Property Class 12.9 Steel Equal-End Stud Bolt are supplied to GB/T 901 / DIN 939. The grade provides requires plating or black-oxide protection and is magnetic; the practical service range is commonly limited to approx. +300 °C; confirm against the coating and the load. Property data, grade comparison and the full size table follow.
Why Choose Property Class 12.9 Steel for Equal-End Stud Bolt — GB/T 901 / DIN 939 (Series 093)
The highest common strength class, for high-load machine assembly. For equal-end stud bolt — gb/t 901 / din 939 (series 093), this matters when requires plating or black-oxide protection is the primary requirement.
Mechanical & Physical Properties
| Grade designation | ISO 898-1 property class 12.9 |
|---|---|
| Magnetic response | Magnetic |
| Service temperature | commonly limited to approx. +300 °C; confirm against the coating and the load |
| Corrosion characteristic | Requires plating or black-oxide protection |
Corrosion Behavior in Service
Carbon and alloy steel equal-end stud bolt — gb/t 901 / din 939 (series 093) require a coating for corrosion protection. Zinc plating (with or without passivation) is the most common; hot-dip galvanizing is used for outdoor structural service; black-oxide is mainly a tarnish-prevention finish for tool-room use.
Galvanic & Galling Considerations
For equal-end stud bolt — gb/t 901 / din 939 (series 093) in steel, the dominant compatibility issue is hydrogen embrittlement at high property classes (10.9 and above) when electroplated. Plating must be followed by an appropriate baking treatment, or a non-electroplated finish (mechanical zinc, zinc flake) should be substituted.
