Product Overview
ASTM A193 Grade B7 washers are high-strength alloy steel flat washers manufactured to complement B7 bolts and studs in critical bolted assemblies. Produced from quenched and tempered chromium-molybdenum steel (UNS K21590), these washers provide reliable load distribution and prevent surface damage under high clamping forces. B7 washers are engineered for use in high-pressure, high-temperature, and corrosive environments, including petrochemical, power generation, and oil & gas applications.
Conforming to ASTM F436 and ASTM A194 dimensional and mechanical requirements, ASTM A193 Grade B7 washers are available in both plain and zinc-plated finishes. They are essential for maintaining joint integrity in flange connections, pressure vessels, and structural assemblies where Grade B7 fasteners are specified.
