SS 304 Eye Bolt: Why 304 for eye bolts
Eye bolts provide lifting points on equipment. Load ratings depend on angle of pull. In SS 304, the choice usually comes down to the medium and temperature — the rows here are the points buyers check for this exact combination.
| Why this grade | Stainless fasteners resist atmospheric and process corrosion. SS 304 is picked for general corrosion resistance, food, water and architectural work. |
|---|---|
| Typical service | Food & dairy — Tanks, piping and equipment that must be cleaned daily. |
| Bolting | ASTM A193 B8 studs with A194 8 nuts |
