Frequently Asked Questions
What are Stainless Steel Fasteners?
Stainless steel fasteners are bolts, studs, nuts, threaded rods and other fastening components manufactured from stainless steel grades selected for corrosion resistance, mechanical performance and application requirements.
What is the difference between ASTM A193 B8 and B8M?
ASTM A193 B8 is generally associated with 304 stainless steel, while B8M is generally associated with 316 stainless steel. The appropriate grade depends on the required corrosion resistance, temperature, mechanical properties and project specification.
Should I choose 304 or 316 Stainless Steel?
The selection depends on the operating environment and application requirements. 316 stainless steel is commonly considered where greater corrosion resistance is required, particularly in chloride-containing environments.
