Material Composition | Industrial machinery, corrosive environments | Industry Standard: Steel (ASTM A36, 250 MPa tensile) ▲ Base: Aluminum Alloy 6061 (ASTM B211, 276 MPa, 1/3 weight) ▲ Advanced: Stainless Steel 316 (ASTM A240, 570 MPa) | Lighter weight (Base), superior strength/corrosion resistance (Advanced) | Base: Lower strength than steel; Advanced: Higher cost |
Certification Compliance | Regulatory industries (construction, automotive) | Industry Standard: No EPR compliance ▲ Base: EPR France Packing (complies with French regulations) ▲ Advanced: EPR Germany Packing (meets stricter German standards) | Ensures market access in regulated regions | Advanced: Requires additional documentation for compliance |
Corrosion Resistance | Marine, chemical plants, coastal areas | Industry Standard: Uncoated steel (rusts in 48h salt spray) ▲ Base: Galvanized (Zinc coating ≥8 µm, 480h salt spray) ▲ Advanced: Stainless Steel 316 (1000h salt spray) | Base prevents rust; Advanced eliminates corrosion | Base may need recoating over time; Advanced costlier |
Thread Specifications | Precision assembly, machinery mounting | Industry Standard: Metric threads (M4-M8, tolerance class 6g) ▲ Base: Tighter tolerance 5g ▲ Advanced: Tolerance 4g for critical applications | Improved fit/seal in high-precision tasks | Advanced requires specialized tools |
Head Design | Aesthetic applications, torque-sensitive | Industry Standard: Hex head (prone to rounding) ▲ Base: Round head (ASTM F478, smooth surface) ▲ Advanced: Button head (ASTM F838, reduced profile) | Better aesthetics; less interference in tight spaces | Round heads may need specific tools |
Customization Options | Diverse project requirements | Industry Standard: Limited thread sizes (M4, M6) ▲ Base: M4-M8 in 0.5mm increments ▲ Advanced: Full range + custom lengths | Flexibility for varied applications | Advanced may have longer lead times |
