Look up the weight of a stud bolt online and you will usually find one unlabelled number. The trouble is that a stud bolt weight chart can mean two different things: the weight of the bare, threadedstud bolt alone, or the weight of that same stud fully assembled with two heavy hex nuts, the way it...

The specific weight of the fastener is an important part of the material estimation, logistics planning and preparing the bill of quantities (BOQ). Procurement departments and engineers can use a trustworthy washer weight chart when calculating loads or structural assembly specifications; this will enable them to accurately convert dimensions to loads. The weight of a...

To determine the exact loads for materials, logistics requirements and bill-of-quantities (BOQ) figures for structural framing, mechanical hanging or pipe support structures, one needs an accurate and verifiable threaded rod weight chart. When you must estimate shipping freight per metre, you need to know how the threaded rod weights are calculated, either when you want...

Jade Alloys publishes this ISO 4014 dimensions chart to sit alongside our existing ISO 4014 standards reference, giving buyers, draughtsmen, and quality teams the complete worked size chart in one place rather than a bare table of numbers. ISO 4014 covers hexagon head bolts with a shank, meaning the bolt is only partially threaded, with...

Jade Alloys  supplies duplex and super duplex stainless steel products for demanding industrial applications, including fasteners, round bars, sheets, plates, pipes, tubes, gaskets and plugs. The company supports grade selection based on application requirements, applicable standards and service conditions.  The distinction between duplex and super duplex stainless steel is not just based on chromium content....

Jade Alloys is asked daily to help specify the right fastener material, since whether a bolt, nut or stud lasts its full service life or fails long before its rated load is reached comes down almost entirely to that one choice. While size and thread pitch are important, the material of which a fastener is...

DIN 933 dimensions chart is a reliable and precise metric dimensions chart of fully threaded hex bolts from M2 to M64. When selecting fasteners for engineering drawings, bills of material and procurement, it is essential to have accurate dimensional information for width across flats, head height, thread pitch and nominal weight. The two specifications DIN...

Jade Alloys is frequently asked to explain the difference between two of the most widely used nickel alloy families in industrial supply, Moneland Inconel. Both are built around a nickel base, and both carry a reputation for handling corrosive and demanding environments other metals cannot, yet the two behave quite differently once you look at what each...

Jade Alloys is regularly asked for a heavy hex nut weight chart by buyers preparing a bill of quantities or working out freight costs for an order of stud bolts and nuts. A heavy hex nut is not the same part as the standard hex nut covered on our hex nut weight chart. It is wider across the flats...

Jade Alloys manufactures both ASTM A193 B7 bolts and ASTM A193 B16 bolts, and the question we hear most often from buyers choosing between the two is not about strength, since the two grades are extremely close on paper, but about temperature. The real difference between B7 and B16 shows up only once a joint...
