ISI / BIS Certification for Hexagon Head Screw (Size ranges from M 5 to 64)

The M 5 to 64 size range of hexagon head screws makes them a highly adaptable and essential fastener for a variety of mechanical and building applications. The hexagonal head form of these screws makes them easy to identify and tighten with a wrench or socket. Hexagon head screws are appropriate for a wide range of applications, including small-scale undertakings like assembling electronics and large-scale ones like building infrastructure and buildings. When combined with suitable nuts and washers, the hexagon head shape offers a stable grip and facilitates effective torque application, guaranteeing a strong and dependable connection.

The quality and performance of these screws are guaranteed since they are made in accordance with industry standards and requirements. Their significance in connecting, fastening, and sustaining structures and systems across several sectors makes them essential basic elements in the field of fasteners and mechanical engineering. The standards for hexagon head screws with a size range of M 5 to M 64 are outlined in IS 1363 (Part 2):2018. Adherence to this standard aids producers in creating screws that fulfill certain quality standards, enhancing the dependability and security of goods and constructions that use these fasteners. Producers that follow these guidelines make sure their goods meet legal requirements, which lowers the possibility of legal problems and liabilities.

Note: In order to manufacture hexagon head screws in the M 5–M 64 size range, manufacturers must get the necessary ISI Mark Certification.

The ISI certification serves as an essential guarantee for the accuracy, dependability, and security of these essential fasteners, which are widely used in a wide range of industries, such as the manufacturing, construction, and automotive sectors. It guarantees the strength, precision, and dependability of these screws over the designated size range by ensuring that the right materials and production techniques are used throughout their creation. With this certification, you can be sure that these fasteners are made in accordance with safety and performance requirements, which lowers the possibility of structural failure or malfunction in a variety of applications.

About ISI / BIS Certification

Indian Standards Institute, or ISI was renamed the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) in 1987. The official mark that the Bureau of Indian Standards provides for manufacturers of various goods is the ISI Mark. It is used to indicate compliance with Indian standards (IS) set by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) and has been used as a conformity marking for industrial products. Manufacturers received permission from BIS to use the ISI Mark on items that comply with relevant Indian requirements through the product certification program. 

Only manufacturers (domestic or foreign) who produce the finished product will be awarded ISI Certification. This will not be given to any product importers, traders, dealers, or distributors.

Process of ISI / BIS Certification

There are two approaches for Indian manufacturers to become certified with the ISI Mark:

• Regular Procedure
• Simplified Procedure 

Regular Procedure

With the possible exception of cases deemed "All India first," which might take up to 180 days, the licensing procedure is expected to be finished in 120 days. This timeline starts on the day the application is received, assuming that at different points in time the documentation, unit assessment, and product conformance are all deemed acceptable.

Step 1: Manufacturing Unit Customization in Compliance with Applicable Indian Standards

• Identifying the applicable Indian Standard
• Establishing in-house testing facilities as per the Standard's requirements

Step 2: Submission of the Application Form

• Preparing an Internal Test Report for the product by the relevant Indian Standard
• Compiling all necessary documents
• Completing the Online Application Form
• Online payment of application fees directly to BIS
• Submitting hard copies of the Application Form with all enclosures to the relevant Branch Office (BO) of BIS

Simplified Procedure

This is a much faster process than the standard procedure. After a factory inspection is deemed satisfactory and the initial evaluation establishes that the sample complies with the applicable Indian Standard(s), the license application process is expected to be finished in 30 days.

Step 1: Adapting the Manufacturing Unit to Comply with the Relevant Indian Standard

• Identifying the applicable Indian Standard
• Establishing in-house testing facilities to meet the Standard's requirements

Step 2: Sample Testing

• Obtaining the necessary certificate for raw materials (Material Test Certificate - MTC)
• Conducting product sample testing at a BIS-recognized testing laboratory
