Product overview

Stainless grade, class and nut pairing are separate controls

Grade B8M and Class 2 must be ordered together with the governing ASTM edition. A generic stainless description does not define the required composition, condition, properties, marking or permissible size range.

Nut material, thread surface condition, lubricant or anti-galling treatment, cleanliness and service environment must be specified separately. XHT does not infer compatibility from appearance alone.

What to include in your RFQ

  • ASTM A193/A193M edition, Grade B8M and Class 2 stated
  • Inch or SI unit system, diameter, pitch/TPI and fit
  • Stud length definition, thread condition and end treatment
  • Compatible nut specification, grade and anti-galling controls
  • Testing, marking, surface treatment, packing and records

Technical control

Use the governing document—not a catalogue assumption

ASTM A193/A193M covers both alloy and stainless bolting, but Grade B8M, Class 2, matching nuts and service compatibility are not interchangeable labels. The purchased edition and project specification control the exact requirements.
