Heat Treatment

SA-193 /SA-193M

6.3.1 Classes 1 and 1B, and Class 1C Grades

B8R and B8S After rolling of the bar, forging, or
heading, whether done hot or cold, the material shall
be heated from ambient temperature and held a sufficient
time at a temperature at which the chromium carbide
will go into solution and then shall be cooled at a rate
sufficient to prevent the precipitation of the carbide.

6.1 Ferritic steels shall be properly heat treated as

best suits the high-temperature characteristics of each
grade. Immediately after rolling or forging, the bolting
material shall be allowed to cool to a temperature
below the cooling transformation range. The materials
which are to be furnished in the liquid-quenched condition shall then be uniformly reheated to the proper
temperature to refine the grain (a group thus reheated
being known as a quenching charge) and quenched
in a liquid medium under substantially uniform conditions for each quenching charge. Use of water quenching
is prohibited for any ferritic grade when heat treatment
is part of the fastener manufacturing process. This
prohibition does not apply to heat treated bar or to
fasteners machined therefrom. Material Grade B16 shall
be heated to a temperature range of 1700F to 1750F
[925C to 954C] and oil quenched. The materials that
are to be furnished in the normalized or air-quenched
condition shall be reheated to the proper temperature
to refine the grain and cooled uniformly in air to a
temperature below the transformation temperature range.
The material, whether liquid-quenched or normalized,
shall then be uniformly reheated for tempering. The
minimum tempering temperature shall be as specified
in Table 2 and Table 3.

6.3.2 Class 1D Rolled or forged Grades B8,

B8M, B8P, B8LN, B8MLN, B8N, B8MN, B8R, and
B8S bar shall be cooled rapidly immediately following
hot working while the temperature is above 1750F
[955C], so that grain boundary carbides are in solution
(see A 479-88b and subsequent revisions). Class 1D
shall be restricted to applications at temperatures less
than 850F [455C].
6.3.3 Class 1A and Class 1C Grades B8RA and
B8SA Finished fasteners shall be carbide solution
treated after all rolling, forging, heading, and threading
operations are complete. This designation does not
apply to starting material such as bar. Fasteners shall
be heated from ambient temperature and held a sufficient
time at a temperature at which the chromium carbide
will go into solution and then shall be cooled at a rate
sufficient to prevent the precipitation of the carbide.
6.3.4 Classes 2, 2B, and 2C Material shall
be carbide solution treated by heating from ambient
temperature and holding a sufficient time at a temperature at which the chromium carbide will go into solution
and then cooling at a rate sufficient to prevent the
precipitation of the carbide. Following this treatment
the material shall then be strain hardened to achieve
the required properties.

6.1.1 Quenched and tempered or normalized and

tempered ferritic material that is subsequently cold
drawn for dimensional control shall be stress-relieved
after cold drawing. The minimum stress-relief temperature shall be 100F [55C] below the tempering temperature. Tests for mechanical properties shall be performed
after stress relieving.

NOTE 4 Heat treatment following operations performed on a

limited portion of the product, such as heading, may result in nonuniform grain size and mechanical properties through the section
affected.

6.2 Both B6 and B6X materials shall be held, at

the tempering temperature for a minimum time of 1
h. Identification Symbol B6X material may be furnished
in the as-rolled-and-tempered condition. Cold working
is permitted with the hardness limitation (26 HRC
maximum) of Table 2 for the B6X grade.

6.4 If scale-free bright finish is required, this shall

be specified in the purchase order.
6.5 B7 and B7M bolting shall be heat treated by
quenching in a liquid medium and tempering. For B7M
bolting, the final heat treatment, which may be the
tempering operation if conducted at 1150F [620C]
minimum, shall be done after all machining and forming
operations, including thread rolling, are complete.

6.3 All austenitic stainless steels shall receive a

carbide solution treatment (see 6.3.1, 6.3.4 for specific
requirements for each class). Classes 1, 1B, 1C (Grades
B8R and B8S only), 2, 2B, and 2C can apply to bar,
wire, and finished fasteners. Class 1A (all grades) and
Class 1C (Grades B8RA and B8SA only) can apply
to finished fasteners. Class 1D applies only to bar and
wire and finished fasteners that are machined directly
from Class 1D bar or wire without any subsequent hot
or cold working.

6.5.1 Unless otherwise specified, material for Grade

B7 may be heat treated by the Furnace, the Induction
or the Electrical Resistance method.
NOTE 5 It should be taken into consideration that stress-relaxation
properties may vary from heat lot to heat lot or these properties

7.1 Each alloy shall conform to the chemical composition requirements prescribed in Table 1. Steels with
added lead shall not be used.

10.1.3 Full Size Fasteners, Wedge Tensile Testing When applicable, see 13.1.4, headed fasteners
shall be wedge tested full size in accordance with
Annex A3 of A 370 and shall conform to the tensile
strength shown in Table 2. The minimum full size
breaking strength (lbf) for individual sizes shall be as
follows:

7.2 The steel shall not contain an unspecified element

for the ordered grade to the extent that the steel
conforms to the requirements of another grade for
which that element is a specified element. Furthermore,
elements present in concentrations greater than 0.75
weight/% shall be reported. Chemical analysis shall be
performed in accordance with Test Methods A 751.

Definitions A 370 or with Test Methods F 606. In the
event a controversy exists relative to minimum strength,
tension tests shall prevail over hardness readings.

Product Analysis

10.2.2 Grade B7M The maximum hardness of

the grade shall be 235 HB or 99 HRB (conversion in
accordance with Table 2B of Test Methods and Definitions A 370). The minimum hardness shall not be less
than 200 HB or 93 HRB. Conformance to this hardness
shall be insured by testing the hardness of each stud
or bolt by Brinell or Rockwell B methods in accordance
with 10.2.1. The use of 100% electromagnetic testing
for hardness as an alternative to 100% indentation
hardness testing is permissible when qualified by sampling using indentation hardness testing. Each lot tested
for hardness electromagnetically shall be 100% examined in accordance with Practice E 566. Following
electromagnetic testing for hardness a random sample
of a minimum of 100 pieces of each heat of steel in
each lot (as defined in 13.1.2) shall be tested by
indentation hardness methods. All samples must meet
hardness requirements to permit acceptance of the lot.

9.1 An analysis may be made by the purchaser from

samples representing the bolting material. The chemical
composition thus determined shall conform to the requirements of Section 7.

NOTES:
(1) The intentional addition of Bi, Se, Te, and Pb is not permitted.
(2) Product analysis Individual determinations sometimes vary from the specified limits on ranges as shown in the tables. The several
determinations of any individual element in a heat may not vary both above and below the specified range.
(3) Typical steel compositions used for this grade include 4140, 4142, 4145, 4140H, 4142H, and 4145H.
(4) For bar sizes over 312 in. [90 mm], inclusive, the carbon content may be 0.50%, max. For the B7M grade, a minimum carbon content of
0.28% is permitted, provided that the required tensile properties are met in the section sizes involved; the use of AISI 4130 or 4130H is
allowed.
(5) Total of soluble and insoluble.
(6) Classes 1 and 1D are solution treated. Classes 1, 1B and some 1C (B8R and B8S) products are made from solution treated material. Class
1A (B8A, B8CA, B8MA, B8PA, B8TA, B8LNA, B8MLNA, B8NA and B8MNA) and some Class 1C (B8RA and B8SA) products are
solution treated in the finished condition. Class 2 products are solution treated and strain hardened.

NOTES:
(1) To meet the tensile requirements, the Brinell hardness shall be over 200 HB (93 HRB).
(2) Class 1 is solution treated. Class 1A is solution treated in the finished condition for corrosion resistance; heat treatment is critical due to
physical property requirement. Class 2 is solution treated and strain hardened. Austenitic steels in the strain-hardened condition may not
show uniform properties throughout the section particularly in sizes over 34 in. in diameter.
(3) For sizes 34 in. in diameter and smaller, a maximum hardness of 241 HB (100 HRB) is permitted.
(4) For diameters 112 and over, center (core) properties may be lower than indicated by test reports which are based on values determined at
1
2 radius.

SUPPLEMENTARY REQUIREMENTS
These requirements shall not apply unless specified in the order and in the Ordering
Information, in which event the specified tests shall be made before shipment of
the product.

S1.

High-Temperature Tests

of bolts of all sizes. (If the available area is inadequate,

the grade symbol may be marked on one end and the
manufacturers identification symbol marked on the
other end.) For bolts smaller than 14 in. [6 mm] in
diameter and studs smaller than 38 in. [10 mm] in
diameter and for 14 in. [6 mm] in diameter studs
requiring more than a total of three symbols, the
marking shall be a matter of agreement between the
purchaser and the manufacturer.

S1.1 Tests to determine high temperature properties

shall be made in accordance with Practice E 21, and
Practices E 139, E 292, E 150, and E 151.

S2.

Charpy Impact Tests

S2.1 Charpy impact tests based on the requirements

of Specification A 320 /A 320M, Section 6 and 7 shall
be made as agreed between the manufacturer and the
purchaser. When testing temperatures are as low as
those specified in Specification A 320 /A 320M, bolting
should be ordered to that specification in preference
to this specification.

S3.

S6.

S6.1 A stress-relieving operation shall follow straightening after heat treatment.

S6.2 The minimum stress-relieving temperature shall
be 100F [55C] below the tempering temperature.
Tests for mechanical properties shall be performed after
stress relieving.

100% Hardness Testing of Grade B7M

S3.1 Each Grade B7M bolt or stud shall be tested

for hardness by indentation method and shall meet the
requirements specified in Table 2.

S4.

S7.

Magnetic Particle Inspection

S7.1 Bars shall be magnetic particle examined in

accordance with Guide E 709. Bars with indications
of cracks or seams are subject to rejection if the
indications extend more than 3% of the diameter into
the bar.

Hardness Testing of Grade B16

S4.1 For bolts or studs 212 in. [65 mm] or smaller,

the hardness for Grade B16 shall be measured on or
near the end of each bolt or stud using one of the
methods prescribed in 10.2.1 for the Brinell or Rockwell
C test. The hardness shall be in the range 253-319
HB or 25-34 HRC.

S5.

Stress Relieving

S8.

Stress-Relaxation Testing

S8.1 Stress-Relaxation Testing, when required, shall

be done in accordance with Practice E 328. The test
shall be performed at 850F [454C] for a period of
100 h. The initial stress shall be 50 M psi (345 MPa).
The residual stress at 100 h shall be 17 M psi (117
MPa) minimum.

Product Marking

S5.1 Grade and manufacturers identification symbols

shall be applied to one end of studs and to the heads

X1. STRAIN HARDENING OF AUSTENITIC
STEELS

hardening is achieved predominantly near the surface

of the bar. That is, the smaller the bar, the greater the
penetration of strain hardening.

X1.1 Strain hardening is the increase in strength and

hardness that results from plastic deformation below
the recrystallization temperature (cold work). This effect
is produced in austenitic stainless steel by reducing
oversized bars or wire to the desired final size by cold
drawing or other process. The degree of strain hardening
achievable in any alloy is limited by its strain hardening
characteristics. In addition, the amount of strain hardening that can be produced is further limited by the
variables of the process, such as the total amount of
cross-section reduction, die angle and bar size. In large
diameter bars, for example, plastic deformation will
occur principally in the outer regions of the bar, so
that the increased strength and hardness due to strain

X1.2 Thus, the mechanical properties of a given

strain hardened fastener are dependent not just on the
alloy, but also on the size of bar from which it is
machined. The minimum bar size that can be used,
however, is established by the configuration of the
fastener, so that the configuration can affect the strength
of the fastener.
X1.3 For example, a stud of a particular alloy and
size may be machined from a smaller diameter bar
than a bolt of the same alloy and size because a larger
diameter bar is required to accommodate the head of
the bolt. The stud, therefore, is likely to be stronger
than the same size bolt in a given alloy.
