Class 1A Low Temperature Fasteners - AISI 321 Solution Treated
ASTM A320/A320M Grade B8TA Class 1A represents the Class 1A carbide solution treated variant of 321 stainless steel, featuring titanium stabilization for exceptional intergranular corrosion resistance. With maximum hardness of 192 HBW (90 HRB) and 75 ksi tensile strength, B8TA provides superior weldability and formability compared to strain-hardened classes. The titanium content of 5x(C+N) minimum prevents chromium carbide precipitation during welding, making tASTM A320/A320M Grade B8TA Class 1A is ideal for fabricated pressure vessels, welded piping systems, and low temperature applications requiring post-weld heat treatment.
