ASTM A193 steel nuts bolts specification covers alloy steel and stainless steel bolting material for pressure vessels, valves, flanges, and fittings for high temperature or high pressure service, or other special purpose applications. Austenitic stainless steel may be carbide solution treated or carbide solution treated and strain-hardened. Several grades are covered in the ASTM A193 steel nuts bolts specification, including ferritic steels and austenitic stainless steels designated B5, B8, and so forth. Selection will depend upon design, service conditions, mechanical properties, and high temperature characteristics. Tests to determine high temperature properties shall be made in accordance with Test Methods E 21, E 139, and E 292, and Practices E 150 and E 151.
