ASTM A193 B8M Class 2 Stud Bolt A194 Grade 8M Cl 2 Hex Nuts

A193 B8M Class 2 stud bolts refer to a specific type of fastener made according to ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials) standards.

B8M:

  • Grade B8M: Within ASTM A193, Grade B8M specifically refers to stainless steel bolts, studs, and other externally threaded fasteners made from austenitic stainless steel, typically type 316 stainless steel. This type of stainless steel offers excellent corrosion resistance, especially in marine environments and other corrosive environments containing chlorides.

Class 2:

  • Class 2: This refers to the specific heat treatment condition or mechanical properties of the fastener. In the context of stud bolts, Class 2 typically indicates a higher tensile strength and other mechanical properties compared to Class 1. Class 2 stud bolts are subjected to a solution annealing and strain-hardening heat treatment process to achieve the desired mechanical properties.

Characteristics and Applications:

A193 B8M Class 2 stud bolts are commonly used in applications requiring corrosion resistance, such as chemical processing, petroleum refining, and marine environments.

Grade B8M  is a stainless steel material grade for stud bot,known as AISI 316 stainless steel.

Class 2 indicates that the stud bolts are strain hardened and have higher tensile strength compared to ASTM A193 Grade B8M Class 1.

ASTM A193 B8M Class 2 Stud Bolt Characteristics and Applications:
  • Corrosion Resistance: Grade B8M stainless steel provides excellent resistance to corrosion, making it suitable for use in marine environments, chemical processing plants, and other applications where corrosion resistance is critical.
  • High-Temperature Service: ASTM A193 B8M Class 2 stud bolts are designed to withstand elevated temperatures typical in many industrial applications.
  • Mechanical Properties: Class 2 stud bolts have specific mechanical properties, including higher tensile strength and possibly improved toughness and ductility due to the heat treatment process.
ASTM A193 B8M Class 2 also short for ASTM A193 B8M Cl2 stud bolt
