    These nuts are hardened, so they maintain their strength under high pressure and temperature. Pair them with ASTM A193 screws to fasten critical components, such as valves and flanges, in pressure tanks, boilers, and heat exchangers. About 10% wider and taller than standard-profile hex nuts, these handle heavier loads by distributing them over a larger area.
    Corrosion-Resistant Stainless Steel
    18-8 Stainless Steel—The choice for wet and outdoor environments, these nuts resist rust. However, they won't hold up to the harsh chemicals that 316 stainless steel can.
