German term or phrase: Kopfschlagzähigkeit

The context is a bit limited unfortunately, as this only appears in a table of 'Mechanische und physikalische Eigenschaften' for threaded fasteners. The table shows the property in left-hand column (see below), with figures for each of the property classes on the right.
----
Festigkeit unter Schrägzugbelastung
Kerbschlagarbeit, KU

I found a couple of other hits for "Schlagzägigkeit", but apart from that have drawn a blank so far.

Thanks in advance for your ideas.

(fastener) head toughness [impact strength/resistance]

Explanation:
... on the basis of the typo assumption mentioned above.

See, for example, http://www.patentstorm.us/patents/6558484-description.html
"Each of the tapping bolts manufactured was subjected to a tensile test and a ***head toughness test***. The hardness, the effective depth of the hardened layer and the tapping ability of the bolt were evaluated from the results.

The tensile tests performed on the bolts were conducted using a wedge tensile tester in accordance with JIS B1051, with a wedge angle of 10° and the ***head toughness*** tests performed on the bolts were conducted in accordance with JIS B1055."

Notes to answerer

Asker: Thanks, that makes a lot of sense! I thought it could well be a typo. Unfortunately I was stuck on 'Zügigkeit', which made no sense at all!
