For fine-thread hex flange bolts, small series 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 Fine-Thread Hex Flange Bolts, Small Series
The workhorse medium-carbon alloy class for structural joints. For fine-thread hex flange bolts, small series, 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 fine-thread hex flange bolts, small series 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 fine-thread hex flange bolts, small series 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.

Need this bolt in a grade that is not listed?
Grade 8 8 Steel is one of the grades the catalog describes. Material and finish are usually what drives a special — a grade the standard part is not stocked in, or a coating chosen against a salt-spray figure instead of a default. Made by cold heading or hot forging.
Minimum order from 2,000 pieces; samples within 7 days of drawing approval.
