Bolts that are classified under European standard 15048, like grade 8.8 are to be used for general Non-Preloaded structural applications. Keeping in accordance with this European Standard, connections created with these Grade 8.8 Bolt need to be able to be loaded with shear and/or tensile load. Another important point to note is that fasteners produced under this European Standard are ideally not intended to undergo welding operations.
Lower than grade 10.9 in terms of tensile strength, these high tensile grade 8.8 Stainless Steel Bolts are generally used in the automobile industry. They have good hardness and their strength makes them suited to withstand the load or stress in automobile assemblies. Heat treatment is also used to improve their mechanical characteristics. Quenching with subsequent tempering increases the toughness while optimizing the level of hardness in these 8.8 High Tensile Bolts. Since the tensile strength of this alloy is high, it is considered to be an ideal fastener for domestic, industrial as well as commercial projects that demand high strength properties. It is possible to improve the strength of this alloy by the use of certain surface treatments. Most common amongst all surface treatments is galvanization, where zinc is used to coat the 8.8 Bolt Material. Galvanization coats the bolt with a much thicker layer of zinc in comparison to electroplating or coating. This is why the corrosion resistance of non-coated fasteners in comparison to grade 8.8 Galvanised Bolts tends to be significantly lower. Zinc acts as a sacrificial layer while protecting the inner layer of the bolts in the instance of abrasions. Considering this, the En 15048 Bolt is suited to applications that require moderate to high strength, while keeping the cost of the entire operation low.
