Stud Bolts & Hex Nuts Material for Flanges
The Stud Bolt is a threaded rod assembled with 2 heavy hexagon nuts,normally 1 hex nut on each end.
Stud Bolts general
The quantity of bolts for a flange connection will be given by the number of bolt holes in a flange, diameter and length of bolts is dependent of flange type and Pressure Class of flange.
Stud Bolt length are defined in ASME B16.5 standard. The length in inches is equal to the effective thread length measured parallel to the axis, from the first to the first thread without the chamfers (points).
There are different grades of stud bolt and hex nuts can be used for different flange material and conditions.
Various Type Coatings are possible.
