ISO 10683:2014 specifies requirements for non-electrolytically applied zinc flake coatings for steel fasteners. It applies to coatings: with or without hexavalent chromium; with or without top coat; with or without lubricant (integral lubricant and/or subsequently added lubricant). It applies to bolts, screws, studs and nuts with ISO metric thread, to fasteners with non-ISO metric thread, and to non-threaded fasteners such as washers, pins, clips, etc. ISO 10683:2014 does not specify requirements for such fastener properties as weldability or paintability. It does not apply to mechanically applied zinc coatings.
