What is SS UNS S34700 Stud Bolts?
SS UNS S34700 stud bolts are made from austenitic stainless steel alloy containing chromium, nickel, molybdenum, and nitrogen. This combination gives these bolts excellent corrosion resistance properties and good mechanical strength.
The material also has good weldability due to its low carbon content. The bolts come in various sizes ranging from M5 to M20 (with an M10 being the most common). They can be supplied either partially or fully threaded, depending on your application requirements.
Applications of SS UNS S34700 Stud Bolts
SS UNS S34700 Stud Bolts are widely used in many industries, including power generation and water treatment plants, where there is a need for components that can withstand exposure to harsh chemical environments such as chlorine, sulfuric acid, and other corrosives.
These studs are also used in offshore oil rigs and pipelines where high-pressure levels require vital fastening components that can withstand extreme conditions. Additionally, SS UNS S34700 studs have found usage in medical equipment where their anti-corrosive properties make them an ideal choice for sterilized environments.
Features of SS UNS S34700 Stud Bolts
The main features of these studs include their excellent corrosion resistance properties thanks to the addition of molybdenum which helps them resist chloride pitting and crevice corrosion even when exposed to temperatures above 200°C (392°F). Furthermore, their strength makes them suitable for use with high pressures, while their low thermal expansion coefficient means they remain stable over a wide range of temperatures (-200°C to +900°C). The material’s good weldability makes it easy to join pieces together without compromising its properties or causing distortion or deformation.
