Metric Products with JIS Specification

The Japanese Industrial Standards Committee was formed in 1946, under the Japanese Standards Association (JSA). The Japanese Industrial Standards (JIS) specifies the standards used for industrial activities in Japan. The standardization process is coordinated by the Japanese Industrial Standards Committee and published through the Japanese Standards Association.
JIS standards cover industrial and mineral products, comparable to standards established by various industrial associations for specific needs, or standards established and used by companies


At The FCH Sourcing Network you will find hundreds of thousands of fasteners within our database of surplus, odd lot, slow-moving and hard to find fasteners that conform to the JIS specification.

Bolts & Cap Screws by JIS Specification - Hex bolts and hex cap screws feature a large fastener head for distributing clamping load. These fasteners are used at high tensions and temperatures. Cap screws have a washer face underneath the head and are used in precise applications.

Nuts by JIS Specification - Nuts, or mating fasteners, are available in hundreds of different shapes and sizes for any project or application. Varieties are normally hexagonal or square in shape, and have either coarse or fine internal threads that correspond to those of a mating bolt or screw.

Pins by JIS Specification - Pins are available in many varieties for specific jobs where additional strength is required to secure materials.

Screws by JIS Specification - Screws are one of the most versatile, useful types of fasteners, and are available in multiple sizes and styles. In different countries, and in different industries, there is some confusion in the distinction between screws and bolts. Some definitions of screws include the requirement that they be fully threaded, and these may also often be called Bolts.

Washers by JIS Specification - Washers are usually manufactured from thin plate (disk-shaped or square) with a hole to fit under the head of a fastener in order to distribute the load and increase the hold of the fastener by increasing the bearing surface.
