Duplex, Super Duplex or Super Austenitic Stainless Steel Fasteners
Duplex, Super Duplex or Super Austenitic Stainless Steel Fasteners Stainless steel 304 and 316 are now a low cost solution but for corrosion application moreoften are not the best one; we can nowadays chose between a large range of corrosion resistant fasteners as duplex, super duplex, super austenitic alloy or the best performers nickel alloys […]
Fastening systems, temperature resistance, corrosion resistance and mechanical characteristics – third part
To create corrosion-resistant fastening systems, different types of materials belonging to different categories can be used, we can define them as families, which differ mainly in the quantity of certain alloy elements (especially nickel and chromium); the diagram below better identifies the subdivision: During the design phase, a first rough choice can be made by […]

Fastening systems, resistance to temperature, corrosion and mechanical characteristics – first part
Designers often find themselves having to select the most suitable material to use for the creation of a fastening system, unable to find the right compromise that meets specific needs. The first phase for the choice is to define the main characteristics: mechanical strength resistance to high or low temperatures corrosion resistance availability of the […]
HASTELLOY® C-276 Screws
HASTELLOY® C-276 Screws MF Inox can produce any kind of standard or no standard fasteners, included HASTELLOY® C-276 screws, hexagonal head screws, hexagonal nuts and studbolts. This is a nickel-molybdenum-chromium alloy extremely versatile as it combines an excellent corrosion resistance with a good thermal stability conferred by a poor propensity to precipitation on the grain edge. […]
Fastening systems, temperature resistance, corrosion resistance and mechanical characteristics – second part
To ensure the correct functioning of the fastening system, knowledge of the tightening force and therefore of the tightening torque of the screw, tie rod or nut is the first important data that allows you to select the sizing, diameter and pitch of the thread that most satisfies you. in terms of overall dimensions the […]
