DIN 931 M16 × 160 Hexagon head

DIN 931 M16 × 160 is a hexagon head bolt with a 160 mm nominal length, on a M16 × 1.5 mm metric thread. Same head as DIN 933 but with an unthreaded shank under the head. The plain shank carries shear load, which is why these are preferred for structural steelwork and machinery frames.
