Why Choose Metric A2 Stainless Steel Hex Tap Bolts?
Our Metric A2 stainless steel hex tap bolts at AlbanyCountyFasteners.com are designed for precision in metric-based projects. Crafted from A2 stainless steel, a corrosion-resistant austenitic alloy (commonly 304), these bolts outperform standard steel in humid or outdoor settings. Their full-thread, non-flanged design ensures maximum grip in pre-tapped holes or with nuts, ideal for deep or thick materials. Available in metric sizes like M6-1.00, M8-1.25, and M10-1.50, they’re perfect for robust applications.
- Corrosion Resistance: Resists rust in damp or coastal environments.
- Full Threading: Strong hold for metric pre-tapped holes or nuts.
- Versatile Applications: Ideal for automotive, machinery, and outdoor projects.
- Easy Installation: Hex head fits standard metric wrenches (e.g., 10mm, 13mm).
Applications for Metric A2 Hex Tap Bolts
Metric A2 stainless steel hex tap bolts are tailored for metric projects requiring corrosion-resistant, fully threaded fasteners for deep engagement. Their durable design makes them suitable for:
- Automotive and motorcycle assemblies
- Industrial machinery and equipment
- Outdoor structures like fencing or pergolas
- Metric-based HVAC or plumbing installations
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Metric A2 stainless steel hex tap bolts are fully threaded fasteners made from a corrosion-resistant austenitic stainless steel alloy, commonly 304. They feature a hexagonal head and are designed for deep thread engagement in metric pre-tapped holes or with nuts.
Are Metric A2 stainless steel hex tap bolts suitable for outdoor projects?Yes, these bolts resist corrosion better than standard steel, making them suitable for outdoor and humid environments. For marine environments with high saltwater exposure, A4 stainless steel bolts are recommended for superior resistance.
How do I choose the right size Metric A2 hex tap bolt?Select based on material thickness and load requirements. Common sizes include M6-1.00, M8-1.25, and M10-1.50. Check sizing charts or consult our team for guidance.
