Grade B8 Stainless Hex Cap Screws

A Grade B8 hex head cap screw, sometimes referred to as a Grade B8 bolt, is a high-strength fastener made from corrosion-resistant stainless steel. Grade B8 is specifically designed to offer excellent resistance to corrosion and chemical exposure, making it suitable for use in various industries, including chemical processing, petrochemical, and marine applications. Key characteristics of Grade B8 hex head cap screws include: Material: These screws are typically made from austenitic stainless steel alloys, such as AISI 304 or AISI 316, known for their corrosion resistance properties. Corrosion Resistance: Grade B8 fasteners are highly resistant to corrosion, making them suitable for use in environments where exposure to moisture, chemicals, or saltwater is a concern. Strength: They offer good tensile strength and reliability while also providing corrosion resistance. Thread Design: These screws typically feature UNC (Unified National Coarse) threads and hexagonal heads for easy installation with wrenches or sockets. Grade B8 hex head cap screws are commonly used in applications where corrosion resistance is crucial, and maintaining the integrity of fasteners in harsh or corrosive environments is essential for safety and performance.
