Stainless Steel 904L bolt is a member of the alloy steel family, which conservatively possess 10 per cent to 30 per cent of chromium element. This element offers extended resistance towards heat and corrosive condition, being low by the proportion of carbon. Exclusive elements like sulphur, aluminium, and titanium work as great support for 904L Stainless Steel Fasteners¡¯ strength.

The flange is second most used joining method after selding. Flanges are used when joints need dismantling. It provides flexibility for maintenance. Flange connects the pipe with various equipment and valves. Breakup flanges are added in the pipeline system if regular maintenance in required during plant operation.
A flanged joint is composed of three separate and independent although interrdlated components; the flanges, the gaskets, and the bolting; which are assembled by yet another influence, the fitter. Special controls are required in the selection and application of all there elements to attain a joint, which has acceptable leak tightness.
A flange is a protruded ridge, lip or rim, either external or internal, that serves to increase strength (as the flange of an iron beam such as an I-beam or a T-beam); for easy attachment/transfer of contact force with another object (as the flange on the end of a pipe, steam cylinder, etc., or on the lens mount of a camera); or for stabilizing and guiding the movements of a machine or its parts (as the inside flange of a rail car or tram wheel, which keep the wheels from running off the rails). The term “flange” is also used for a kind of tool used to form flanges.

These stainless steel ASTM A453 Grade 660 bolts can be used up to 700¡ãC. This alloy achieves high tensile strength through a high degree of homogeneity. ASTM A286 bolts have an impressive minimum yield strength of 105,000 psi. Because SA 453 660 grade material retains its high strength even at high temperatures, these fasteners and bolts are commonly used in high temperature environments such as jet engines, turbocharger components, and gas turbines.

Stainless steel takes its name from its ability to resist rusting thanks to the interaction between its alloying components and the environment to which they’re exposed. Numerous types of stainless steel serve a variety of purposes and many overlap. All stainless steels are comprised of at least 10% chromium. But not all stainless steels are the same.

Stainless steel is an alloy of iron that is resistant to rusting. It contains at least 11% chromium and may contain elements such as carbon, other nonmetals and metals to obtain other desired properties. Stainless steel’s resistance to corrosion results from the chromium, which forms a passive film that can protect the material and self-heal in the presence of oxygen.

ASTM A234 Pipe Fittings include Tee, Concentric reducer, eccentric Reducer, 5D/6D bend, elbow, unions, plugs, cross tee, pipe cap and nipple, ect for use in pressure piping and in pressure vessel fabrication for service at moderate and elevated temperatures.

The austenitic stainless steel 6Mo was developed on the basis of alloy 904l/1.4539. However, the molybdenum content at 6Mo is increased to 6.5%. 6Mo has excellent general corrosion resistance and improved pitting and crevice corrosion resistance. Resistance to stress corrosion cracking is also improved. It is often referred to as super austenitic stainless steel.

Stainless Steel Din 1.4539 Nuts is a non-stabilized austenitic stainless steel with low carbon content, which is also resistant to stress corrosion cracking and crevice corrosion. The addition of copper to Stainless Steel 904L Hex Nuts gives it corrosion resistant properties superior to the conventional chrome nickel stainless steels, in particular to sulphuric, phosphoric and acetic acids.

S31803 is the Unified Numbering System (UNS) designation for the original duplex stainless steel. The UNS system was created by multiple trade groups in the 1970s to reduce confusion when the same alloy was called different things, and vice versa. Each metal is represented by a letter followed by five numbers, where the letter represents the metal series, i.e. S for stainless steel.

For paper mill applications requiring lower alloy grades that do not have sufficient corrosion resistance. Based on a 22% chromium content, they have a combined austenitic:ferritic microstructure that provides greater strength, corrosion resistance and cost-effectiveness.

The UNS S31803 (ASTM F51) specification has been largely superseded by UNS S32205 (1.4462, ASTM F60). This reflects their desire to maximize the alloy’s corrosion properties, thanks to the development of the AOD steelmaking process, which allows for tighter control of composition. In addition, it allows to influence the nitrogen addition level rather than just being present as a background element. Therefore, the highest performing duplex grades seek to maximize the content of chromium (Cr), molybdenum (Mo) and nitrogen (N).

Type 316/316L is a chromium-nickel austenitic stainless steel containing molybdenum. The addition of molybdenum improves corrosion resistance compared to 304/304L in halide environments and in reducing acids such as sulfuric and phosphoric acid. Type 316L can be dual certified as 316 when the composition meets the carbon lower limit of 316L and the slightly higher strength level of 316.

A butt weld pipe fitting is designed to be welded on site at its end(s) to connect pipe(s) together and allow change in direction or pipe diameter, or branching or ending.

This fitting then becomes part of a system for transporting fluids (oil, gas, steam, chemicals, …) in a safe and efficient manner, over short or long distances.

Type 304 stainless steel is a T 300 Series Stainless Steel austenitic. It has a minimum of 18% chromium and 8% nickel, combined with a maximum of 0.08% carbon. It is defined as a Chromium-Nickel austenitic alloy.304 stainless steel is used for a variety of household and industrial applications such as food handling and processing equipment, screws,[3] machinery parts, utensils, and exhaust manifolds. 304 stainless steel is also used in the architectural field for exterior accents such as water and fire features. It is also a common coil material for vaporizers.

Stainless steel grade 304 is the most commonly used stainless steel. Stainless steel grade 304N has better corrosion resistance than grade 302, and is mostly non-magnetic in nature; however when cold worked it acquires a slightly magnetic quality.

As there are many mechanical properties of stainless steel 304 plate flanges but some of them are discussed, such as density, melting points, tensile strength and many more.

There are many different types of 16 stainless steel. Some common types are the L, F, N, and H variants. Each is slightly different and each serves a different purpose. “L” means 316L steel has less carbon than 316.

304l pipe has good oxidation resistance in intermittent duty up to 870¡ãC and continuous duty up to 925¡ãC. However, continuous use at 425-860¡ãC is not recommended. In this case, 304L is recommended because of its resistance to carbide precipitation. Where high strength is required at temperatures above 500¡ãC and up to 800¡ãC, Grade 304H is recommended. This material will remain resistant to water corrosion.
