ISO 4014 vs 4017 Difference: Partial vs Full Thread Hex Bolts

4014 vs 4017 in one table—partial vs full thread, DIN cousins, and how to RFQ or shop metric 304 hex heads.

ISO 4014 vs 4017 — quick answer

They are not drop-in substitutes. Wrong choice changes grip length and how the joint carries load.

How to tell 4014 from 4017 on a drawing or part

  • ISO 4017 / DIN 933: thread runs to the underside of the hex head (or nearly). There is no usable unthreaded shank for grip.
  • ISO 4014 / DIN 931: a smooth shank sits under the head; threads start after a defined thread length. The shank diameter is close to the major thread diameter.
  • If the print lists thread length b shorter than length L, you almost certainly need 4014. If it says “fully threaded” or L is short enough that b ≈ L, you need 4017.

Pisenfasten’s published hex catalog is the 4017 / DIN 933 family in 304 / A2-70. Partial-thread 4014 / DIN 931 is quoted from production—do not assume a full-thread SKU will replace a shank bolt.

Why ISO 4014 vs 4017 matters on the PO

Ordering 4017 when the joint needs a shank (4014) changes:

  1. Grip length in the clamped parts
  2. Shear across the unthreaded section
  3. Stack-up with washers and nut engagement

Always match thread length / shank to the print before you buy.

A: Only with engineering approval.

Q: Do you stock 304 stainless hex heads?
A: Yes for the full-thread line—hex head screws.
