Product Overview
ASTM A193 Grade B7 screws are high-strength alloy steel fasteners manufactured from quenched and tempered chromium-molybdenum steel, typically conforming to AISI 4140/4142. Designed for bolting pressure vessels, valves, flanges, and fittings for high-temperature or high-pressure service, these screws deliver reliable mechanical performance in demanding environments. B7 screws are widely specified in petrochemical, power generation, and process industries due to their excellent tensile strength, hardness, and resistance to hydrogen embrittlement.
All ASTM A193 Grade B7 screws are supplied with full traceability, mechanical test reports, and are available in a wide range of thread forms and dimensions to suit both metric and inch-based assemblies.
