ASTM A325 and IS 3757 are standards that cover requirements for large hexagon, high strength structural steel bolts. Both standards have bolts and nuts with ISO metric threads and a tolerance class of 6g and 6H respectively. The key differences are that ASTM A325 has more stringent limits for carbon (0.28-0.55% max vs 0.55% max) and phosphorus (0.048% max vs 0.060% max). Additionally, ASTM A325 requires a tensile strength of 830 MPa and yield strength of 660 MPa, while IS 3757 requires 830 MPa tensile strength but a lower 640 MPa yield strength. The standards also specify
