What's Inside This Grade 1 (304/304L) MTC Certificate
This sample mill test certificate mirrors the rigorous QA documentation package standard for high-quality, general-purpose austenitic stainless steel fasteners shipped from our facilities.
- Full Traceability: Certified with TC No.: B12/25-XX and corresponding ASTM F593 specifications.
- Standard Austenitic Chemistry: Detailed breakdowns verifying the classic Chromium (~18.50%) and Nickel (~8.50%) composition, providing excellent general corrosion resistance for architectural, food processing, and outdoor applications.
- Dual Certification Compatibility: Explicit verification of the low carbon content (0.03% max for the 'L' designation), ensuring compliance with both standard 304 strength requirements and 304L weldability standards to prevent intergranular corrosion.
- Mechanical Properties: Comprehensive reporting of Tensile Strength (720.50 MPa), Yield Strength (460.20 MPa), Elongation (35.50%), and Hardness (92, 94, 93 HRB) per ASTM F593 Condition CW (Cold Worked) requirements.
- Quality Compliance: 100% visual inspection carried out and verified free from defects and radioactive contamination.

Technical FAQs — ASTM F593 Grade 1 (304/304L) MTC
What does "Dual Certification" (304/304L) mean on this MTC?
The chemistry section shows a maximum Carbon content below 0.030% (the "L" requirement), while the mechanical properties meet the higher tensile and yield strength requirements of standard 304. This means the fasteners are "Dual Certified," offering both the structural integrity of 304 and the superior weldability and resistance to carbide precipitation characteristic of 304L.
How does Alloy Group 1 (304) differ from Group 2 (316)?
The primary difference, as visible in the chemistry table, is the absence of Molybdenum in Alloy Group 1. While Group 2 (316) contains Molybdenum for enhanced chloride resistance, Group 1 (304) relies on its 18% Chromium and 8% Nickel composition. It is the ideal, cost-effective choice for general atmospheric corrosion, food processing, and architectural applications where extreme chloride exposure is not a concern.
What condition are these F593 bolts supplied in?
ASTM F593 bolts are commonly supplied in Condition CW (Cold Worked). Unlike fully annealed condition (Condition A), the cold working process increases the mechanical strength of the bolts, allowing them to achieve the higher minimum tensile (655 MPa) and yield (450 MPa) strengths documented in the mechanical properties table.
