The ASTM A193 B8M covers standard material specifications for high strength bolt. These ASTM A193 B8M Bolts strongly affix different materials in place for long periods. These bolt come under the 316/316L grade specifications. B8m stainless steel bolts are designed with an outstanding chemical content of chromium, nickel, molybdenum, and other constituting alloys. This gives the B8m bolt good tolerance against high temperature conditions and in corrosive environments.
The A193 b8m material is manufactured with the best mechanical properties. The material has a minimum yield strength of 95ksi with a minimum tensile strength of 110ksi. The B8m bolt and nuts have a hardness of 35 HRC max and can be elongated by 15%. These devices have a minimum reduction area of 45%.
The ASTM A193 Grade B8m Machine Bolt are classified into classes 1 and 2. The bolt in class 1 are carbide solution treated, while class 2 bolts are carbide solution treated and strain hardened. The SA 193 B8m Anchor Bolt are utilized to hold concrete structures in place efficiently. Apart from this, they are also a feature in non-structural elements. B8m heavy hex bolt are designed to handle heavy loads and pressures. They are designed with a hexagonal cross section and have unique movements. The A193 Gr B8m Square Bolt were replaced by the hexagonal head bolt. Today square bolt are primarily selected for their rustic look and aesthetical factors. ASTM B8m Flange Bolt are used to hold flanges in place and are fixated using bolt.
