Parveen manufactures and supplies studs, nuts to meet requirements of all API flanges as per API-6A, as well as flanges as per ANSI B-16.5 and MSS-SP-44 & BS 3293.

Studs & Nuts
for API Flanges:
Studs nuts shall meet the requirements of the applicable ASTM specs unless otherwise noted. Dimension and thread pitch shall be as per ASTM A-193 for studs and ASTM A-194 for nuts. API flanges takes precedence from those required by ASTM.

Yield strength shall meet or exceed the minimum shown in the table. Material size limitations specified in ASTM A-320 for GR L7M may be exceeded if the material requirement are met.

NACE Class-I Studs
a. UNS No.05500 in the hot rolled and age hardened condition will have a hardness of HRC 35 or lower and a minimum yield strength of 105000 PSI (725 MPA) for dia's upto 2.5" and of 95000 PSI for larger sizes.
b. ASTM a 453 GR 660 solution treated and age hardened will have a hardness of HRC 35 and lower and a minimum yield strength of 105,000 PSI for dia's upto 2.5" and of 95000 PSI for larger sizes.

NACE Class-II Studs
a. ASTM a 193 gr B7M is provided at a minimum yield strength of 80,000 PSI for the API flanges for NACE MR 01-75 Class II only.
b. ASTM a 320 grade L7M is provided at a minimum yield strength of 80000 PSI for the API flanges for NACE MR 01-75 Class II only.

NACE Class-III Studs
a. ASTM a 193 GR B7 is provided for non exposed service for the API flanges for NACE MR 01-75 Class III only.
b. ASTM a 320 Gr L7 is provided for non exposed service for the API flanges for NACE MR 01-75 Class III only.

NACE Nuts
a. ASTM a 194 gr.2 HM is provided for all the API flange sizes and rated working pressure.
b. For NACE Class I, UNS no.05500 or ASTM A453 GR.660 nuts can be used with NACE Class I bolting after making provisions to prevent galling.

Studs & Nuts for ANSI B-16.5 Flanges
Bolting Materials for high strength bolting having allow-able stress not less than those for ASTM a 193 GR. B7 are also listed. Minimum yield strength for low strength bolting is 30 KSI(207 MPA). Flanged joints using low strength carbon steel bolts will not be used above 400' F (200'C) or below -20'F(-29'C).

General Note:
a. Bolting Material will not be used beyod temperature limits specified in the governing code.

Notes:
1. Repair welding of bolting material is prohibited.
2. These bolting materials may be used with all listed materials and gaskets.
3. These bolting materials may be used with all listed materials and gaskets, provided it has been verified that as Sealed Joint can be maintained under rated working pressure and temperature.
4. These bolting materials may be used with all listed materials but are limited to class 150 and class 300 joints.
5. These materials may be used as boliting with comparable nickel and special alloy parts.
6. This austenic stainless material has been carbide solution treated but not strain hardened. Use A 194 Nuts of corresponding material.
7. Nut may be machined from the same material or may be of a compatible grade of ASTM A194.
8. Maximum operating temp-erature is aebitrarily set at 500'F (260'C) because hard temper adversely affect design stress in the creep rupture range.
9. Forging quality not permitted unless the producer last heating or working these parts them as requuired for other permitted conditions in the same spec-ifications and certifies their final tensile, yield and elongation properties to equal or exceed the requirements for one of the other permitted conditions.
10. This ferritic material is intended for low temperature service. Use A194 Gr4 or Gr7 nuts.
11. This austenic stainless material has been carbide solution treated but not strain hardened. Use A 194 Nuts of corresponding material.
12. This carbon steel fastener shall not be used above 400'F(200'C) or below -20'F(-29'C). See also note 4. Bolts with drilled or undersized heads shall not be used.
13. Acceptable nuts for those with quenched and tempered bolts are A194 Gr2 and Gr2H. Mechanical property requi-rements for studs shall be the same as those for bolts.
14. This special alloy is intended for high temperature service with austenic stainless steel.
