Quantity
The Xiamen Allen Bolt is a high-performance fastener manufactured from ASTM A193 B7M material, featuring a durable PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) coating. This product is engineered to meet the rigorous demands of critical industrial applications, offering exceptional corrosion resistance and protection against hydrogen embrittlement. Available in sizes ranging from M5 to M100 and lengths from 30 to 1000 mm with UNC thread standards, this Grade A bolt delivers reliable performance across multiple sectors.
Technical Specifications and Design Philosophy
The low hardness design of the B7M material (HRC 22-30) represents a deliberate engineering choice to mitigate hydrogen embrittlement risks. Hydrogen embrittlement is a catastrophic failure mechanism where hydrogen atoms diffuse into the metal lattice, accumulating at grain boundaries and stress concentration points, potentially causing sudden fracture without warning. Research demonstrates that reducing hardness from HRC 35 to HRC 25 decreases the hydrogen embrittlement sensitivity index from 0.8 to 0.3. This aligns with ISO 15156-2 standards for sour service applications, which impose maximum hardness requirements to prevent hydrogen-related failures. The quenching and tempering process, with tempering controlled between 650°C and 700°C, ensures a homogenized internal structure with minimal residual stress.

The PTFE Coating Advantage
The PTFE coating provides exceptional chemical resistance, self-lubricating properties, and friction reduction, significantly extending service life in extreme conditions. This coating is particularly valuable in applications involving aggressive media, high temperatures, and corrosive environments.
