For Hex Socket Flat Point Set Screw — GB/T 77 / ISO 4026 (Series 021) in A2 Stainless Steel, the controlling decisions are corrosion, strength and service temperature. This guide summarizes those three for A2 Stainless Steel Hex Socket Flat Point Set Screw — GB/T 77 / ISO 4026 (Series 021) and lists every size we supply.
Why Choose A2 Stainless Steel for Hex Socket Flat Point Set Screw — GB/T 77 / ISO 4026 (Series 021)
The most common stainless grade for indoor and general outdoor fasteners. For hex socket flat point set screw — gb/t 77 / iso 4026 (series 021), this matters when good general corrosion resistance is the primary requirement.
Mechanical & Physical Properties
| Grade designation | A2-70 (304) |
|---|---|
| Magnetic response | Largely non-magnetic |
| Service temperature | approx. -200 °C to +400 °C |
| Corrosion characteristic | Good general corrosion resistance |
Corrosion Behavior in Service
A2 (304) gives excellent atmospheric and most-water corrosion resistance and is the most common stainless for Hex Socket Flat Point Set Screw — GB/T 77 / ISO 4026 (Series 021) in indoor and general outdoor service. In chloride-bearing environments (marine air, road salt, swimming pools) consider stepping up to A4 (316).
Galvanic & Galling Considerations
Two important notes for stainless hex socket flat point set screw — gb/t 77 / iso 4026 (series 021): (1) stainless can gall on stainless threads under load — use a thread lubricant or anti-galling compound, especially for M6 and below; (2) when joined to aluminum or galvanized steel, stainless can drive galvanic corrosion of the less-noble metal in wet service — isolate with a coating or sleeve where appropriate.
