Alloy Steel Gr B16 Washers are robust, precision-crafted components that play a crucial role in distributing loads, preventing loosening, and safeguarding surfaces in bolted assemblies. Crafted from high-quality alloy steel, which includes elements like chromium and molybdenum, these washers boast impressive tensile strength, hardness, and resistance to wear, corrosion, and extreme temperatures. With their tight dimensional tolerances and smooth finishes, Gr B16 washers deliver dependable performance in demanding industrial, mechanical, and structural settings, ensuring secure and long-lasting fastening in critical environments.
Alloy Steel Gr B16 Washers are produced from a chromium-molybdenum-vanadium (Cr-Mo-V) alloy and provide superior strength and corrosion resistance. The composition generally contains Carbon (0.30-0.50%), Manganese (0.60-1.10%), Phosphorus (≤0.035%), Sulfur (≤0.040%), Silicon (0.15-0.35%), Chromium (0.80-1.50%), Molybdenum (0.75-1.20%), and Vanadium (0.25-0.35%). These washers have a minimum tensile strength of 860 MPa, yield strength of 725 MPa, and elongation of 16%. They have excellent hardness (248-331 HB) and superior performance under high-pressure, high-temperature conditions.

These washers are primarily made from iron, combined with carbon, chromium, molybdenum, and other trace elements to boost their mechanical properties. This unique blend gives them a high load-bearing capacity, remarkable hardness, and toughness, all while keeping their shape under stress. Mechanically, they stand up to deformation, impact, and fatigue, guaranteeing consistent performance even in high-pressure or high-temperature situations. Plus, heat treatment can enhance their strength, wear resistance, and overall durability.
You’ll often find Alloy Steel Gr B16 Washers in power plants, oil and gas facilities, petrochemical plants, heavy machinery, and construction projects. They excel at distributing bolt loads in flanged joints, structural assemblies, and high-pressure pipelines. Thanks to their strength, corrosion resistance, and reliability, Alloy Steel Gr B16 Washers are the go-to choice for industrial applications that demand secure, durable, and long-lasting fastening solutions.
