Overview
DIN 608 is a countersunk head bolt that is also known as a plowman bolt. It is a reliable fastener that can withstand high loads. It consists of a rod with a metric thread and a countersunk head with a square header underneath that prevents spontaneous loosening, making the connection more reliable and stronger.
Strength class DIN 608
The DIN 608 strength class of a bolt is the maximum applied force at which the bolt begins to fracture. DIN 608 bolts are manufactured in strength classes from 8.8 to 10.9. From strength class 8.8, the bolt is considered high-strength.
High-strength DIN 608 should be purchased only from trusted suppliers. It is made of alloy steel and such bolts are used for critical projects where, in addition to high loads and static loads, the DIN 608 bolt is subjected to constant vibration. Such bolts will be especially relevant in bridge construction, instrumentation, and in structures that are located near objects subject to vibration.
