Alloy Steel Gr B6 Nuts

Alloy Steel Gr B6 Nuts are made of iron and other elements, such as chromium, nickel, molybdenum, manganese, and vanadium. Compared to traditional steel alloys, which contain only a tiny percentage of these additional elements, Alloy Steel Gr B6 Nuts can have much higher levels of chromium for enhanced hardenability and tensile strength. They also usually have elevated levels of molybdenum for increased corrosion resistance and added tensile strength at elevated temperatures. The addition of manganese is often beneficial because it provides better machinability than that offered by carbon steels, while it can also increase fatigue strength. Meanwhile, the addition of vanadium can be used to improve fracture toughness in finished parts.

Gr B6 Alloy Steel Nuts are made from chromium, manganese, and molybdenum alloy, which offer excellent corrosion resistance and strength. These nuts have a higher strength-to-weight ratio than standard steel and can be easily machined. They are ideal for parts that experience high fatigue wear, such as shafts and power transmission components. The thermal workings ability of this type of nut allows them to stand up to extreme temperatures that regular steel or other alloys cannot handle, along with higher resistance to embrittlement. Due to their hardness, they are popularly used in engine components, where they must meet exacting tolerance specifications.
