Stainless steels can be divided into three groups of steel - austenitic, ferritic and martensitic. Austenitic steel is by far the most common type (>90% of commercial fasteners). The steel groups and strength classes are designated by a four-digit sequence of letters and numbers (eg A2-70) as shown in the following table. DIN EN ISO 3506 governs screws and nuts made from stainless steel.
| Steel group | Steel grade | Strength class | Screws, Nuts and Bolts | NUT load N / mm2 | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tensile strength N / mm² | Tensile strength PSI | DIA range | ||||
| Austenitic | A2 and A4 | 50 | 500 | 70,000 | <=M39 | 500 |
| 70 | 700 | 1,00,000 | <=M20 | 700 | ||
| 80 | 800 | 1,18,000 | <=M20 | 800 | ||
The tensile stress is calculated with reference to the tensile stress area (see DIN EN ISO 3506-1979). Nuts to be paired with same grade of stainless steel screws.
| Steel Group | Property Strength Class | Made from | Characteristics |
|---|---|---|---|
| Austenitic | 50 | A1, A2 | SOFT; cold worked, turned and soft pressed fasteners |
| 70 | A2, A4 | Cold worked, normal strength formed fasteners | |
| 80 | A2, A4 | Extreme cold worked, high strength special applications |
| Grade | USA Grade | Material designation | Material no. | ||||||
