Stainless Steel 310H Double-end studs
ASME B18.31.2
A Stainless Steel 310H double-end stud leaves the installed end in the equipment body while the service nut is removed. Its controlled-carbon stainless performance for sustained hot loading must cover the trapped body-end interface as well as the exposed end.

Heat Treatment
Solution annealedSolution annealing and rapid cooling retain alloying elements in solution and restore the specified corrosion-resistant condition.
What we can make in Stainless Steel 310H
Clamping stud
Use for through-bolted covers and housings with access to both nuts. The plain grip spans the joint; independently sized threaded ends accommodate unequal nut-side clearances.
Tap-end stud
Use on valve bonnets and machine housings opened repeatedly for maintenance. The insertion end remains in the body while the outer nut is removed, reducing repeated wear of the housing thread.

Manufacturing route
CNC machining suits samples and special end forms. Repeat lots use cut-to-length stock with rolling or cutting selected for the ordered thread and material condition.
Heat treatment & final condition
The ordered annealed or solution-treated state is retained in the lot record; forming and machining do not replace the specified thermal condition.
Finished geometry
End lengths, runout and effective thread engagement are checked separately from overall length; tap ends are gauged to their own fit requirement.
Where 310H fits — and what matters
Furnaces & Heat Treatment
Retort and furnace-access coversStainless Steel 310H double-end studs connect retort and furnace-access covers through a threaded body end and an accessible nut end. The plain shank spans the cover grip. Hot dwell, thermal expansion and repeated furnace cycles set the working load.
Power & Turbines
Hot-gas access covers and inspection closuresStainless Steel 310H double-end studs connect hot-gas access covers and inspection closures through a threaded body end and an accessible nut end. The plain shank spans the cover grip. Hot dwell and start-stop expansion act on the supported or moving component.
Chemical Processing
Reformer access covers and hot-gas inspection closuresStainless Steel 310H double-end studs connect reformer access covers and hot-gas inspection closures through a threaded body end and an accessible nut end. The plain shank spans the cover grip. These parts work in the heated equipment zone, where sustained loading and thermal expansion govern their section and clearance.
Same double-end stud. Different material priorities.
Stainless Steel 310H material dataIncoloy 800HT
Tightly controlled carbon and Al + Ti for creep duty.
- Connection priority
- Tension through the grip and load transfer into the housing
- N08811 material control
- 800HT tightens the 800-family chemistry around creep performance. Its solution-treated, coarse-grain condition and N08811 identity should remain linked through forming and final acceptance. At the body-end thread inside the tapped housing, the relevant metal temperature can differ from the process or furnace set point.
Inconel 718
Precipitation-hardened strength for compact, highly loaded connections.
- Connection priority
- Tension through the grip and load transfer into the housing
- Strength after aging
- Machine-stock properties and final aged properties describe different states. The final heat-treatment lot and mechanical results establish the strength available in the installed part. At the body-end thread inside the tapped housing, the relevant metal temperature can differ from the process or furnace set point.
A-286
Aged iron–nickel alloy strength for hot bolting.
- Connection priority
- Tension through the grip and load transfer into the housing
- Grade 660 class
- An ASTM A453 Grade 660 order includes its class and corresponding processing requirements. The alloy name A-286 alone does not identify that acceptance condition. At the body-end thread inside the tapped housing, the relevant metal temperature can differ from the process or furnace set point.

Questions about 310H double-end studs
Can both ends use the same thread designation?
They can, but the body end may require a different fit or engagement from the nut end. Record each end separately, including a different pitch or interference requirement where the equipment drawing uses one.
