Product Description

Products Features

Low Temperature Stability

❄️

It maintains high strength even below -60℃, preventing brittle fracture. It is suitable for equipment such as liquefied natural gas pumps and liquid nitrogen pumps.

🔩

Carbon steel or alloy steel (such as 35CrMoA/42CrMoA) with a body-centered cubic crystal structure can have its hardness and impact performance optimized through tempering heat treatment.

📐

The preload force is positively correlated with temperature: For A-286 stainless steel screws, at -275℉ (-170℃), due to the thermal contraction effect, the thread friction increases, and the locking performance improves.

🧱

The glass fiber/epoxy resin composite material joints have a 15% higher load-bearing capacity at -40℃ compared to at room temperature, and the pre-tightening torque effect is even more significant.

Resistance to Corrosion

🛡️

Stainless steel fasteners (as per the ISO 3506-1 standard) possess both corrosion resistance and mechanical properties in low-temperature environments.

💨

Wind turbine bolts (such as 10.9/12.9 grade) need to withstand multi-axis stress and dynamic loads, and should avoid brittle fracture at low temperatures.

Ease of Installation

🔧

The low-friction coefficient design facilitates installation and disassembly in low-temperature environments.

Application Fields

🚀 Aerospace

Rocket fuel storage tanks, liquid hydrogen/liquid oxygen pipeline connections (such as in SpaceX's cryogenic propulsion system). The wind tunnel model employs a low-temperature locking device, which enhances the connection stability through the thermal contraction effect.

🔋 Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) and Energy

LNG storage tanks, transport ships and pipeline flange connections (with working temperatures as low as -162°C). Liquid nitrogen/liquid helium storage equipment (such as for fixing superconducting magnets).

⚛️ Superconductivity and Quantum Technology

The cryogenic support structure of superconducting magnets (such as those in MRI equipment). The cryogenic thermostat of a quantum computer (close to absolute zero).

🧊 Food Freezing and Cold Chain Logistics

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q What are low temperature fasteners and why are they necessary?
Low temperature fasteners are specially designed bolts, nuts, and screws engineered to maintain mechanical integrity at extremely cold temperatures, often as low as -273℃. Standard fasteners can suffer brittle fracture in cryogenic environments, making these specialized components essential for safety-critical applications such as LNG storage, aerospace systems, and superconducting equipment.
Q What materials are most commonly used for low temperature fasteners?
The most commonly used materials include austenitic stainless steels (such as 316L, 321, 316Ti), nickel-based alloys (such as Alloy 718, Alloy 625, Alloy C22), and specialized alloy steels (such as 34CrNiMo6, 30CrNiMo8). Austenitic stainless steels are particularly favored because their face-centered cubic structure remains ductile even near absolute zero (-273℃).
Q Which executive standards apply to low temperature fasteners?
Low temperature fasteners are manufactured according to several international standards, including DIN EN 10269 (for steel and nickel alloys for fasteners at elevated and/or low temperatures), ASTM B637 (for nickel alloy bars), ASTM B446/B564, and DIN EN10088/10272 for stainless steel grades. The specific standard depends on the material and application requirements.
Q How does low temperature affect the preload and locking performance of fasteners?
At low temperatures, thermal contraction causes the fastener material to shrink, which increases thread friction and typically improves locking performance. For example, A-286 stainless steel screws at -170℃ exhibit enhanced thread engagement due to this contraction effect. Additionally, glass fiber/epoxy composite joints show a 15% higher load-bearing capacity at -40℃ compared to room temperature.
Q What is the lowest operating temperature that low temperature fasteners can withstand?
The most advanced low temperature fasteners, such as those made from Alloy 718 (2.4668), A-286 (1.4980), and certain austenitic stainless steel grades (e.g., 1.4429, 1.4571, 1.4306), can withstand temperatures down to -273℃ — approaching absolute zero. These are used in quantum computing cryostats and superconducting magnet systems.
Q In which industries are low temperature fasteners most widely applied?
Low temperature fasteners are widely used across several industries: Aerospace (rocket propulsion systems, wind tunnel models), LNG & Energy (storage tanks, pipeline flanges, transport ships), Superconductivity & Quantum Technology (MRI magnets, quantum computer cryostats), and Food & Cold Chain Logistics (ultra-low temperature cold storage facilities, liquid nitrogen quick-freezing equipment).
