Nickel 201 U bolts are externally threaded fasteners with an integral head, manufactured per ASME B18.2.1, ISO 4014/4017, and DIN 933/931. TorqBolt produces Nickel 201 U bolts in metric (M6–M100) and imperial (1/4"–4") diameters with custom lengths from 10 mm up to 3000 mm.
Nickel 201 U 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.
Nickel 201 U 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.
TorqBolt can produce Nickel 201 U 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.
Commercially-pure nickel grades (UNS N02200, N02201) are used where the application demands maximum nickel chemistry purity: electrical conductivity, magnetostriction, hot-caustic resistance, or food / pharmaceutical contact. Pure nickel is non-magnetic above its Curie point, weldable without filler in thin sections, and resistant to dry chlorine, fluorine, and hot caustic solutions where stainless steels fail.
Nickel 200 (N02200, >99% Ni, max 0.15% C) is the general-purpose grade for chemical-process and electroplating equipment. Nickel 201 (N02201, max 0.02% C) is the low-carbon variant required for service above 315°C to prevent graphitization that would destroy mechanical properties. Nickel 205 is the magnetic-grade variant. Nickel 270 (N02270) is high-purity electronics grade.
Pure nickel fasteners are supplied per ASTM B160 (rod/bar) and AMS 4730 with EN 10204 3.1 / 3.2 certificates including chemistry, hardness (HV 100-160 annealed, up to 250 cold-worked), and tensile testing. NACE MR0175 sour-service is qualified in the annealed condition. Welding uses pure-nickel filler (ENi-1) with copper-oxide-free flux to prevent weld embrittlement.
