EN 10269 Grade X12Ni5 (1.5680) Bolts, Studs, Nuts Manufacturer

EN 10269 Grade X12Ni5 (1.5680) Fasteners

5% Nickel Alloy Steel Bolts, Stud Bolts, Screws, Nuts & Washers in EN 10269 Grade X12Ni5 (1.5680)

EN 10269 Grade X12Ni5 (1.5680) Fasteners are 5% nickel alloy steel fasteners with excellent low-temperature toughness and impact resistance, widely used in cryogenic and sub-zero temperature bolting applications in LNG plants, cryogenic storage tanks, and cold process equipment.

a Elements not listed in this table may not be intentionally added to the steel without the agreement of the purchaser except for finishing the cast. All appropriate precautions are to be taken to avoid the addition of such elements from scrap and other materials used in production which would impair mechanical properties and the usefulness of the steel. b A controlled sulphur content of 0,015 % to 0,030 % improves the machinability and is therefore recommended and may be agreed at time of enquiry and order. For weldability, a controlled sulphur content of 0,008 % to 0,030 % is recommended and may be agreed at time of enquiry and order. c For requirements regarding magnetic properties up to a maximum of 0,28 % C.
