Stainless Steel Stud Bolts Manufacturer & Exporter in India

M6 to M100 | ASTM A193 B8, B8M, B8T | EN 10204 3.1 certificate on every consignment | dispatch in 5-10 working days

Unifit Fastener manufactures stainless steel stud bolts in India for oil and gas, power generation, chemical processing, marine and construction service. We produce in SS 304, 304L, 316, 316L, 321, 347, 310 and 310S, to property classes A2-70 and A4-80 under ISO 3506-1 and to ASTM A193 Grades B8, B8M and B8T with matching A194 nuts.

Studs are supplied double-end, tap-end and fully threaded, from M6 to M100 (1/4" to 4"), in lengths to 500 mm, threaded to DIN 975 / 976 and ASME B18.31.2 / B18.31.3. Threads are rolled rather than cut wherever the geometry allows - a rolled root carries materially more fatigue life on a flange that cycles.

Every heat is PMI-verified on arrival. Every consignment ships with an EN 10204 3.1 mill test certificate and NABL-accredited laboratory reports, with heat-number traceability from the mill certificate to the marked stud. Third-party inspection from Lloyd's, BV, SGS, TUV and IBR is accepted.

providing reliable performance in extreme temperatures and highly corrosive environments.

Available in sizes from M3 to M100 (1/4" to 4"), our stainless steel stud bolts are available as double end, fully threaded and tap end models and come in custom lengths, coatings and finishes to suit your needs. Underpinned by in-house quality testing, NABL (National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories) certified laboratory reports and Material Test Certificate (MTC) in accordance with EN 10204 3.1/3.2, Unifit Fastener provides fasteners that can be trusted in critical flanged connections, pressure vessels, heavy equipment, etc. From trial orders to export volumes, we provide engineers and procurement teams with competitive pricing, quick turnaround and end-to-end technical support to make us their choice fastener provider in India and across the globe.

What Are Stainless Steel Stud Bolts?

A stainless steel stud bolt is a fully or partially threaded rod, threaded on both ends (double-end) or entirely (fully threaded), used with nuts and washers to join flanges, valves, and equipment. Manufactured from corrosion-resistant stainless steel alloys, these stud bolts withstand extreme pressure, temperature swings, and aggressive chemical exposure far better than standard carbon steel fasteners.
