A193 B7 stud bolts are fasteners with threads on both ends. They are designed for screwing into a pre-assembled part at one end, and to receive a nut on the other end. In the petroleum or chemical industry, stud bolts are used for flange connections, often with two nuts on either side. They are the most common replacement for bolt and nut assemblies.
As we are aware, stud bolts are categorised into a variety of types. One example of this is flange stud bolts, which are fully threaded with chambered ends. The theoretical length is measured from the thread. The continuous threaded stud bolt is very similar, except that it does not have chambered ends.
Stud Bolt Materials
The most common materials for stud bolts (for flanges) are ASTM A193 (grade B7, B8, B8M, B8T), ASTM A453 (grade 660), ASTM A320 (grade L7, L7M), and ASTM A182 (duplex and super duplex bolting). For aggressive fluids and environments, stud bolts can be coated with Xylan/PTFE, Zinc and other materials.
