Ananka Fasteners supplies SS 303 (UNS S30300) in Bolts, Nuts, Studs, Screws, Washers – inch and metric.
SS 303 is identified as UNS S30300. The equivalent designations across DIN, EN, British Standard and AFNOR nomenclature are listed in the Equivalent Grades table above.
Bolting products in SS 303 are released to ASTM F593 Group 1, and nuts are released to ASTM F594 Group 1. Raw material chemistry and mechanicals are governed by ASTM A582 (free-machining bar).
SS 303 is a stainless steel known for good general corrosion resistance and wide industrial availability. For applications exposed to highly aggressive chemicals or chloride-rich environments, the exact operating conditions should be reviewed against the certified data for this grade rather than general stainless steel assumptions.
