ASTM A193 B16 Hex Head Cap Screws

The ASTM A193 B16 Hex Head Cap Screw is a specialized high-strength fastener used to directly thread into a tapped hole without a nut, common in machine assemblies and heavy component integration subject to extreme operating conditions. Manufactured by Zeron Fasteners, this cap screw utilizes the B16 alloy steel grade (Chromium-Molybdenum-Vanadium), which is specifically engineered for sustained service at extremely high temperatures (above $850^\circ\text{F}$ or $454∘C). The key feature of B16 is its exceptional creep resistance—the ability to maintain strength and shape under prolonged high-temperature stress. These cap screws provide a reliable, high-tensile connection in high-pressure steam turbines, engine components, and specialized equipment where maximum dimensional stability under heat is non-negotiable, offering a robust high-temperature bolting solution for threaded components.
