Akor Stainless is a leading manufacturer and supplier of Stainless Steel 316 Nuts, proudly based in Abuja, Nigeria. The company focuses on crafting corrosion-resistant and high-strength fastening solutions that are dependable even in the toughest industrial settings. Made from molybdenum-bearing austenitic stainless steel, SS 316 Nuts boast impressive resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and chemical attacks. Akor Stainless guarantees that each nut adheres to international quality standards, featuring precise threading, durability, and dimensional accuracy. These nuts find their place in marine, petrochemical, and food processing industries, where resistance to chloride environments and long-term mechanical stability are crucial for safe and efficient operations.
Stainless Steel 316 Nuts are made up of 16–18% chromium, 10–14% nickel, 2–3% molybdenum, and a maximum of 0.08% carbon. The inclusion of molybdenum significantly boosts resistance to chlorides and acidic environments. These nuts showcase a tensile strength of around 515 MPa, a yield strength of 205 MPa, and an elongation of 40%. SS 316 maintains impressive toughness and ductility across a broad temperature range, along with excellent weldability and formability. This alloy also offers outstanding resistance to oxidation and scaling up to 870°C, ensuring durability under both mechanical and environmental stress.
