⚙️ Material & Mechanical Properties
-
Material Grade: A4 (AISI 316 / SUS316 / EN 1.4401) — Austenitic stainless steel with molybdenum addition
-
Molybdenum Content: 2–3% Mo — key differentiator from A2, providing superior pitting and crevice corrosion resistance
-
Strength Class: A4-70 per ISO 3506-1
-
Tensile Strength: ≥ 700 N/mm² (101,500 PSI)
-
Proof Load Stress: ≥ 450 N/mm²
-
Nut Load Capacity: ≥ 700 N/mm²
-
Hardness: HV 220 max
-
Surface: Cleaned & Passivated — removes free iron contamination, maximises natural chromium oxide passive layer
-
Non-magnetic: A4/316 is generally non-magnetic in the annealed condition
✅ Key Features & Benefits
-
Superior marine-grade corrosion resistance: The 2–3% molybdenum in SUS316 dramatically improves resistance to chloride-induced pitting — essential for saltwater, coastal, and offshore environments
-
Pressure-tight sealing: Cylindrical (parallel) metric thread with integral collar provides reliable metal-to-metal sealing for hydraulic and pneumatic systems
-
DIN 910 compliant: Full dimensional compliance with DIN 910 standard; interchangeable with ISO-equivalent parts
-
Collar design: Built-in collar acts as a stop and seating surface, ensuring consistent installation depth and preventing over-tightening
-
Chemical resistance: Resistant to many acids, alkalis, and industrial chemicals — suitable for chemical processing and pharmaceutical applications
-
Wide size range: M10 through M48 available from stock
-
Passivated finish: Enhanced passive oxide layer for maximum corrosion protection right out of the box

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What makes A4 stainless steel better than A2 for marine applications?
A: A4 (SUS316) contains 2–3% molybdenum, which significantly improves resistance to chloride pitting and crevice corrosion — the primary failure mode in saltwater and coastal environments. A2 (SUS304) lacks molybdenum and is not recommended for prolonged saltwater exposure.
Q: Can DIN 910 A4 plugs be used without a sealing washer?
A: Yes. The integral collar provides a metal-to-metal seal. For high-pressure or critical sealing applications, PTFE tape or anaerobic thread sealant is recommended as additional insurance.
Q: Are Mill Test Certificates available for A4 material?
A: Yes. FULLERKREG provides EN 10204 3.1 material certificates for all A4 stainless steel fasteners upon request.
Q: Is A4-70 suitable for high-temperature applications?
A: A4 (SUS316) performs well up to approximately 870°C in intermittent service and 925°C in continuous service. However, for sustained high-temperature applications above 300°C, please consult our technical team.
Q: What is the difference between DIN 910 and DIN 908?
A: DIN 910 has a longer thread engagement length (L dimension) than DIN 908, making it suitable for higher-pressure sealing applications. Both use cylindrical metric thread with a collar.
Q: Are custom sizes or special materials available?
A: Yes. FULLERKREG offers custom sizes, special alloys, and non-standard configurations for OEM and project requirements. Please contact our sales team for a quotation.
