Manufacturer of ASME SA 574 Hex, Anchor, Flange, Tap and A574m Lag Bolts
ASTM A574 - 17
Standard Specification for Alloy Steel Socket-Head Cap Screws
ASTM A574 specification covers the requirements for quenched and tempered alloy steel socket-head cap screws. ASTM A574 screws shall be fabricated from steel made to fine grain practice and shall be alloy steel conforming to the chemical composition specified. Different tests shall be conducted in order to determine the following mechanical properties of screws: tensile or wedge strength, proof load, yield strength, elongation, Rockwell hardness, and Vickers hardness.
ASTM A574 bolts can be used for many different applications that include fastening wood, steel, and other construction materials for projects such as docks, bridges, highway structures, and buildings. ASTM A574 Hex Bolts and ASTM A574 Hex Head Bolts is some of the toughest fasteners. These ASME SA574 sturdy fasteners are used to connect heavy materials.

1. ASTM A574 Scope
1.1 ASTM A574 specification covers the requirements for quenched and tempered alloy steel hexagon socket-head cap screws, 0.060 through 4 in. in diameter where high strength is required.
1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.
1.3 The following hazard caveat pertains only to the test method portions, sections 5.1, 5.6, 8, and 12, of this specification. This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
