ASTM A193 Grade B7 is a specification set by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) for high-strength, heat-treated alloy steel bolts, studs, and other threaded fasteners. These fasteners are commonly used in high-pressure and high-temperature service conditions, making them suitable for various industrial applications.
Types of ASTM A193 Grade B7 Fasteners:
Bolts: Hexagonal-headed bolts are a common type, and they are often used in conjunction with nuts.
Studs: Threaded rods without heads that are used to secure components in machinery or structures.
Screws: Threaded fasteners designed to be driven into materials, typically with a screwdriver or wrench.
Features of ASTM A193 Grade B7 Fasteners:
Material: Grade B7 fasteners are made from a chromium-molybdenum alloy steel, which undergoes heat treatment for enhanced strength and hardness.
Heat Treatment: These fasteners are subjected to quenching and tempering, resulting in a combination of high tensile strength, good ductility, and resistance to wear and fatigue.
Coating: The fasteners may be coated for corrosion resistance. Common coatings include zinc plating or hot-dip galvanizing.
Strength: ASTM A193 Grade B7 fasteners are known for their high tensile strength, making them suitable for applications where strong and reliable connections are required.
Applications of ASTM A193 Grade B7 Fasteners:
Petrochemical Industry: B7 fasteners are commonly used in the construction of pressure vessels, piping systems, and other equipment in the petrochemical industry.
Power Generation: These fasteners find applications in power plants, especially in components that are exposed to high temperatures and pressures.
Oil and Gas Industry: B7 fasteners are utilized in various equipment within the oil and gas sector, including valves, flanges, and wellhead components.
Construction: In heavy construction and infrastructure projects, Grade B7 fasteners may be used where high strength and durability are crucial.
Manufacturing and Machinery: B7 fasteners can be found in the manufacturing of machinery and equipment, providing secure and reliable connections in critical components.

Cold Forging
This initial process is a cold forging process used to produce a near net shape work billet. An important consideration in cold forging is the tendency for the bar tobolts Manufacturing Process buckle if its unsupported length to diameter ratio is too high. This ratio usually is limited to less than 4:1 but with suitable dies, therefore, cold forging is the most likely production method because bolts have a large head-to-shank ratio, they are longer than 1½ times their diameter, bolts have multiple diameters and finally require a geometrical shap
Thread rolling
The next process applied to the bottom of the work billet is a bulk deformation process known as "thread rolling". This type of cold-forging process is used bolts Manufacturing Processbecause cylindrical can easily have thread applied by rolling the work billet through two dies. The thread rolling process is usually chosen over machining because thread rolling provides higher production rates, more effective material usage, stronger thread due to work hardening and finally better fatigue resistance because the work billet undergoes compressive stresses during the rolling process.
Blackening and Galvanization
The final process induced on the now almost complete bolt is the application of an anti-corrosive layer, to stop oxidation. The usual process is called "blackening"; Either process chemically or physically coats the surface of ferrous metals, creating a strong barrier against humidity and corrosion. Hot Blackening is most popular & common blackening processes:
Hot Blackening
Hot blackening involves dipping the bolt into six different tanks. The bolt is usually "dipped" by automated part carriers for transportation between tanks. These tanks contain, in order, alkaline cleaner, water, caustic soda at 450°C to 500°C and finally the sealant, which is usually crude oil. The caustic soda bonds chemically to the surface of the metal, creating a porous base layer on the bolt.
