Overview
prEN ISO 2702 (ISO/DIS 2702:2019) is a CEN draft standard for fasteners - heat-treated steel self-tapping screws that defines mechanical and physical properties and associated test methods. It covers screws with thread sizes ST2,2 to ST9,5 (per ISO 1478) and specifies requirements for surface and core hardness, case-hardened depth, microstructure, thread-forming ability and torsional strength. Note: the CEN work item status (2020-03-29) indicates the WI was abandoned following cancellation of the equivalent ISO WI - check your national body for the latest publication status.
Key topics and technical requirements
- Scope and materials: Applies to self-tapping screws made of steel suitable for case hardening.
- Surface hardness: Minimum surface hardness after heat treatment 450 HV0,3 (Vickers).
- Core hardness: Core hardness after heat treatment 270–370 HV5 for threads ≤ ST3,9 and 270–370 HV10 for threads > ST3,9.
- Case-hardened depth (CHD): CHD limits are defined by thread size (values specified in the standard’s table). CHD is determined by micro-Vickers hardness plots perpendicular to the surface.
- Microstructure: Metallographic examination must show no band of free ferrite between the case and the core.
- Thread-forming ability: Screws must form mating threads in a test plate without deforming their own thread (drive test).
- Torsional strength: Minimum breaking torque values are provided per thread size (example range: 0.45 Nm for ST2,2 up to 68.0 Nm for ST9,5).
- Test methods: Includes detailed procedures - Vickers hardness testing (ISO 6507-1), microhardness profiling, drive test (specified plate material, hardness and hole sizes), torsional test apparatus and torque-measuring device accuracy.
Applications and users
This standard is primarily used by:
- Fastener manufacturers for production control and heat-treatment process specification.
- Quality laboratories and inspection teams for acceptance and referee testing.
- OEMs, procurement/specification engineers and designers requiring verified mechanical properties for tapping screws used in metal assemblies.
- Coating and surface-treatment suppliers to understand responsibilities for post-delivery coating effects on drive or torsional performance.
Practical benefits include consistent production quality, repeatable test procedures (Vickers hardness, drive test, torsion), and clear acceptance criteria for heat-treated tapping screws.

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
