Advantages of A2 stainless steel

A2 grade stainless steel, also known as AISI 304, offers excellent corrosion resistance under normal atmospheric conditions. This makes the bolt ideal for use in humid environments and applications where rust formation is undesirable.

Application possibilities

This hex socket cap screw is suitable for various applications, including:

• Automotive sector : Fastening parts where precision and strength are required.
• Construction : Assembly of metal structures and components.
• Mechanical engineering : Assembly of machines and equipment.

Installation and use

The hex socket (Allen) drive ensures a firm grip during tightening, reducing the risk of damaging the bolt. Use a 6 mm Allen key for optimal installation.

Important considerations

Although A2 stainless steel is suitable for many applications, it is less resistant to aggressive environments with high concentrations of chlorine or acids. For such conditions, A4 stainless steel is recommended.
