Will magnetic 316 stainless hex head screws affect the use?

Because of the good corrosion resistance of stainless steel material, it is widely used in the food chemical industry, medical equipment, ships and other aspects. But along with screw orders, there are also all kinds of screw problems. Shi Shi Tong has ordered 316 stainless hex head screws for a customer to solve the magnetic problem.

Mr. Su, a customer from Guangzhou, ordered a batch of 316 stainless hex head screws in Shi Shi Tong, and expressed his concern about whether the screws would affect use if they were magnetic. In view of this problem, we made an explanation to Mr. Su based on the customer’s product. Shi Shi Tong uses austenitic 316 stainless steel. Its material itself is not magnetic. The reason why screws produced will have magnetic, is that the stainless steel ‘s internal structure of the organization has changed after cold treatment, then the screws will have weak magnetic, but in fact, its chemical properties have not changed. If the use of the environment does not reject the magnetic effect, then the magnetic screws will not affect the normal use. If the environment rejects, degaussing the screws. If the customer requires demagnetization, we generally use solution treatment, which can eliminate the magnetism on the stainless steel screw.

In general, whether stainless steel screws have magnetic is relevant to the size of screws. Small screws need demagnetization, but larger is not required. Therefore, Mr. Su’s 316 stainless hex head screws with M8.2*25 specifications are in the range of demagnetization. Then we sent the goods to Mr. Su after demagnetization according to the customer’s requirements.

If you also need degaussing 316 stainless hex head screws or other stainless steel screws, you can contact the Shi Shi Tong Screw Supplier.
