In environments where it's necessary to resist sulfuric acid, chloride wash-down, or hot process streams, regular 304 or even 316 hardware may fall short, and that is when stainless steel 317 / 317L bolts come into the rescue. Our 317 and 317L bolts are manufactured to ASTM A193, A194, and ASME SA-193 / SA-194 with a higher loading of molybdenum and chromium (around 3-4%) as compared to 316L and 316, which results in superior resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion in aggressive service with high levels of chlorine. The low-carbon 317L variant (UNS S31703) has excellent resistance to intergranular attack after welding, making it a popular choice for fabricated assemblies in chemical, petrochemical, and pulp-and-paper plants. All are dual certified, batch traceable, and covered by an EN 10204 3.1 mill test report and come in a variety of sizes from M2 to M56 hex bolts and socket cap bolts to U-bolts and eye bolts and their matching nuts and washers. From a wide range of ready stock to custom sizing, Unifit Fastener is helping engineers to confidently specify and have the correct corrosion-grade fastener for the job, on time, with a same-day quote.

- Third-party inspection (Lloyd's, BV, SGS, DNV) supported
Q: What is the difference between 317 and 317L stainless steel bolts?
A: Both grades share the same high-molybdenum chemistry, but 317L has a lower maximum carbon content (0.03% vs 0.08%). That low carbon prevents chromium-carbide precipitation during welding, so 317L is chosen for welded assemblies while 317 suits non-welded, higher-strength applications.
Q: Are 317L bolts better than 316L for corrosion resistance?
A: Yes, in aggressive chloride and acid environments. The extra molybdenum (3–4% vs 2–3% in 316L) gives 317L noticeably higher pitting and crevice-corrosion resistance, making it a step up for chemical, marine and FGD service.
Q: What standards do your 317/317L bolts comply with?
A: Our bolts are manufactured to ASTM A193 / A194 and ASME SA-193 / SA-194, with dimensions to DIN, ISO and ASME B18 series. Each lot ships with an EN 10204 3.1 mill test certificate.
Q: What sizes and lengths are available?
A: Standard production covers M2 to M56 (3/16" to 2") in lengths from 3 mm to 200 mm. Custom sizes, threads and finishes are made to order.
Q: What is the UNS and EN/DIN equivalent for these grades?
A: 317 is UNS S31700 / EN 1.4449, and 317L is UNS S31703 / EN 1.4438.
Q: Do you supply matching nuts and washers?
A: Yes. We provide ASTM A194 317/317L hex, heavy hex, jam and nylock nuts plus flat, spring and structural washers so the full joint is corrosion-matched.
