Properties of 18.8 Stainless Steel

There is little difference in corrosion resistance among the 18-8 types, although slight differences in chemical composition do make certain grades more resistant than others to specific chemicals or atmospheres. 18.8 stainless steel has superior corrosion resistance, (compared to the 400 series stainless) is generally non-magnetic and is hardenable only by cold working.  Some of the other advanced properties that high strength 18.8 stainless steel bolts, screws, and more, include:

• Non-magnetic
• Cannot be hardened by hat treatment
• Maximum carbon content maxes out at .08%
• Contains 18% chromium and 8% nickel

18.8 Stainless Steel Alloy Grades

There are several types of alloys that are related to 18.8 stainless steel bolt strength. These alloys all exhibit their own advantages and are used for numerous types of unique applications. These 18.8 stainless steel exclusive alloys include:

• 302: ASTM A276 Type 302; A167 Gr.2
• XM7: 302HQ for cold heading screws
