MET'RIC
INFORMATION
USE OF METRIC AND CUSTOMARY NUTS,BOLTS AND SCREWS
Some of the 1977 model cars present special service requirements to the technician due to the use of both
metric and customary (inch) type nuts, bolts and screws on the same car. Many are metric and some are
very close in dimension t o customary nuts, bolts and screws in the inch system. Mismatched or incorrect
nuts, bolts and screws can result in damage, malfunction or possible personal injury. Nuts, bolts and screws
removed from the car should be saved for re-use whenever possible. If they are not re-usable, care should be
taken to select a replacement that matches the original.
General Motors Engineering Standards have adopted a portion of the standard metric fastener sizes defined
by S1 (Systeme International). This was done t o reduce the number of sizes used and yet retain the best
strength characteristics in each thread size. For example, the customary 1/4-20 and 1/4-28 screws are
replaced by the metric M6.3 x 1 screw which has nearly the same diameter and 25.4 threads per inch. The
thread pitch is in between the customary coarse and fine thread pitches.
Metric and customary thread notation differ slightly. The difference is illustrated below.

Care should be taken when servicing the car to guard against cross threading or improper retention due to
interchanged metric and inch nuts and bolts.
When obtaining metric or customary nuts, bolts, and screws locally for servicing the cax, care must be
exercised in selecting parts that are equivalent to the original parts in dimensions, strength, and pitch of
threads.

METRIC BOLT AND NUT IDENTIFICATION

Common metric fastener strength property classes are 9.8 and 10.9 with the class identification
embossed on the head of each bolt. Customary (inch) strength classes range from grade 2 to 8 with
line identification embossed on each bolt head. Markings correspond to two lines less than the
actual grade (i.e. grade 7 bolt will exhibit 5 embossed lines on the bolt head). Some metric nuts will
be marked with single digit strength identification numbers on the nut face. The following figure
illustrates the different strength markings.

GRADE 2

GRADE 5

(GM 2 0 S M )

( G M 280-M)

GRADE 7
( G M 290-M)

GRADE 8
(GM 300-M)

Customary (inch) bolts - ldentification marks correspond to bolt

strength - lncreasing numbers represent increasing strength.

Metric Bolts - ldentification class numbers correspond to bolt

strength - lncreasing numbers represent increasing strength.
