjustment or where vibration resistance is a higher priority. Please specify your requirement.
Q4: How do I choose between Property Class 8.8, 10.9, and 12.9?
A: This depends on the required tensile strength and application:
- 8.8: General purpose, most common for structural and machinery.
- 10.9: High strength, used in automotive and high-stress dynamic loads.
- 12.9: Alloy steel, highest strength for critical, high-pressure applications. Not recommended for use in high-vibration environments without proper design.
Q5: What packaging options are available for export?
A: We offer export-ready packaging including 25kg/50lb master cartons, 1-ton pallet boxes, or custom packaging with your labeling. All packages are sealed and protected to prevent corrosion during transit.
