17-4 Ph Stainless Steel Eye Bolts manufactured at TorqBolt are high strength, good corrosion resistance, good mechanical properties at temperatures up to 600°F (316°C).
Dimensional standards as per DIN 580,ISO 3266, are provided.
The raw material of these fasteners is classified as Martensitic Precipitation Hardening stainless steel. Being a PED certified Fasteners Manufacturer by TUV Rheinland,our fasteners are accompanied with EN 10204 3.1/3.2 certification. 17-4PH Eye Bolts are available in hot forged,cold forged and bar stock machined conditions depending upon the order quantity.
17 4 PH Stainless Steel Eye bolts are externally threaded fasteners with an integral head, manufactured per ASME B18.2.1, ISO 4014/4017, and DIN 933/931. TorqBolt produces 17 4 PH Stainless Steel Eye bolts in metric (M6–M100) and imperial (1/4"–4") diameters with custom lengths from 10 mm up to 3000 mm.
Head Styles Available
Hex head — ASME B18.2.1, the workhorse for general bolting
Heavy hex head — thicker head for high-load joints, ASTM A325 / A490 patterns
Socket head cap (SHCS) — ASME B18.3 / DIN 912, ideal where space is limited
17 4 PH Stainless Steel Eye bolts are supplied with full or partial threading. Full-thread (UNC, UNF, ISO metric coarse/fine) for tension-only joints; partial-thread shank for shear loads where the unthreaded grip carries the load. Thread fits per ASME B1.1 (Class 2A) or ISO 965 (6g) by default; tighter Class 3A / 4h6h fits available on request. Engagement length follows the 1.5×D rule for tapped holes; 1.0×D minimum on through-bolting.
Mechanical Performance
17 4 PH Stainless Steel Eye bolts achieve characteristic tensile strength, yield, and elongation per the source-material spec, with proof-load testing and hardness verification per ASTM F606 / ISO 898-1. Torque-tension calibration is published per ASME PCC-1 for critical joints. Each lot ships with EN 10204 3.1 (or 3.2 on request) certificates listing chemistry, mechanicals, hardness, and dimensional inspection.
Custom Configurations
TorqBolt can produce 17 4 PH Stainless Steel Eye bolts to drawing, with non-standard heads, drilled-shank variants, double-end, captive, or matched-set configurations. Coatings include zinc, PTFE, Xylan, hot-dip galvanized, and electroless nickel. NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156 sour-service certification on request.
Precipitation-Hardening (PH) Stainless Steels
Precipitation-hardening (PH) stainless steels combine the corrosion resistance of austenitic stainless with the high strength of martensitic grades. A two-step heat treatment — solution anneal followed by ageing at 480-620°C — precipitates Cu, Ti, or Al-rich phases that lock the matrix at tensile strengths up to 1300 MPa with minimal distortion.
17-4 PH (UNS S17400 / AMS 5643) is the dominant grade: Cu-precipitation hardened, with corrosion roughly equivalent to AISI 304. Five standard ageing conditions H900 (highest strength), H925, H1025, H1075, H1150 trade strength against fracture toughness. 15-5 PH (S15500) is the through-thickness-tougher variant with reduced delta-ferrite. 13-8 PH (S13800) and 17-7 PH (S17700) are higher-strength variants for aerospace + spring fasteners.
PH fasteners are supplied per ASTM A693 / AMS 5643 with EN 10204 3.1 / 3.2 certification including hardness (HRC 32-48 by condition), tensile, and Charpy impact. NACE MR0175 service for PH grades is restricted to specific heat-treat conditions (H1150 only for 17-4) due to SSC susceptibility. Welding requires post-weld solution + age cycle to recover full strength.
