Stainless Steel UNS S31700 Nuts

SS UNS S31700 nuts are engineered from iron and chromium to provide superior mechanical properties while being highly corrosion-resistant. The main alloying elements in these nuts consist of around 18% chromium and 11% nickel, which come together to make up a composition of 73.9 – 80.7% iron and 19 – 23.7 % chromium with trace amounts of sulfur, phosphorus, carbon, and silicon present as well. Because they are made from such a supportive combination of alloying elements, stainless steel UNS S31700 Nuts possess excellent corrosion and oxidation resistance and superior temperature stability. Hence, they remain unaffected in temperatures up to 1200°F. As strong yet durable components, these nuts have become essential for heavy-duty industrial assembly applications worldwide.

UNS S31700 Nuts are commonly used in many manufacturing and construction applications due to their impressive strength, durability, and corrosion resistance. The nuts are considered high-alloy austenitic stainless steel with excellent general corrosion resistance to chemicals and acids and good formability and weldability. Their consistent finish makes them well-suited for applications that require uniform quality while highly resistant to chloride pitting, crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking in high-temperature/high-pressure environments. Furthermore, these UNS S31700 Nuts offer excellent toughness at low and ambient temperatures with a high tensile strength of nearly 87,000 psi. This makes them cost-effective alternatives for applications requiring similar properties of costly nickel-based alloys.
