Product Overview
Titanium Grade 12 nuts are corrosion-resistant fasteners manufactured from a titanium alloy containing small additions of nickel (0.6-0.9%) and molybdenum (0.2-0.4%), designated as UNS R53400. This alloy is known for its superior resistance to crevice corrosion and stress corrosion cracking, especially in mildly reducing and oxidizing environments, such as hot brines and chlorinated media.
Conforming to ASTM B348 and ASTM B381, Titanium Grade 12 nuts are widely specified for critical bolted joints in chemical processing, desalination, and offshore oil & gas installations. Their mechanical strength is comparable to Grade 2 titanium, but with enhanced corrosion performance, making them ideal for flange connections, pressure vessels, and heat exchanger assemblies exposed to aggressive media.
