For Nylon Insert Hex Lock Nut (Type 2) — GB/T 6182 / ISO 10513 (Series 051) in Grade 8.8 Steel, the controlling decisions are corrosion, strength and service temperature. This guide summarizes those three for Grade 8.8 Steel Nylon Insert Hex Lock Nut (Type 2) — GB/T 6182 / ISO 10513 (Series 051) and lists every size we supply.
Why Choose Grade 8.8 Steel for Nylon Insert Hex Lock Nut (Type 2) — GB/T 6182 / ISO 10513 (Series 051)
The workhorse medium-carbon alloy grade for structural joints. For nylon insert hex lock nut (type 2) — gb/t 6182 / iso 10513 (series 051), this matters when requires plating (zinc) for corrosion protection is the primary requirement.
Mechanical & Physical Properties
| Grade designation | class 8.8 |
|---|---|
| Magnetic response | Magnetic |
| Service temperature | up to approx. +300 °C |
| Corrosion characteristic | Requires plating (zinc) for corrosion protection |
Corrosion Behavior in Service
Carbon and alloy steel nylon insert hex lock nut (type 2) — gb/t 6182 / iso 10513 (series 051) 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 nylon insert hex lock nut (type 2) — gb/t 6182 / iso 10513 (series 051) 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.
