Stainless Steel Hexagon Weld Nuts DIN 929 Purification 304 A2-70 Clear

Description

A stainless steel hexagon weld nuts are a special type of nut specifically designed to be welded to another object. There are various types for different applications. These nuts are very similar to standard square or hex nuts but have a locating boss and welding projections. The bosses also keep weld spatter out of the threads. Ever Hardware provides custom made fasteners and customizable packaging.

Stainless steel hexagon weld nuts do not readily corrode, rust or stain with water as ordinary steel does. However, it is not fully stain-proof in low-oxygen, high salinity, or poor air-circulation environments. There are different grades and surface finishes of stainless steel to suit the environment the alloy must endure. 304 stainless steel is the most common form of stainless steel used around the world, largely due to its excellent corrosion resistance and value. It contains between 16 and 24 percent chromium and up to 35 percent nickel—as well as small amounts of carbon and manganese. The most common form of 304 stainless steel is 18-8, or 18/8, stainless steel, which contains 18 percent chromium and 8 percent nickel. 304 can withstand corrosion from most oxidizing acids. That durability makes 304 easy to sanitize, and therefore ideal for kitchen and food applications. It is also common in buildings, décor, and site furnishings. 304 stainless steel does have one weakness—it is susceptible to corrosion from chloride solutions, or from saline environments like the coast. Chloride ions can create localized areas of corrosion, called “pitting,” which can spread beneath protective chromium barriers to compromise internal structures. Solutions with as little as 25 ppm of sodium chloride can begin to have a corrosive effect. 304 stainless steel is the most common form of stainless steel used around the world, largely due to its excellent corrosion resistance and value.
