Hobson BH88GCM120030 M12 x 30mm Metric Hex Bolt, G8.8, Galvanised

This page lists 4 Hobson metric hex bolt items (G8.8, galvanised): M12, in lengths of 30 to 50mm. A hex bolt has a hexagonal head and a threaded shank, and is fitted with a nut or screwed into a tapped hole.

Hobson lists class 8.8 as high tensile, and its class and grade chart pairs class 8.8 with imperial grade 5 (manufacturer-stated).

The supplier names these items G8.8; in the Hobson chart the matching name is class 8.8.

The pitch shown for each size is the coarse pitch given in the Hobson thread table (manufacturer-stated).

Spanner sizes are the width across flats (A/F) from the Hobson spanner chart, using its class 4.6/8.8 column (manufacturer-stated).

Pack quantity is shown for each item.

Common specifications

Key specifications

Selecting the right option

Choose the thread form first: the bolt and its nut must match in thread form, diameter and pitch. Metric sizes are the nominal diameter in millimetres; compare the pitch shown for each item with your nut. Length is measured from under the head to the end of the bolt, so choose size and length together. Strength figures are the minimum tensile strengths for the class or grade and size range in the Hobson guide, which is a head-marking table, so treat them as the class or grade minimum and not a test result for the bolt (manufacturer-stated). Spanner size is the width across flats of the head and nut, from the Hobson spanner chart.
