UNS S31603

316L Serrated flange nuts

ISO 4161

316L serrated flange nuts engage the member directly through their toothed seat. Molybdenum-bearing stainless performance in wet equipment concerns the nut body; the substrate exposed by the serrations remains part of the same connection.

Heat Treatment

Solution annealed; cold worked for strengthened conditions

Solution annealing restores a ductile corrosion-resistant structure, while specified cold work raises strength without precipitation aging.

What we can make in 316L

Side views comparing regular-height and tall hex flange nut bodies at the same thread diameter

Body height: regular / tall

Regular height
Fits compact equipment covers and mounting brackets where clearance above the nut is limited.
Tall body
Provides longer thread engagement on clamping studs in jigs, fixtures and machine-tool setups that are tightened and released repeatedly.
Underside views comparing smooth and serrated flange bearing faces, independent of nut height

Bearing face: plain / serrated

Plain face
For painted covers and finished equipment faces where serration marks are unwanted.
Serrated face
For metal mounting brackets where teeth can bite directly into the seat to resist rotation.

All configurations shown are available on request.

Manufacturing route

Small lots use machined blanks. Volume nut blanks use a forming route compatible with the alloy before machining the bore and tapping.

Heat treatment & final condition

The final annealed or specified strengthened condition is linked to the lot; an aging treatment is not assumed for a solid-solution alloy.

Finished geometry

Internal thread gauging, usable engagement and bearing-face alignment are checked after final processing.

Where 316L fits — and what matters

Food & Beverage Equipment

Conveyor and washdown-equipment brackets

316L serrated flange nuts clamp conveyor and washdown-equipment brackets through a serrated flange that engages the mounting face. The mating surface must accept the serration contact. Cleaning liquid can remain under the part; exposed finish and access for cleaning matter at the assembled joint.

Water Treatment & Desalination

Membrane-skid and pump supports

316L serrated flange nuts clamp membrane-skid and pump supports through a serrated flange that engages the mounting face. The mating surface must accept the serration contact. The water stream, cleaning cycle and retained liquid define exposure at the installed part.

Actuator mounts and pump baseplates

316L serrated flange nuts clamp actuator mounts and pump baseplates through a serrated flange that engages the mounting face. The mating surface must accept the serration contact. Repeated maintenance makes fit, engagement and access part of the component specification.

316L material data
UNS S17400

17-4 PH

Aging-controlled strength and hardness.

Connection priority
Bearing and tooth engagement against the member
H900 versus H1150
The aging condition changes the balance of strength, hardness and toughness. A replacement part needs the specified H condition, especially where contact wear and shock load occur together.

UNS N06625

Inconel 625

Solid-solution strength and resistance to aggressive process liquids.

Connection priority
Bearing and tooth engagement against the member
Annealed or solution-annealed 625
The delivery condition affects strength and high-temperature response. Keep the specified condition with the component’s mechanical acceptance; 718-style aging is not the strengthening route for 625. Include liquid retained at the serration tips and the covered flange seat in the exposure description.

UNS S31803 / S32205

Duplex 2205

Duplex strength and chloride-corrosion resistance.

Connection priority
Bearing and tooth engagement against the member
S31803 or S32205
The specified UNS fixes the chemistry. Solution treatment, section size and the ordered mechanical or corrosion tests establish the final duplex condition. Include liquid retained at the serration tips and the covered flange seat in the exposure description.

Questions about 316L serrated flange nuts

Will serrations preserve a coated bearing surface?

Serrations work by engaging the surface and can break its coating. Include the exposed substrate in the corrosion assessment; the nut’s own alloy cannot protect coating damage underneath it.
