Product Overview

What are SS 904L Washers?

SS 904L washers are high-alloy austenitic stainless steel flat, spring, and locking washers manufactured from UNS N08904 material conforming to ASTM A240 and ASTM B625. Designed for exceptional resistance to strong reducing acids, chloride-induced pitting, and crevice corrosion, SS 904L washers are widely specified in aggressive chemical, marine, and pharmaceutical environments where standard 304/316 washers fail.

The high nickel (24-26%) and molybdenum (4-5%) content, combined with copper addition, provides superior corrosion resistance in sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, and seawater. SS 904L washers are non-magnetic, maintain excellent ductility, and are suitable for use in both cryogenic and elevated temperature applications up to 400°C.

Material Chemistry

SS 904L Chemical Composition

SS 904L Washers 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 Washers

High Nickel & Molybdenum — Acid & Chloride Resistance
The elevated nickel (23–28%) and molybdenum (4–5%) content in SS 904L provides outstanding resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking in chloride-rich and acidic environments, making these washers ideal for chemical and marine applications.
Copper Addition — Sulphuric Acid Performance
Copper (1–2%) enhances resistance to sulphuric and phosphoric acids, allowing SS 904L washers to outperform standard stainless steels in fertilizer, pulp & paper, and acid processing plants.
Low Carbon — No Sensitization
With a maximum carbon content of 0.02%, SS 904L washers are immune to intergranular corrosion after welding or high-temperature exposure, ensuring long-term reliability in critical bolted joints.

Industry Applications

SS 904L Washers Applications — Industries & End Uses

SS 904L Washers from RealBolt are specified across food and dairy, pharmaceutical, marine, chemical processing, and oil and gas where very good corrosion resistance and 620 MPa tensile strength are required for reliable fastener performance. Click each industry below for detailed application examples.
SS 904L washers are the preferred choice for bolted joints in sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, and acetic acid process equipment, including reactors, heat exchangers, and storage tanks. Their high resistance to reducing acids and chloride stress corrosion ensures long-term sealing integrity in aggressive chemical environments.
Flat and spring washers in SS 904L are used in seawater-cooled heat exchangers, desalination plants, and offshore platform assemblies. Their immunity to pitting and crevice corrosion in chloride-rich marine atmospheres makes them ideal for splash zone and submerged bolted connections.
SS 904L washers are specified for hygienic bolted joints in pharmaceutical reactors, food processing vessels, and clean-in-place (CIP) systems. Their non-magnetic, low-carbon composition prevents contamination and ensures compliance with stringent hygiene standards.
Washers for digesters, bleach towers, and chemical recovery systems where exposure to acidic liquors and chlorides is common. SS 904L provides superior service life compared to 316L in these demanding environments.
