STAINLESS STEEL BOLTS 304 METRIC

Stainless steel 304 grade bolts are a common and versatile fastening solution known for their strong corrosion resistance in both internal and external environments, including coastal areas.

 
Key Characteristics and Applications
Material Composition: SS 304 grade (also known as A2 stainless steel) is composed of approximately 18-20% chromium and 8-12% nickel, which provides strong resistance to rust and common types of corrosion.
Applications: These bolts are ideal for general-purpose construction, engineering, and manufacturing. Common uses include retaining walls, gates and fences, pergolas, outdoor furniture, and other high-moisture or outdoor conditions where rust resistance is critical.
Suitability: They are suitable for general outdoor and coastal use but for applications requiring even higher resistance to corrosion, such as direct exposure to mineral salts or harsh marine environments, the 316-grade stainless steel is often recommended.
Standards: Many 304 stainless steel bolts are manufactured to international standards like DIN 931 (partially threaded) or DIN 933 (fully threaded/set screws).
