Socket Head Cap Screw Head Diameter?
Socket Head Cap Screw Head Diameter?
(OP)
We are working on some old equipment that has some 5/8" socket head screws that need replacing. We ordered new fasteners and the heads came in at the standard 0.938" diameter. The old fasteners we are replacing have a head diameter that is approx. 0.860". The counterbores in the part are sized accordingly so the new fasteners will not fit.
My question is, was there a change to the ANSI standards at some point to increase the head diameter or are these fasteners just non ANSI (i.e. produced in some non-ANSI abiding country)? Is it possible to buy a 5/8" sockete head cap screw with a smaller head diameter anywhere?

Now, can anyone point me to a chart specifying the head diameter of a 1936 Series socket head cap screw? I am being told that it is .860" by another internet surfer on the newsgroups.
