Manufactured in the USA, these bolts are made from high-grade alloy steel, ensuring peak strength and reliability. With a tensile strength of 180,000 PSI, these screws are ideal for critical applications that demand the utmost durability and resistance to loosening. Why Choose L9 Hex Head Cap Screws? L9 fasteners represent the highest SAE grading for hex cap screws, specifically crafted for industries where strength and longevity are essential. Identified by the "L9" marking and nine radial lines on the head, these screws are easy to recognize and trusted for their superior quality. The coarse thread (UNC) design offers robust grip strength, optimal for securing in high-vibration environments. Zinc Yellow CR+3 plating provides excellent corrosion resistance and a professional finish. Enhanced Design Features: Increased Head Height: Slightly higher than standard hex screws per ASME B18.2.1, allowing for better wrench contact and reduced slippage. Radius Under Head: Reduces stress concentrations, adding strength against fatigue failure. Smooth Washer-Bearing Surface: Ensures even load distribution to prevent loosening under dynamic loads. Key Mechanical Properties: Hardness: 38 to 42 HRC Surface Hardness: Maximum HR15N 81.5 Tensile Strength: 180,000 PSI Minimum Yield Strength: 155,000 PSI Minimum Proof Load Strength: 145,000 PSI Elongation: 12% Minimum Reduction of Area: 35% Minimum Head Marking: Nine radial lines with "L9" for easy identification Advanced Surface Finish: Zinc Yellow Plated: Meets ASTM F1941/F1941M Fe/Zn 5CN standards with a minimum thickness of 5 microns (0.0002"). Yellow Trivalent (Cr+3) Coating: Provides 96 hours of red rust protection in salt spray testing, enhancing durability.
