M5 Cross Drilled Head SHCS-Do they Exist?
M5 Cross Drilled Head SHCS-Do they Exist?
(OP)
I have searched the net and came up empty. I am looking for a M5 stainless SHCS, or hex head, with a cross drilled head for safety wire that is covered under a standard. I don't care which standard, ISO, DIN, etc. I found that the ANSI B18.3.1M standard has provision for a drilled head metric SHCS, but the part number is not readily available (B1831DH050050D: M5x50 A1-70 Drilled head). Do they not use safety wire secured fasteners in Europe?
Thanks,
Casey

Only 30mm max, but custom stuff available (apparently?).

I'm not aware of standard ISO or DIN SHCS that are pre-drilled for safety wire in the head. There are aerospace standards that specify safety wire holes, but not general industry. There are a number of companies that specialize in taking standard fasteners and quickly modifying them to customer requirements. Bossard is one such European company.
