Product Overview
ASTM A193 Grade B7 bolts are high-strength alloy steel fasteners manufactured from quenched and tempered chromium-molybdenum steel, typically conforming to AISI 4140/4142. Designed for use in high-pressure and high-temperature bolted flange connections, these bolts deliver a minimum tensile strength of 860 MPa (125 ksi) and are widely specified for petrochemical, power generation, and oil & gas applications.
ASTM A193 B7 bolts are the industry standard for pressure vessel and piping flange bolting, offering reliable performance up to 450°C. They are supplied with full traceability, mechanical testing, and are compatible with ASTM A194 Grade 2H or 7 nuts for critical service.
