4 By Order of the Federal Agency for Technical Regulation and Metrology No. 401-st dated May 25, 2016, the interstate standard GOST EN 28839-2015 was put into effect as a national standard of the Russian Federation on January 1, 2018.

5 This standard is identical to the European regional standard EN 28839:1991* “Mechanical Properties of Fasteners. Bolts, Screws, Studs and Nuts Made of Non-Ferrous Metals” (“Mechanical properties of fasteners - Bolts, screws, studs and nuts made of non-ferrous metals”, IDT).


  • Access to international and foreign documents referenced in the text can be obtained by contacting the User Support Service. - Database producer’s note.

The European regional standard is identical to the international standard ISO 8839:1986, developed by Technical Committee ISO/TC 2 “Fasteners” of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO).

When applying this standard, it is recommended to use, instead of the referenced international standards, the corresponding interstate standards, information on which is given in Additional Annex DA
