Hexagon head bolts, screws, and nuts of product Grade C are essential fasteners widely used in structural, mechanical, and general-purpose applications. These components are designed with a hexagonal head for easy wrench application and feature robust threads to provide strong connections.
Covering a size range from M 5 to M 64, these fasteners are suitable for medium-strength assemblies and offer reliable performance under varying load conditions. Grade C products are ideal for non-critical applications requiring durability and cost-effectiveness without compromising on functionality.
Introduction
The Bolts, Nuts, and Fasteners (Quality
Control) Order, 2023, issued by the Ministry
of Commerce and Industry (Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal
Trade), mandates BIS certification (ISI Mark) for hexagon head bolts,
screws, and nuts of product Grade C in the size range M 5 to M 64. This
certification ensures compliance with the requirements set forth in IS 1363 (Part 1): 2019, which governs
the dimensional and mechanical properties of these fasteners. BIS certification
provides assurance of quality, uniformity, and safety, making these products
suitable for diverse industrial and commercial applications. Manufacturers are
required to obtain this certification before marketing their products in India,
ensuring compliance with legal and quality standards while boosting customer
confidence in the product’s reliability.
Why is BIS Certification
Necessary for Hexagon Head Bolts?
BIS certification is essential for hexagon head bolts, screws, and nuts of product Grade C to ensure their conformity to established quality and safety standards. These fasteners play a crucial role in various industrial and structural applications, where reliability is non-negotiable. Certification under IS 1363 (Part 1): 2019 validates their dimensional accuracy, mechanical properties, and performance under load. The Bolts, Nuts, and Fasteners (Quality Control) Order, 2023 makes BIS certification mandatory, aiming to eliminate substandard products from the market and enhance overall safety. Non-compliance with this regulation invites penalties under the Bureau of Indian Standards Act, 2016, reinforcing the importance of adhering to certification norms. BIS certification not only ensures product quality but also fosters market trust and facilitates seamless integration into regulated sectors.
Overview of Indian
Standard IS 1363 (Part 1): 2019
IS 1363 (Part 1): 2019 specifies the
requirements for hexagon head bolts of product Grade C, focusing on their
dimensional characteristics, mechanical properties, and general performance.
The standard defines specifications for head dimensions, thread profiles, and
material strength, ensuring uniformity and reliability across products. It
covers bolts in the size range M 5 to M 64, suitable for medium-strength
applications. Testing methods for tensile strength, hardness, and durability
are also outlined, ensuring these fasteners meet the necessary performance
criteria. Compliance with IS 1363 (Part
1): 2019 is mandated under the Bolts,
Nuts, and Fasteners (Quality Control) Order, 2023, which aims to regulate
product quality and ensure safety in critical and non-critical applications.
The BIS
certification process for Hexagon Head Bolts, Screws and Nuts of product Grade
C Hexagon Head Bolts (Size Range M 5 to M 64) involves multiple steps, designed
to thoroughly evaluate a product's compliance with the required standards. Here
is a general overview of the certification process:
1. Application Submission: Manufacturers
must submit an application form along with required documentation to BIS.
2. Documentation Review: BIS reviews the
submitted documents to ensure completeness and correctness.
3. Factory Inspection: BIS officials
conduct an on-site inspection of the manufacturing facility to assess the
production process and quality control measures.
4. Sample Testing: Product samples are
taken and tested in BIS-approved laboratories to verify compliance with Indian
standards.
5. Certification Grant: Upon successful
completion of the inspection and testing, BIS grants certification, allowing
the manufacturer to use the BIS mark on their products.
To apply for BIS
certification, manufacturers need to submit the following documents:
● Application form
● Manufacturing process details
● Quality control plan
● Test reports from BIS-approved
laboratories
● Factory layout and equipment
details
● Proof of business registration
● Product specifications and
technical details
● Declaration of conformity to
Indian standards
Additionally, manufacturers may be required to provide proof of compliance with environmental and safety regulations, depending on the specific type of product being certified.
