High Strength Aluminum Bolts

A grade 8 bolt would be one that meets astm a490 standards.

High strength aluminum bolts.

Grade 8 bolts have a minimum tensile strength of 150 000 psi. It includes the following. We carry many different fasteners in aluminum. It offers the best strength to weight ratio compared to other metal materials.

The a325 bolt strength or sae grade 5 bolt strength is usually used for structural bolting projects. Our stock includes 2024 t4 and 6061 t6. We strongly believed that there was a need for one company to carry in stock a full line of aluminum fasteners from a to z along with a knowledgeable staff who knew alloys finishes and their applications. Finally fasteners made from the various high strength plastics available today are also an option for preventing aluminum corrosion.

While fasteners with high nickel content offer excellent strength and corrosion oxidization resistance but are typically not used consistently due to their high cost. Aluform high strength aluminum bolts are the market leader for global automotive fastening applications in lightweighting corrosion resistance and electrification. Aluminum fastener supply co. Non metal bolts and screws are even more limited in strength than aluminum ones but they re still a good option for medical and food manufacturing applications.

For applications with magnesium or aluminum fasteners of aluminum alloys offer definite advantages over steel screws. Generally 60 lighter than steel these bolts offer a highly cost effective performance advantage to oem parts. Fasteners made of nickel copper alloys have a tensile strength of roughly 80 000 psi while fasteners made of nickel copper aluminum have a tensile strength of around 130 000 psi. As a comparison the astm a325 bolt is roughly equivalent to the sae grade 5.

Was brought into existence to fill a void in the non ferrous fastener market. Choose from our selection of aluminum bolts including aluminum hex head screws aluminum socket head screws and more. In stock and ready to ship. Partially threaded rod end bolts create pivoting connections in applications that require high shear strength the partially threaded shank of these rod end bolts withstands more side force than a fully threaded shank.

Aluform usa combines ribe and mfcs strengths to bring the aluform product line to the north american marketplace via local application engineering customer support. Our aluminium products are manufactured on site from 7075t6 aluminium alloy which is the strongest commercially available. A grade 8 bolt is the highest grade sae bolt. Tensile strength 570 mpa 83 000 psi.

These include substantial weight savings high connection strength avoidance of galvanic corrosion and appreciable potential for saving costs.
