Niobium R04200 Fasteners are high-purity, reactor-grade unalloyed niobium fasteners manufactured from UNS R04200 Type 1 material. ASTM B392 covers wrought niobium and niobium alloy bar, rod, and wire and identifies R04200 as reactor-grade unalloyed niobium. These fasteners provide excellent corrosion resistance, good ductility, high melting temperature, and controlled impurity levels. Common products include Niobium R04200 Hex Head Bolts, Socket Head Cap Screws, Stud Bolts, threaded rods, nuts, washers, and custom fasteners for specialized chemical, nuclear, aerospace, vacuum, and high-temperature applications.

What Are Niobium R04200 Fasteners?

Niobium R04200 Fasteners are specialized fastening components manufactured from UNS R04200, a reactor-grade unalloyed niobium material covered by ASTM B392. The grade is valued where high material purity, corrosion resistance, ductility, and specialized high-temperature performance are important.

ASTM B392-26 identifies R04200 Type 1 as reactor-grade unalloyed niobium. The same specification also covers R04210 commercial-grade unalloyed niobium, R04251 reactor-grade niobium containing approximately 1% zirconium, and R04261 commercial-grade niobium containing approximately 1% zirconium.

We supply ASTM B392 UNS R04200 Niobium Fasteners in standard and custom configurations. Depending on the application, available products include bolts, screws, studs, threaded rods, nuts, washers, and other machined fastening components.
