Tolerances for coated metric screw threads.
Tolerances for coated metric screw threads.
(OP)
Can anyone direct me to the location of the relevant ISO standards for the tolerances applied to metric screw threads that are to be coated. Coating thickness can range from 15-31 microns per coated surface. We have two situations:-
1. Coating is applied to the screw only.
2. Coating is to be applied to both screw and nut.
Any advise on the correct tolerances would also be gladly received.
Thanks.

Try this one. Its there but you need to search.
RE: Tolerances for coated metric screw threads.
ISO 4014 Hexagon head bolts — Product grades A and B is a general product standard. It lists a tolerance of 6g. It allows for coating according to ISO 10683 Fasteners — Non-electrolytically applied zinc flake coatings, which can be a thick coating. This standard lists many thicknesses and tolerance classes that should help you.
General Motors has worldwide specifications like GMW 3302 Hexagon Bolts with Flange and Pilot Point – Heavy Series. It has a coating similar to ISO 10683 that can be up to 25 µm thick. GMW 3302 lists tolerance 6e before coating and post-coating gauging according to ISO 1502 IS0 general-purpose metric screw threads - Gauges and gauging with a GO-gauge of tolerance h.
Nuts are similar to screws. ISO 4032 Hexagon nuts, style 1 — Product grades A and B lists a tolerance of 6H, and allows for coating according to ISO 10683.
