For stud in Property Class 8.8 Steel, the controlling selection factors are corrosion exposure, strength requirement and service temperature. The grade data for Property Class 8.8 Steel (ISO 898-1 property class 8.8) is summarized below together with every size supplied.
Why Choose Property Class 8.8 Steel for Stud — GB/T 15389 / DIN 939 (Series 096)
The workhorse medium-carbon alloy class for structural joints. For stud — gb/t 15389 / din 939 (series 096), this matters when requires plating (zinc) for corrosion protection is the primary requirement.
Mechanical & Physical Properties
| Grade designation | ISO 898-1 property class 8.8 |
|---|---|
| Magnetic response | Magnetic |
| Service temperature | commonly limited to approx. +300 °C; confirm against the coating and the load |
| Corrosion characteristic | Requires plating (zinc) for corrosion protection |
Corrosion Behavior in Service
Carbon and alloy steel stud — gb/t 15389 / din 939 (series 096) 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 stud — gb/t 15389 / din 939 (series 096) 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.
