ASTM A194 Grade 8 Nuts

The ASTM A194 Grade 8 Nut is an industrial fastener designed specifically to complement and be used with the ASTM A193 B8 stud bolts. These nuts are manufactured from austenitic stainless steel (AISI 304) and are designated for high-pressure or high-temperature service. They are typically supplied in the heavy hex nut style, which provides a larger bearing surface and greater wrenching capability, a critical factor for secure joint integrity in flange bolting. The composition and heat treatment ensure that the Grade 8 nuts possess excellent corrosion resistance and retain high strength across a wide temperature spectrum. Zeron Fasteners manufactures and supplies these high-quality nuts, ensuring they meet the stringent hardness and proof load requirements for reliable, long-term performance.
