HOW-TO
How to generate a hex head screw STEP / STL file
- 1Pick the thread size — head dimensions follow the standard automatically.
- 2Enter the length or tap a common length.
- 3Choose the thread mode: simplified for assemblies, modeled to see the thread, 3D-print for printing.
- 4Check the spec cards and any warnings.
- 5Download STEP, STL or 3MF — or send it to Orinovate for a quote.
What is a hex head screw (ISO 4017)?
Hex head screws are driven by a spanner or socket and take high torque, so they are the default bolt for structures, machinery and general assembly. ISO 4017 is fully threaded, with head height k ≈ 0.6–0.7d, a 30° chamfer on the top of the head and width across corners e ≈ 1.15s. The spec card lists the standard minimum e; the model uses the theoretical s / cos 30°.
ISO metric thread formulas
The ISO 68-1 basic profile is a 60° triangle with fundamental height H = 0.866P. Pitch diameter d2 = d − 0.6495P, internal minor D1 = d − 1.0825P, external minor d3 = d − 1.2269P, tensile stress area As = π/4 × ((d2 + d3)/2)². For M8 (P = 1.25): d2 = 7.188, D1 = 6.647, d3 = 6.466 mm, As = 36.6 mm². Modeled threads are right-handed and faceted into 36 planar segments per turn (error < 0.4 % of the diameter).

FAQ
What spanner fits an M8 hex bolt? ISO vs DIN?
The spanner size is the width across flats s: M5 8, M6 10, M8 13, M10 16, M12 18, M14 21, M16 24 mm (ISO 4017). Older DIN 933 / JIS use 17 for M10, 19 for M12 and 22 for M14 — check the standard when ordering.
ISO 4017 or ISO 4014?
ISO 4017 is threaded right up to the head — good for short screws and full-length clamping. ISO 4014 has a plain shank under the head, which is stronger in shear and works as a locating pin or pivot. This generator makes the fully threaded ISO 4017 version.
What size hole for an M3 screw? Which tap drill?
Tap drill ≈ nominal diameter − pitch: M3 → 2.5 mm, M4 → 3.3, M5 → 4.2, M6 → 5.0, M8 → 6.8, M10 → 8.5, M12 → 10.2 mm. For a clearance hole (ISO 273): M3 3.2 (fine) / 3.4 (medium), M4 4.3 / 4.5, M5 5.3 / 5.5, M6 6.4 / 6.6, M8 8.4 / 9 mm. The spec cards list both for the selected size.
What do property classes 8.8, 10.9 and 12.9 mean?
Per ISO 898-1 the first number × 100 is the nominal tensile strength in MPa and the product of both numbers × 10 the nominal yield strength. The specified minimums are slightly higher: 8.8 (d ≤ 16) = 800 / 640 MPa, 10.9 = 1040 / 940 MPa, 12.9 = 1220 / 1100 MPa. Socket cap screws are usually 12.9, general hex bolts 8.8. Minimum breaking load = tensile strength × stress area As; the spec cards show it for class 8.8.
Do 3D-printed threads work?
Yes, from about M6 up — a 0.4 mm FDM nozzle can barely resolve an M3 thread (0.5 mm pitch). Use the 3D-print mode (external thread shrunk 0.15 mm, internal enlarged 0.2 mm, adjustable), print screws standing up with ≤ 0.12 mm layers. For parts that are assembled often or loaded, heat-set inserts or a captive hex-nut pocket last far longer than printed threads.
Which software opens the hex head screw STEP file?
STEP (AP214) opens in Fusion 360, SolidWorks, FreeCAD, Onshape and Rhino. STL / 3MF import directly into Bambu Studio, PrusaSlicer or Cura.

About STEP / STL / 3MF / DXF
- STEP (.step / .stp, AP214) keeps exact dimensions and surfaces for editing in Fusion 360, SolidWorks or FreeCAD.
- STL and 3MF are triangle meshes that import directly into Bambu Studio, PrusaSlicer or Cura.
- DXF is the top-view 2D outline, ready for laser cutting, waterjet or CNC routing.
- All models are in millimetres at true scale.
