Standard & Compliance
FULLERKREG DIN 557 A4 chamfered square nuts comply with the following standards:
-
DIN 557 — Chamfered Square Nuts; defines geometry, tolerances, and thread engagement
-
ISO 3506-2 — Mechanical properties of stainless steel nuts (Property Class A4-70)
-
ISO 68-1 — Metric screw thread profile
-
ASTM A276 / AISI 316 — Equivalent material cross-reference for North American markets
-
RoHS Directive — Restriction of Hazardous Substances compliant
Material & Surface
-
Material: Austenitic Marine Stainless Steel SUS316 / AISI 316 / EN 1.4401 (A4)
-
Key Alloying Element: 2–3% Molybdenum (Mo) — significantly enhances pitting and crevice corrosion resistance vs. A2/SUS304
-
Surface: Pickled & Passivated — bright, oxide-free finish that maximizes the natural chromium oxide passive layer
-
Tensile Strength: ≥ 700 MPa (A4-70)
-
Proof Load Stress: Per ISO 3506-2 Annex F
-
A4 vs A2: A4 (SUS316) contains molybdenum, providing significantly better resistance to chlorides, acids, and marine environments compared to A2 (SUS304)
