How to read it

|---|---|
| ASNA0342 Standard | Blind bolt with pulled stem and locking collar (MAXIBOLT type), titanium. Head: protruding cylindrical head (figure: round).Unit of the code: None: the number of the standardFrom: The standard |
| T Material | Titanium (the standard does not print what the letter stands for)Unit of the code: Letter, no unitFrom: Letter printed by the standard; its meaning is not printed |
| 05 Diameter | 5/32 in nominal: 5 × 1/32 in (0.156 in · 3.969 mm, our conversion); body diameter 0.163 in · 4.14 mm; hole 0.164–0.167 in · 4.16–4.24 mm (mm by context); deburr diameter, max 0.190 in · 4.83 mm (mm by context).Unit of the code: 1/32 in, by the inch dash logic (the unit of the code is not printed); inch and mm values are our conversionFrom: Diameter and hole table (Dimensions by size, above) |
| 06 Grip | 6/16 in = 3/8 in nominal grip; stack 0.344–0.407 in · 8.74–10.34 mm.Unit of the code: 1/16 in steps, nominal grip (inch dash logic); the range is printed in mmFrom: Grip table (Part numbers, above) |

Worked example. ASNA0342T0506 reads: ASNA0342 titanium Maxibolt-type blind bolt, protruding cylindrical head · T titanium · 05 5/32 in, hole 4.16–4.24 mm, drill #19 · 06 3/8 in, stack 8.74–10.34 mm · option standard supply.
From a measured hole or stack to the code
- Hole to diameter code. Measure the hole and take the code whose hole range holds it, never the nominal: 05 → 4.16–4.24 · 06 → 5.05–5.13 · 08 → 6.60–6.68 mm.
- Stack to grip code. Measure the total thickness to be joined with a grip gauge and take the code whose range holds it, for that diameter: a 9.50 mm stack with diameter 05 → grip 06 (8.74–10.34 mm).
If a segment is missing
- Without the standard number the codes cannot be read: grip code 04 is 4.78–6.35 mm on ASNA0077/0078, 5.56–7.16 mm on ASNA0026/0027, 5.59–7.14 mm on ASNA0081/0082.
- No material letter: the number is incomplete; a default is not given by the standard.
- No diameter or grip code: the number names the family only, not a part; a default size is not given by the standard.
- No grip code: the number is incomplete; a default grip is not given by the standard.
- No R: standard supply; R is a procurement letter for the same fastener supplied without the anvil.

| Gap under the head | Not more than 0.004 in (0.10 mm, printed in mm). Protruding head: on no more than 10 % of the row and never on 2 consecutive fasteners. Countersunk head: over no more than half the periphery, on no more than 20 % of the row, never on 2 consecutive |
| Countersunk head flush | Ideal 0; accepted +0.05 / −0.10. Unit not stated (the other tolerances on the sheet are mm): not converted |
| Stem flush B (on the break) | code 04: ±0.010 in (±0.25 mm); code 05: ±0.010 in (±0.25 mm); code 06: ±0.010 in (±0.25 mm); code 08: ±0.015 in (±0.38 mm). Millimetres printed and stated |
| Collar flush A (never proud) | code 04: 0 / −0.015 in (−0.38 mm); code 05: 0 / −0.017 in (−0.43 mm); code 06: 0 / −0.022 in (−0.56 mm); code 08: 0 / −0.029 in (−0.74 mm). Millimetres printed and stated |
| Collar | Must never stand beyond the stem after the break; check that it is present |

Notes from the standard
- Part number: ASNA0342 + material letter T + diameter code (04, 05, 06 or 08) + grip code (01 to 16) + optional R.
- The standard does not print what the letter T stands for; it is read as titanium. Grip rows 01 (0.093–0.157 in) and 02 (0.120–0.157 in) overlap and carry no diameter label. Stem heads carry three marks: material left, maker top, grip lower right.
- The body is bigger than the nominal fraction: code 05 is 5/32 in nominal (0.156 in) but 0.163 in at the body, and the hole is 0.164–0.167 in. Drill from the hole table, never from the nominal.
- Protruding head: deburr the hole edge, up to the largest deburr diameter of the table. The countersink never goes through the sheet: a straight bore of at least 0.008 in (0.2 mm, printed in mm) remains.
- The Maxibolt grip code n is shifted 1/32 in against the Cherry-type codes (code 04 is 0.219–0.282 in here, 0.188–0.250 in on CherryMAX). Lengths in work documents are indicative: measure the stack with a grip gauge.
- Units: no mark = printed in mm and stated by the standard. † = printed with no unit; the inch value is our conversion, reading the figure as mm. Nominal Ø is our reading of the inch code (1/32 in for diameters, 1/16 in for grips). Drill: from the site drill chart, inside the hole range.
- The number structure is printed for ASNA0341 only; the same structure is assumed for this standard.
