    2. Grade 6F Nuts

    ASTM A194 Grade 6F Heavy Hex Nuts — UNS S41600

    Industrial stainless steel heavy hex nuts for refinery and process applications.

    ASTM A194/A194M Grade 6F Nuts are stainless steel heavy hex nuts developed for industrial environments requiring corrosion resistance and mechanical durability. These nuts are widely used in process piping, pumps, and valve systems. ASTM A193/A193M and ASTM A320/A320M bolting specifications are commonly referenced with these fasteners, along with ASTM A563M and ASTM F2437/F2437M fastening standards.
