In construction and manufacturing, structural connections are the cornerstone of ensuring project stability and safety. And selecting the correct bolt grade is the key to ensuring this cornerstone is as solid as a rock.
We offer a variety of stainless steel bolts, each meticulously designed to ensure optimal structural connections for your project. Let’s explore the intricacies of these bolts together:
Grade 4.8 Bolt: These bolts are both economical and reliable, making them the preferred choice for wood or light steel structures. They bear the foundation of your project, making it sturdy and dependable.
Grade 8.8 Bolt: Offering higher strength and durability, suitable for applications requiring stronger connections, such as building structures and vehicle manufacturing. They are the backbone of your project, providing support and protection.
Grade 10.9 Bolt: Through careful heat treatment, these bolts have outstanding tensile strength, reaching 1000Mpa. They are reliable partners in your projects pushing the limits, supporting your creativity and dreams.
Grade 12.9 Bolt: Designed specifically for the most demanding applications, such as bridge structures, building steel structures, and large shipbuilding industries. These bolts are the guardians of your project, providing unbeatable strength.
Each bolt grade represents our commitment: to provide the best structural connection solutions for your project. Choose our bolts, and you’ll enjoy the peace of mind and confidence of a rock-solid foundation.
The difference between stainless steel bolts and graded bolts lies in their material and performance:
Material: Stainless steel bolts are typically made from stainless steel to provide corrosion resistance, making them more durable in damp or corrosive environments. Graded bolts, on the other hand, can be made from low carbon steel, medium carbon steel, or alloy steel, depending on the required strength and application.
Strength grade: Graded bolts are classified based on their tensile strength and other performance indicators, such as 4.8 grade, 8.8 grade, 10.9 grade, etc. These grades represent different materials and processing methods to achieve various strength and performance requirements. Stainless steel bolts, however, are usually not classified by grade but are distinguished based on the type and specifications of the stainless steel material.
Application: Stainless steel bolts are primarily used in applications requiring corrosion resistance, such as outdoor environments or chemical industries. Graded bolts are typically used in structural connections requiring specific strength and load capacity, such as construction, mechanical manufacturing, and other fields.
In summary, stainless steel bolts emphasize corrosion resistance and are suitable for damp or corrosive environments, while graded bolts emphasize strength and load capacity and are suitable for structural connections requiring specific strength grades.
