View moreHexagon bolt&nut is a fastener composed of a finger and a screw. Bolts
are divided into iron bolts and stainless steel bolts according to their
materials, namely hexagon head bolts (partially threaded) - Grade C
and hexagon head bolts (fully threaded) - Grade C.
The
performance grades of bolts used for steel structure connections are
divided into more than 10 grades, including 3.6, 4.6, 4.8, 5.6, 6.8,
8.8, 9.8, 10.9, 12.9, etc. Among them, bolts with grade 8.8 and above
are made of low-carbon alloy steel or medium carbon steel and undergo
heat treatment (quenching, tempering), commonly known as high-strength
bolts, while others are commonly known as ordinary bolts. The bolt
performance grade number consists of two parts of numbers, which
respectively represent the nominal tensile strength value and yield
strength ratio of the bolt material. For example:
The meaning of a bolt with a performance level of 4.6 is:
1. The nominal tensile strength of the bolt material reaches 400MPa level;
2. The yield strength ratio of bolt material is 0.6;
3. The nominal yield strength of the bolt material reaches 400 × 0.6=240MPa level
High strength bolts with a performance level of 10.9, made of materials that have undergone heat treatment, can achieve:
1. The nominal tensile strength of the bolt material reaches 1000MPa level;
2. The yield strength ratio of bolt material is 0.9;
3. The nominal yield strength of the bolt material reaches 1000 × 0.9=900MPa level
The
meaning of bolt performance grade is an internationally recognized
standard. For bolts with the same performance grade, regardless of the
difference in material and origin, their performance is the same, and
only the performance grade should be selected for design.
