Metric DIN 976 Fully Threaded Stud Bolts are headless bolts threaded all the way from one end to the other (full / all
thread). They are designed for a nut to be applied on both ends and are often used for electrical, construction and plumbing
for hanging purposes. Aspen Fasteners offers one of the most complete ranges of metric studs and other inch and metric
industrial fasteners for immediate delivery from stock. The following sizes of metric DIN 976 Fully Threaded Stud Bolts are
available for immediate shipping from stock: Diameters ranging from M2 to M52 and lengths to 1000mm in A2 and marine
grade A4 stainless steel. View parts by clicking on the following link: DIN 976 stud bolts

DIN (Deutsches Institut für Normung - German Institute for Standardization) standards are issued for a variety of
components including industrial fasteners as Metric DIN 939 double end studs. The DIN standards remain common in
Germany, Europe and globally even though the transition to ISO standards is taking place. DIN standards continue to be
used for parts which do not have ISO equivalents or for which there is no need for standardization.

1) Mechanical properties of stainless steel for metric DIN 976 Fully Threaded Stud Bolts

Stainless steels can be divided into three groups of steel - austenitic, ferritic and martensitic. Austenitic steel is by
far the most common type (>90% of commercial fasteners). The steel groups and strength classes are designated by a
four-digit sequence of letters and numbers (eg A2-70) as shown in the following table. DIN EN ISO 3506 governs screws
and nuts made from stainless steel.
