Weston Stainless, Midland, UK, is a reliable supplier of high-quality stainless steel products, with expertise in precision-engineered fasteners for diverse industries. Of their products, Stainless Steel 305 Nuts are extensively used due to their superior corrosion resistance and excellent formability. Made from Grade 305 stainless steel, these nuts contain a higher nickel content, which minimizes work hardening and makes them suitable for cold-forming applications. They come in a range of shapes, such as hex nuts, lock nuts, flange nuts, and coupling nuts, to suit different industrial needs. The composition of 305 stainless steel provides for strength, and the nuts find applications in automotive, food processing, and chemical industries.
Stainless Steel 305 Nuts consist of carbon (≤0.12%), chromium (17-19%), nickel (10.5-13%), manganese (≤2%), silicon (≤1%), phosphorus (≤0.045%), and sulfur (≤0.03%), with superb corrosion resistance as well as high formability. Their mechanical behavior consists of a tensile strength of ≥515 MPa, yield strength of ≥205 MPa, elongation of ≥40%, and hardness of ≤201 Brinell (HB). The physical characteristics encompass a density of 8.03 g/cm³, melting point of 1400-1450°C, thermal conductivity of 16.3 W/m·K, and resistivity of 720 nΩ·m, which makes them suitable for cold-forming processes and high-durability conditions.
