Grade 8 High Tensile Bolts
Medium carbon steel that has been quenched and tempered is used to make Grade 8.8 High Tensile Bolts. Grade 8.8 bolts are used in railroad equipment, motors, engines, and processing equipment. They have high tensile strength and operate well in a variety of situations.
The first figure in the case of an 8.8 grade bolt indicates that the Tensile Strength is at least 800MPa. The second figure indicates that the fastener will begin to yield at 80% of its Ultimate Tensile Strength or 640MPa. The Grade 8 High Tensile Bolts are utilized in a wide range of industrial applications, including household, commercial, and industrial.
10.9 High Tensile Bolts
10.9 High Tensile Bolts also known as car bolts they’re so closely associated with the automotive industry. They’re typically used to fasten heavy to medium forged parts together. They are usually composed of boron or carbon steel and have a minimum tensile strength of 1040 megapascals (MPa). They’re also known as structural bolts, and they’re employed in both construction and the automotive industry.
The popularity of high tensile bolts in the 10.9 grade originates from the huge cost advantages they bring when compared to standard stainless steel grades like 304 or 316. Stainless steel bolts are considered to be significantly more durable when improved corrosion resistance, such as oxidation or pitting, is necessary. They compensate for this by having superior mechanical characteristics at higher temperatures but having a higher rate of corrosion. This High Tensile Grade 10.9 has a minimum tensile strength of 1040 MPa and minimum yield strength of 940 MPa.
High Tensile 10.9 Carbon steel and boron steel bolts are frequently utilized in automotive applications and for mounting huge, forged parts. Socket and countersunk buttons are commonly made with this grade.
