Grade B8S and B8SA are manufactured from Nitronic 60 (UNS S21800). The significant addition of Manganese (7-9%)[cite: 1] and Silicon (3.5-4.5%)[cite: 1] combined with Nitrogen (0.08-0.18%)[cite: 1] provides exceptional resistance to galling and wear compared to standard stainless steels like 304 or 316. This makes these fasteners ideal for applications with frequent assembly and disassembly.
While both are Nitronic 60 (UNS S21800) stainless steel, Grade B8SA typically dictates that the fasteners are carbide solution treated in the finished condition. This process removes any residual work hardening caused by thread rolling and machining, yielding a more ductile fastener. As seen in the MTC, B8SA fasteners maintain excellent tensile strength (e.g., 768.47 MPa)[cite: 1] while adhering to a strict hardness maximum (28 HRC)[cite: 1].
