  1. Scope*
    1.1 This specification2 covers alloy and stainless steel bolting
    for pressure vessels, valves, flanges, and fittings for high
    temperature or high pressure service, or other special purpose
    applications. See Specification A962/A962M for the definition
    of bolting. Bars and wire shall be hot-wrought and may be
    further processed by centerless grinding or by cold drawing.
    Austenitic stainless steel may be carbide solution treated or
    carbide solution treated and strain-hardened. When strain
    hardened austenitic steel is ordered, the purchaser should take
    special care to ensure that Appendix X1 is thoroughly understood.
    1.2 Several grades are covered, including ferritic steels and
    austenitic stainless steels designated B5, B8, and so forth.
    Selection will depend upon design, service conditions, mechanical
    properties, and high temperature characteristics.
    1.3 The following referenced general requirements are indispensable
    for application of this specification: Specification
    A962/A962M.
    NOTE 1—The committee formulating this specification has included
    fifteen steel types that have been rather extensively used for the present
    purpose. Other compositions will be considered for inclusion by the
    committee from time to time as the need becomes apparent.
    NOTE 2—For grades of alloy-steel bolting suitable for use at the lower
    range of high temperature applications, reference should be made to
    Specification A354.
    NOTE 3—For grades of alloy-steel bolting suitable for use in low
    temperature applications, reference should be made to Specification
    A320/A320M.
    1.4 Nuts for use with bolting are covered in Section 14.
    1.5 Supplementary Requirements are provided for use at the
    option of the purchaser. The supplementary requirements shall
    apply only when specified in the purchase order or contract.
    1.6 This specification is expressed in both inch-pound units
    and in SI units; however, unless the purchase order or contract
    specifies the applicable M specification designation (SI units),
    the inch-pound units shall apply.
    1.7 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units
    are to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, the
    SI units are shown in brackets. The values stated in each
    system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system
    shall be used independently of the other. Combining values
    from the two systems may result in non-conformance with the
    standard.

  3. General Requirements and Ordering Information
    3.1 The inquiry and orders shall include the following, as
    required, to describe the desired material adequately:
    3.1.1 Heat-treated condition (that is carbide solution treated
    (Class 1), carbide solution treated after finishing (Class 1A),
    and carbide solution treated and strain-hardened (Classes 2, 2B
    and 2C), for the austenitic stainless steels; Classes 1B and 1C
    apply to the carbide solution-treated nitrogen-bearing stainless
    steels; Class 1D applies to material carbide solution treated by
    cooling rapidly from the rolling temperature),
    3.1.2 Description of items required (that is, bars, bolts,
    screws, or studs),
    3.1.3 Nuts, if required by purchaser, in accordance with
    14.1,
    3.1.4 Supplementary requirements, if any, and
    3.1.5 Special requirements, in accordance with 7.1.5.1,
    7.2.6, 9.1, 14.1, and 15.1.
    3.2 Coatings—Coatings are prohibited unless specified by
    the purchaser (See Supplementary Requirements S13 and S14).
    When coated fasteners are ordered the purchaser should take
    special care to ensure that Appendix X2 is thoroughly understood.
  4. Common Requirements
    4.1 Bolting supplied to this specification shall conform to
    the requirements of Specification A962/A962M. These requirements
    include test methods, finish, thread dimensions, macroetch
    (alloy steels only), marking, certification, optional supplementary
    requirements, and others. Failure to comply with the
    requirements of Specification A962/A962M constitutes nonconformance
    with this specification. In case of conflict between
    this specification and Specification A962/A962M, this
    specification shall prevail.
  5. Manufacture (Process)
    5.1 The steel shall be produced by any of the following
    processes: open-hearth, basic-oxygen, electric-furnace, or
    vacuum-induction melting (VIM). The molten steel may be
    vacuum-treated prior to or during pouring of the ingot or strand
    casting.
    5.2 Quality—See Specification A962/A962M for requirements.
  6. Discard
    6.1 A sufficient discard shall be made to secure freedom
    from injurious piping and undue segregation.
  7. Heat Treatment
    7.1 Ferritic Steels
    7.1.1 Ferritic steels shall be allowed to cool to a temperature
    below the cooling transformation range immediately after
    rolling or forging. Materials shall then be uniformly reheated to
    the proper temperature to refine the grain (a group thus
    reheated being known as a quenching charge), quenched in a
    liquid medium under substantially uniform conditions for each
    quenching charge, and tempered. The minimum tempering
    temperature shall be as specified in Tables 2 and 3.

    7.1.5 B7 and B7M shall be heat treated by quenching in a
    liquid medium and tempering. For B7M fasteners, the final
    heat treatment, which may be the tempering operation if
    conducted at 1150 °F [620 °C] minimum, shall be done after all
    machining and forming operations, including thread rolling
    and any type of cutting. Surface preparation for hardness
    testing, nondestructive evaluation, or ultrasonic bolt tensioning
    is permitted.
    7.1.5.1 Unless otherwise specified, material for Grade B7
    may be heat treated by the Furnace, the Induction or the
    Electrical Resistance method.
    NOTE 4—Stress-relaxation properties may vary from heat lot to heat lot

    1A (all grades) and Class 1C (grades B8RA and B8SA only)
    can apply to finished fasteners. Class 1D applies only to bar
    and wire and finished fasteners that are machined directly from
    Class 1D bar or wire without any subsequent hot or cold
    working.
    7.2.2 Classes 1 and 1B, and Class 1C Grades B8R and
    B8S—After rolling of the bar, forging, or heading, whether
    done hot or cold, the material shall be heated from ambient
    temperature and held a sufficient time at a temperature at which
    the chromium carbide will go into solution and then shall be
    cooled at a rate sufficient to prevent the precipitation of the
    carbide.
    7.2.3 Class 1D—Rolled or forged Grades B8, B8M, B8P,
    B8LN, B8MLN, B8N, B8MN, B8R, and B8S bar shall be
    cooled rapidly immediately following hot working while the
    temperature is above 1750 °F [955 °C] so that grain boundary
    carbides remain in solution. Class 1D shall be restricted to
    applications at temperatures less than 850 °F [455 °C].
    7.2.4 Class 1A and Class 1C Grades B8RA and B8SA—

    A193/A193M – 10a
    7
    rolling, forging, heading, and threading operations are complete.
    This designation does not apply to starting material such
    as bar. Fasteners shall be heated from ambient temperature and
    held a sufficient time at a temperature at which the chromium
    carbide will go into solution and then shall be cooled at a rate
    sufficient to prevent the precipitation of the carbide.
    7.2.5 Classes 2, 2B, and 2C—Material shall be carbide
    solution treated by heating from ambient temperature and
    holding a sufficient time at a temperature at which the
    chromium carbide will go into solution and then cooling at a
    rate sufficient to prevent the precipitation of the carbide.
    Following this treatment the material shall then be strain
    hardened to achieve the required properties.
    NOTE 5—Heat treatment following operations performed on a limited
    portion of the product, such as heading, may result in non-uniform grain
    size and mechanical properties through the section affected.
    7.2.6 If a scale-free bright finish is required; this shall be
    specified in the purchase order.
  8. Chemical Composition
    8.1 Each alloy shall conform to the chemical composition
    requirements prescribed in Table 1.
    8.2 The steel shall not contain an unspecified element for
    the ordered grade to the extent that the steel conforms to the
    requirements of another grade for which that element is a
    specified element. Furthermore, elements present in concentrations
    greater than 0.75 weight/% shall be reported.
  9. Heat Analysis
    9.1 An analysis of each heat of steel shall be made by the
    manufacturer to determine the percentages of the elements
    specified in Section 8. The chemical composition thus determined
    shall be reported to the purchaser or the purchaser’s
    representative, and shall conform to the requirements specified
    in Section 8. Should the purchaser deem it necessary to have
    the transition zone of two heats sequentially cast discarded, the
    purchaser shall invoke Supplementary Requirement S3 of
    Specification A788/A788M.
  10. Mechanical Properties
    10.1 Tensile Properties:
    10.1.1 Requirements—The material as represented by the
    tension specimens shall conform to the requirements prescribed
    in Tables 2 and 3 at room temperature after heat
    treatment. Alternatively, stainless strain hardened fasteners
    (Class 2, 2B, and 2C) shall be tested full size after strain
    hardening to determine tensile strength and yield strength and
    shall conform to the requirements prescribed in Tables 2 and 3.
    Should the results of full size tests conflict with results of
    tension specimen tests, full size test results shall prevail.
    10.1.2 Full Size Fasteners, Wedge Tensile Testing—When
    applicable, see 13.1.3, headed fasteners shall be wedge tested
    full size. The minimum full size load applied (lbf or kN) for
    individual sizes shall be as follows:
    W 5 Ts 3 At (1)
    where:
    W = minimum wedge tensile load without fracture,
    Ts = tensile strength specified in ksi or MPa in Tables 2 and
    3, and
    At = stress area of the thread section, square inches or
    square milimetres, as shown in the Cone Proof Load
    Tables in Specification A962/A962M.

    A962M or with Test Methods F606.
    10.2.2 Grade B7M—The maximum hardness of the grade
    shall be 235 HB or 99 HRB. The minimum hardness shall not
    be less than 200 HB or 93 HRB. Conformance to this hardness
    shall be ensured by testing the hardness of each stud or bolt by
    Brinell or Rockwell B methods in accordance with 10.2.1. The
    use of 100 % electromagnetic testing for hardness as an
    alternative to 100 % indentation hardness testing is permissible
    when qualified by sampling using indentation hardness testing.
    Each lot tested for hardness electromagnetically shall be 100 %
    examined in accordance with Practice E566. Following electromagnetic
    testing for hardness a random sample of a minimum
    of 100 pieces of each heat of steel in each lot (as defined
    in 13.1.1) shall be tested by indentation hardness methods. All
    samples must meet hardness requirements to permit acceptance
    of the lot. If any one sample is outside of the specified
    maximum or minimum hardness, the lot shall be rejected and
    either reprocessed and resampled or tested 100 % by indentation
    hardness methods.
    10.2.2.1 Surface preparation for indentation hardness testing
    shall be in accordance with Test Methods E18. Hardness
    tests shall be performed on the end of the bolt or stud. When
    this is impractical, the hardness test shall be performed
    elsewhere.
  11. Workmanship, Finish, and Appearance
    11.1 Bolts, screws, studs, and stud bolts shall be pointed and
    shall have a workmanlike finish. Points shall be flat and
    chamfered or rounded at option of the manufacturer. Length of
    point on studs and stud bolts shall be not less than one nor more

    parallel to the axis. Length of studs and stud bolts shall be
    measured from first thread to first thread.
    11.2 Bolt heads shall be in accordance with the dimensions
    of ASME B18.2.1 or ASME B18.2.3.1M. Unless otherwise
    specified in the purchase order, the Heavy Hex Screws Series
    should be used, except the maximum body diameter and radius
    of fillet may be the same as for the Heavy Hex Bolt Series. The
    body diameter and head fillet radius for sizes of Heavy Hex
    Cap Screws and Bolts that are not shown in their respective
    tables in ASME B18.2.1 or ASME B18.2.3.1M may be that
    shown in the corresponding Hex Cap Screw and Bolt Tables
    respectively. Socket head fasteners shall be in accordance with
    ASME B18.3 or ASME B18.3.1M.
  12. Retests

    S3. 100 % Hardness Testing of Grade B7M
    S3.1 Each Grade B7M bolt or stud shall be tested for
    hardness by indentation method and shall meet the requirements
    specified in Tables 2 and 3.
    S4. Hardness Testing of Grade B16
    S4.1 For bolts or studs 21⁄2 in. [65 mm] or smaller, the
    hardness for Grade B16 shall be measured on or near the end
    of each bolt or stud using one of the methods prescribed in
    10.2.1 for the Brinell or Rockwell C test. The hardness shall be
    in the range 253–319 HB or 25–34 HRC.
    S5. Product Marking
    S5.1 Marking and manufacturer’s identification symbols
    shall be applied to one end of studs and to the heads of bolts of
    all sizes. (If the available area is inadequate, the marking
    symbol may be marked on one end and the manufacturer’s
    identification symbol marked on the other end.) For bolts
    smaller than 1⁄4 in. [6 mm] in diameter and studs smaller
    than 3⁄8 in. [10 mm] in diameter and for 1⁄4 in. [6 mm] in
    diameter studs requiring more than a total of three symbols, the
    marking shall be a matter of agreement between the purchaser
    and the manufacturer.
    S6. Stress Relieving
    S6.1 A stress-relieving operation shall follow straightening
    after heat treatment.
    S6.2 The minimum stress-relieving temperature shall be

    mechanical properties shall be performed after stress relieving.
    S7. Magnetic Particle Inspection
    S7.1 Bars shall be magnetic particle examined in accordance
    with Guide E709. Bars with indications of cracks or
    seams are subject to rejection if the indications extend more
    than 3 % of the diameter into the bar.
    S8. Stress-Relaxation Testing
    S8.1 Stress-Relaxation Testing, when required, shall be
    done in accordance with Test Methods E328. The test shall be
    performed at 850 °F [454 °C] for a period of 100 h. The initial
    stress shall be 50 M psi [345 MPa]. The residual stress at 100
    h shall be 17 M psi [117 MPa] minimum.
    S9. Grain Size Requirements for Non H Grade
    Austenitic Steels Used Above 1000 °F
    S9.1 For design metal temperatures above 1000 °F [540
    °C], the material shall have a grain size of No. 7 or coarser as
    determined in accordance with Test Methods E112. The grain
    size so determined shall be reported on the Certificate of Test.
    S10. Hardness Testing of Class 2 Bolting for ASME
    Applications
    S10.1 The maximum hardness shall be Rockwell C35 immediately
    under the thread roots. The hardness shall be taken
    on a flat area at least 1⁄8 in. [3 mm] across, prepared by
    removing threads, and no more material than necessary shall be
    removed to prepare the flat areas. Hardness determinations
    shall be made at the same frequency as tensile tests.
    S11. Thread Forming
    S11.1 Threads shall be formed after heat treatment. Application
    of this supplemental requirement to grade B7M or the
    grades listed in 7.2.4 is prohibited.
    S12. Stress Rupture Testing of Grade B16
    S12.1 One test shall be made for each heat treat lot. Testing
    shall be conducted using a combination test bar in accordance
    with Test Methods E292. Rupture shall occur in the smooth
    section of each test specimen. The test shall be conducted at
    1100 °F [595 °C] and 20 ksi [140 MPa]. The test shall be
    continued until the sample ruptures. Rupture life shall be 25 h
    minimum. Testing is not required on material less than 1⁄2 in.
    [12 mm] thick.
    S12.2 When a purchase order for fasteners invokes S12, the
    product marking supplied shall be “B16R.”
    S13. Coatings on Fasteners
    S13.1 It is the purchaser’s responsibility to specify in the
    purchase order all information required by the coating facility.
    Examples of such information may include but are not limited
    to the following:
    S13.1.1 Reference to the appropriate coating specification
    and type, thickness, location, modification to dimensions, and
    hydrogen embrittlement relief.
    S13.1.2 Reference to Specifications A153/A153M, B633,
    B695, B696, B766, or F1941, F2329, or Test Method F1940, or
    other standards.
    S14. Marking Coated Fasteners
    S14.1 Material coated with zinc shall have ZN marked after
    the grade symbol. Material coated with cadmium shall have
    CD marked after the grade symbol.
    NOTE S14.1—As an example, the marking for zinc-coated B7 will now
    be B7ZN rather than B7. A193/A193M – 10a 11 APPENDIXES (Nonmandatory Information) X1. STRAIN HARDENING OF AUSTENITIC STEELS X1.1 Strain hardening is the increase in strength and hardness that results from plastic deformation below the recrystallization temperature (cold work). This effect is produced in austenitic stainless steels by reducing oversized bars or wire to the desired final size by cold drawing or other process. The degree of strain hardening achievable in any alloy is limited by its strain hardening characteristics. In addition, the amount of strain hardening that can be produced is further limited by the variables of the process, such as the total amount of cross-section reduction, die angle, and bar size. In large diameter bars, for example, plastic deformation will occur principally in the outer regions of the bar so that the increased strength and hardness due to strain hardening is achieved predominantly near the surface of the bar. That is, the smaller the bar, the greater the penetration of strain hardening. X1.2 Thus, the mechanical properties of a given strain hardened fastener are dependent not just on the alloy, but also on the size of bar from which it is machined. The minimum bar size that can be used, however, is established by the configuration of the fastener so that the configuration can affect the strength of the fastener. X1.3 For example, a stud of a particular alloy and size may be machined from a smaller diameter bar than a bolt of the same alloy and size because a larger diameter bar is required to accommodate the head of the bolt. The stud, therefore, is likely to be stronger than the same size bolt in a given alloy. X2. COATINGS AND APPLICATION LIMITS X2.1 Use of coated fasteners at temperatures above approximately one-half the melting point (Fahrenheit or Celsius) of the coating is not recommended unless consideration is given to the potential for liquid and solid metal embrittlement, or both. The melting point of elemental zinc is approximately 780 °F [415 °C]. Therefore, application of zinc-coated fasteners should be limited to temperatures less than 390 °F [210 °C]. The melting point of cadmium is approximately 600 °F [320 °C]. Therefore, application of cadmium-coated fasteners should be limited to temperatures less than 300 °F [160 °C]. SUMMARY OF CHANGES Committee A01 has identified the location of selected changes to this specification since the last issue, A193/A193M–10, that may impact the use of this specification. (Approved May 15, 2010). (1) Revised title and replaced “bolting materials” with “bolting.” Dropped definition for “bolting material” because it is in Specification A962/A962M. Updated Scope relative to supplementary requirements, use of SI units as per Guide A994, and added reference to Specification A962/A962M as indispensable for application of this specification. Dropped wording covering marking of B7M produced to prior revisions where an underline was not required. Dropped marking sections now covered by or being added to Specification A962/A962M. Committee A01 has identified the location of selected changes to this specification since the last issue, A193/A193M–09, that may impact the use of this specification. (Approved May 1, 2010). (1) Deleted the word “headed” from 10.1.1. A193/A193M – 10a 12 Committee A01 has identified the location of selected changes to this specification since the last issue, A193/A193M–08b, that may impact the use of this specification. (Approved June 1, 2009). (1) Changed marking of coated material from an asterisk ()
    for zinc to “ZN” and from a plus (+) for cadmium to “CD” in
    Supplementary Requirement S14.1.
    (2) Deleted terms “normalized and tempered” and “air
    quenched and tempered” in 3.1.1 and 7.1.1.
