Stud Bolt and Nuts

A193 B7 Stud Bolt is a bolt with threads on both ends that designed to be screwed into a fixed part at one end, and to receive a nut on the other end. In Petroleum or Chemical industry, they are prominently used for flange connection, so stud bolt used with two nuts on either side is the most common combination which replaces bolt and nut assembly.

As we know that Stud Bolts have many categories, the type for flange connection is called flange stud bolts, which has fully thread with chambered ends. The theoretical length is measured the thread. Continuous threaded stud bolt is very similar to it, except no chambered ends.

Stud Bolt Materials

The most common materials for stud bolts (for flanges) are ASTM A193 (grade B7, B8, B8M, B8T), ASTM A453 (grade 660), ASTM A320 (grade L7, L7M), and ASTM A182 (duplex and super duplex bolting). For aggressive fluids and environments, stud bolts can be coated with Xylan/PTFE, Zinc and other materials.
