The Stainless Steel 348 fasteners produced by Ed Stainless are primarily made up of iron, chromium (about 18-20%), and nickel (around 10-12%), with some titanium added to improve stability at high temperatures. This alloy is known for its excellent corrosion resistance, impressive strength, and ability to withstand oxidation. In terms of mechanics, these fasteners boast a tensile strength of roughly 75 ksi and maintain their toughness even in extreme temperature conditions. The inclusion of titanium helps stabilize the alloy against intergranular corrosion, making it perfect for heat-treated applications where durability and mechanical integrity are vital.
