A2 Stainless Steel (A2-70 (304)) is the most common stainless grade for indoor and general outdoor fasteners. When flanged sleeve bushing are specified in this grade, the dimensions remain per ISO / DIN; the material determines corrosion behavior (good general corrosion resistance) and the service temperature range (approx. -200 °C to +400 °C). Both are covered below with the size table.
Why Choose A2 Stainless Steel for Flanged Sleeve Bushing — ISO / DIN (Series 140)
The most common stainless grade for indoor and general outdoor fasteners. For flanged sleeve bushing — iso / din (series 140), 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 |
Galvanic & Galling Considerations
Two important notes for stainless flanged sleeve bushing — iso / din (series 140): (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.
Comparable Grades
For Flanged Sleeve Bushing — ISO / DIN (Series 140), the alternative stainless grade is A4 (316). A2 (304) suits general indoor and outdoor service; A4 (316) adds molybdenum for marine and chloride environments. Where higher strength matters more than corrosion, switch to plated alloy-steel class 8.8 or 10.9.
