Product Overview

What are SS 904L Bolts?

SS 904L bolts are high-alloy austenitic stainless steel fasteners manufactured from UNS N08904 bar stock conforming to ASTM A276 and ASTM A479. The alloy’s elevated chromium (19-23%), nickel (23-28%), and molybdenum (4-5%) content, combined with copper (1-2%), delivers exceptional resistance to reducing acids, chloride pitting, and crevice corrosion.

SS 904L bolts are widely specified for flange connections, pressure vessels, and process equipment in aggressive chemical, petrochemical, and marine environments where standard 316L or duplex stainless steels are inadequate. All fasteners are supplied with full traceability and EN 10204 3.1 certification.

Material Chemistry

SS 904L Chemical Composition

SS 904L Bolts are manufactured from an iron-chromium-nickel alloy with chromium (16–26%), nickel (8–28%), and grade-specific molybdenum additions per ASTM and ASTM A193/A194. Chromium content governs the self-healing passive oxide film; molybdenum (2–6%) enhances chloride pitting resistance; and carbon content determines sensitization risk in welded assemblies.

Why SS 904L Alloy Composition Matters for Bolts

High Mo (4–5%) — Pitting & Crevice Resistance
Molybdenum content in SS 904L provides superior resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion in chloride-rich and acidic environments, outperforming 316L and duplex grades in seawater and process plant service.
Copper (1–2%) — Acid Resistance
Copper enhances resistance to sulphuric, phosphoric, and acetic acids, making SS 904L bolts ideal for chemical process equipment and acid-handling piping systems.
Low Carbon — No Sensitisation
With a maximum carbon content of 0.02%, SS 904L bolts are immune to intergranular corrosion after welding, ensuring long-term reliability in critical flange and vessel connections.
