At Ananka Fasteners Pvt Ltd, we engineer, manufacture, and supply premium SS 316 (UNS S31600) Hex Bolt (Partial Thread) built for demanding service. Molybdenum-bearing austenitic stainless with markedly improved resistance to chloride pitting and crevice corrosion. This technical datasheet covers the precise dimensional tolerances per DIN 931 and the material requirements dictated by ASTM A193 Gr B8M Cl.1 and ASTM A276 / A479.
A SS 316 Hex Bolt with a partial thread leaves an unthreaded shank across the shear plane, which is preferred in joints designed to resist shear loading. The tables below provide the principal dimensions, equivalent material grades, chemical composition and mechanical properties covered by the technical data for this product.
Our hex bolts are manufactured in standard and custom configurations, ensuring a precise fit for demanding structural, piping, and chemical-process applications.
