Scope

ISO 15480:2019 specifies the characteristics, principal dimensions and designation of hexagon washer head drilling screws with tapping screw thread, made of steel in product grade A and covering thread sizes ST2,9 to ST6,3. The standard provides normative references, definitions, dimensional tables, requirement references to other International Standards and rules for designation. It replaces ISO 15480:1999.

Key topics and requirements

• Definitions and terms specific to hexagon-washer-head drilling screws.
• Dimensional data for head, washer, shank and thread for sizes ST2,9 to ST6,3.
• Requirements and references to applicable product and test standards (quality/grade A requirements).
• Designation rules and marking information for ordering and identification.
• Replacement of the 1999 edition and alignment with EN adoption as EN ISO 15480:2019.

These topics follow the standard's clause structure (Scope; Normative references; Terms and definitions; Dimensions; Requirements and reference International Standards; Designation; Bibliography).

Typical use and users

Used by fastener manufacturers, component designers, mechanical and assembly engineers, procurement/specification writers, and quality/inspection teams who require standardized dimensions and designation rules for hexagon-washer-head self-drilling/tapping screws in product grade A. Standards bodies and conformity assessment organizations also use it when referencing or adopting harmonized national or regional variants.

Related standards

ISO 15480:2019 replaces ISO 15480:1999. It is published as an international ISO standard and has been endorsed/adopted as EN ISO 15480:2019 for use across CEN member countries. Related fastener standards and normative references are listed in clause 5 of the document (see the standard for the full bibliography).
