FAQs

What does A2 304 stainless steel mean?

A2 304 is a type of stainless steel that offers excellent resistance to corrosion and is suitable for a wide range of applications, including those exposed to moisture. It is often referred to as 18/8 stainless steel.

Are these bolts magnetic?

A2 304 stainless steel is generally considered non-magnetic, although it may exhibit slight magnetism due to the manufacturing process.

What is the head type of these bolts?

These are button head bolts with a hex socket drive, designed for a clean, low-profile finish and secure tightening with an Allen wrench.

What is the standard ISO 7380?

ISO 7380 specifies the dimensions and technical requirements for button head cap screws with a hex socket drive. It ensures standardization and interchangeability.

Can I use these bolts outdoors?

Yes, due to their A2 304 stainless steel composition, these bolts offer excellent corrosion resistance and are suitable for outdoor applications.

How do I determine the correct bolt size?

Consider the thickness of the materials being joined and the required thread engagement. Standard metric thread sizes are used, so measure the diameter and desired length for your specific project.

Troubleshooting

Bolt head strips during tightening

Ensure you are using the correct size Allen wrench. Apply firm, consistent pressure rather than excessive force. If stripping has occurred, a bolt extractor may be needed.

Difficulty threading the bolt

Verify that the bolt size matches the thread size of the hole or nut. Check for any cross-threading or damage to the bolt's threads or the receiving thread. Ensure the hole is clear of debris.

Bolt does not seem strong enough

Confirm that the bolt's grade and size are appropriate for the load-bearing requirements of the application. Consider if a higher-grade fastener or a larger diameter bolt is necessary.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-grade A2 304 stainless steel construction ensures longevity.
  • Corrosion-resistant, making them suitable for various environmental conditions.
  • ISO 7380 compliance guarantees quality and standardization.
  • Hex socket design allows for secure and easy tightening.
  • Fully threaded for maximum grip and reliability.
  • Versatile use across multiple industries and DIY projects.

Cons

  • Requires an appropriate Allen wrench for installation.
  • A wide range of sizes might necessitate careful selection to avoid mismatches.
  • May be overkill for very light-duty applications where simpler fasteners suffice.
  • The silver color might not suit all aesthetic requirements without further finishing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To install, select the correct bolt size for your application. Use a compatible Allen wrench (hex key) that fits snugly into the socket head. Apply steady torque to tighten the bolt until secure. Ensure the mating surfaces are clean and free of debris for optimal performance.

Compatibility: These bolts are designed to be used with appropriately sized nuts or threaded holes. They are compatible with standard metric threading. Ensure the material you are fastening into can support the required clamping force. Available in various sizes, including M3x20mm, M4x16mm, M4x20mm, M4x40mm, M8x25mm, M10x20mm, M10x60mm, and M10x100mm.

Care: Due to their A2 304 stainless steel construction, these bolts are naturally resistant to corrosion. For general maintenance, wipe them clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could potentially damage the surface finish. Store in a dry environment when not in use.
