Silicon bronze tap bolts and other fasteners are considered marine-grade hardware, and they are mostly used for any fittings and fixtures for any salty seawater-based applications. A few of the common types of silicon bronze fasteners include the following:
- Hex head bolts
- Socket head cap screws
- Heavy hex head bolts
- Flat head socket type cap screws
- Eyebolts
- Keel bolts
- Heavy hex nuts
- Hex nuts
- Locknuts
- Fender washers
- Flat washers
- Split lock washers
- Hex head screws
- Square head screws
- Socket head screws
- Flange head screws
- Set screws
- Cheese head screws
The following are a few key points and features of bronze tap bolts available with Fair Wind Fasteners
Key points:
- Smooth surface
- Longer life
- Corrosion-resistant
- Higher strength
- Material and standards
Various features:
- Better to use in any heavy load and High-pressure application.
- Resistant to corrosion and also resists even saltwater corrosion and hence highly used in marine applications.
- The bronze melting point is higher than other metals.
- Bronze is also non-sparking material
- Hardness and Strength are other qualities of these bronze alloys.
Non-magnetic, high strength, electrically conductive, and extremely corrosion-resistant properties can make all these hex bolts of solid bronze excellent for many different uses that include:
- Use on any boats where corrosion resistance from seawater is dominant
- Use in an electrical generation or in any industry dealing with the energy and power for their highly conductive, corrosion resistance, and high strength
- In general, any construction area, where proximity to corrosive environment or salt spray is a matter of high concern
- Use in the purpose of electrical grounding
- In various water treatment plant applications, where these can resist corrosion from either chlorine or any other chemicals for treatment
- Use on levies, dams, and dikes where they will not corrode and can easily be removed after many years.
These tap bolts can withstand enormous loads and high pressures, as well as possessing additional properties like hardness and strength, a higher melting point, non-sparking material, corrosion resistance, and remarkable resistance to saltwater corrosion, among others.
These silicon-bronze cold-formed type of tap bolts must be released to avoid any stress corrosion breakdown, which will help you achieve the best outcomes. Silicon bronze tap bolt workability is unaffected by sulfite solutions or brine because they remain solid even at low temperatures and pressures. Gases or sulfite solutions are unable to fully corrode silicon bronze products.
These silicon bronze screws are available at a very competitive price and can also be customized for meeting the needs of any customer while adhering to various international norms and standards. All these fasteners are marine-grade hardware, which is commonly utilized in saline seawater-based applications for various fittings and fixtures.
Most of the workers who make wooden furniture often prefer to use various tap bolts of silicon bronze materials over any other materials for tap bolts because of the appearance and natural beauty that this kind of materials can offer as compared to any other conventional materials. The addition of any screws and bolts can always enhance the value of any handmade boats and other sea crafts.
