Product Description

Products Features

❄️
1. Low Temperature Stability

Maintains high strength even below -60℃, preventing brittle fracture. Suitable for liquefied natural gas pumps and liquid nitrogen pumps.

Carbon steel or alloy steel (35CrMoA/42CrMoA) with body-centered cubic crystal structure can have hardness and impact performance optimized through tempering heat treatment.

For A-286 stainless steel screws at -275℉ (-170℃), thermal contraction increases thread friction and improves locking performance.

Glass fiber/epoxy resin composite joints show 15% higher load-bearing capacity at -40℃ vs. room temperature, with more significant pre-tightening torque effect.

🛡️
2. Resistance to Corrosion

Stainless steel fasteners (per ISO 3506-1 standard) possess both corrosion resistance and mechanical properties in low-temperature environments.

Wind turbine bolts (10.9/12.9 grade) withstand multi-axis stress and dynamic loads while avoiding brittle fracture at low temperatures.

🔧
3. Ease of Installation

The low-friction coefficient design facilitates installation and disassembly in low-temperature environments, reducing operational complexity and maintenance time.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are low temperature fasteners?
Low temperature fasteners are specially engineered bolts and nuts designed to maintain mechanical integrity and resist brittle fracture at temperatures down to -273℃. They are made from materials like austenitic stainless steels and nickel alloys that retain toughness in cryogenic conditions.
Which materials are most commonly used?
Common materials include austenitic stainless steels (1.4301, 1.4404), nickel-based superalloys (Alloy 718, Alloy 625, Alloy 286), and specific low-alloy steels like 34CrNiMo6. The choice depends on the specific service temperature and load.
What is the lowest operating temperature possible?
Certain grades such as Alloy 718 (2.4668) and Alloy 286 (1.4980) are rated for use at -273℃ (near absolute zero), making them ideal for quantum computing and superconductivity applications.
What industry standards apply to these products?
They are manufactured according to international standards including DIN EN 10269, ASTM B446/B564/B637, ISO 3506-1, and DIN EN10088/10272, ensuring reliability in extreme environments.
In which industries are they most widely used?
They are critical in aerospace (rocket systems), LNG energy (storage and transport), medical technology (MRI magnets), and cold chain logistics (ultra-low temperature storage).
How does cold affect locking performance?
At low temperatures, thermal contraction increases thread friction, which typically improves the self-locking performance of fasteners. For instance, A-286 screws show enhanced stability at -170℃ due to this contraction effect.
