ASTM A193 Gr B7 Bolts are high-strength alloy steel fasteners manufactured from chromium-molybdenum steel and designed for high-temperature and high-pressure applications.These bolts are commonly used for pressure vessels, valves, flanges, pipelines, petrochemical equipment, power plants, and process industries where reliable mechanical strength is required.

Our SA193 B7 Bolts are manufactured and supplied according to ASTM A193/A193M requirements and can be provided in different dimensions, thread configurations, finishes, and head styles. We supply standard and customized ASTM A193 B7 Fasteners for domestic and international industrial requirements.

What Are ASTM A193 Grade B7 Bolts?

ASTM A193 Grade B7 Bolts are quenched-and-tempered alloy steel fasteners produced from chromium-molybdenum steel, typically based on AISI 4140/4142 chemistry. Grade B7 is widely selected for bolting applications requiring high tensile strength and dependable performance at elevated temperatures.

These fasteners are frequently supplied with ASTM A194 Grade 2H nuts for compatible bolted assemblies. Depending on application requirements, they can be supplied as heavy hex bolts, stud bolts, full-thread studs, and other configurations.

AISI 4140 Cr-Mo ASTM A193 Grade B7 Bolts

AISI 4140 Cr-Mo ASTM A193 Grade B7 Bolts offer a combination of high tensile strength, hardness, toughness, and resistance to deformation under demanding service conditions. Chromium improves hardenability, while molybdenum contributes to strength and resistance to tempering at elevated temperatures.

The bolts undergo controlled heat treatment to achieve the mechanical properties required by ASTM A193 Grade B7. Proper heat treatment is particularly important because it provides the strength and toughness required for industrial bolting applications.

WNR 1.7225 Fasteners are also commonly associated with 42CrMo4/AISI 4140 material. However, material equivalence should always be confirmed against the applicable purchase specification and required mechanical and chemical properties rather than assumed solely from the material designation.

Types of ASTM A193 B7 Fasteners We Supply

We offer ASTM A193 B7 Fasteners in multiple configurations to suit different equipment and assembly requirements.

ASME SA193 B7 Heavy Hex Bolts

ASME SA193 B7 Heavy Hex Bolts feature a larger hexagonal head than standard hex bolts, providing greater wrenching surface and making them suitable for heavy-duty flange and structural assemblies.

ASTM A193 Grade B7 Full Thread Stud Bolts

ASTM A193 Grade B7 Full Thread Stud Bolts are threaded along their complete length and are widely used for flange connections, valves, pressure vessels, and piping systems. Full-thread construction allows the fastener to engage with nuts across the required assembly length.

ASTM A193 Grade B7 Stud Bolts

ASTM A193 Grade B7 Stud Bolts can be supplied in standard and customized lengths, thread configurations, and end conditions. They are commonly selected where a removable and robust bolted connection is required.

Zinc Plated ASTM A193 Grade B7 Heavy Hex Bolts

Zinc Plated ASTM A193 Grade B7 Heavy Hex Bolts can be supplied when an additional protective finish is required. The coating specification should be selected according to the service environment, dimensional requirements, hydrogen-embrittlement considerations, and applicable customer specifications.
