Applicationsand

Advantages

Steel Electro-plated Zinc:  For use in wood in non-corrosive environments.Steel Hot-Dip Galvanized:  For use in corrosive environments.Stainless:  Has superior corrosion resistance to galvanized steel bolts.

Material Steel: AISI 1006 - 1022 or equivalent steelStainless:18-8 stainless steel, passivated

Heat Treatment

Steel:  Rockwell B70 - B100Stainless:  The austenitic alloys develop their strength through work hardening during the fastener manufacturing process, as seen from the hardness properties below.

Hardness Steel:  Rockwell B70 - B100Stainless:  Rockwell B95 - C32

TensileStrength Steel:  60,000 psi minimum

Stainless:  100,000 - 125,000 psi (approximate)

MinimumThread Length

The minimum length of thread shall be equal to 1/2 the nominal screw length plus .50 inch or 5 inches whichever is shorter.
