Walid Stainless, headquartered in Tunis, Tunisia, is a trusted manufacturer and supplier of premium stainless steel products. Among their specialized offerings are Stainless Steel 442 Nuts, designed for applications requiring exceptional corrosion resistance, high-temperature stability, and mechanical strength. These nuts are ideal for industrial, chemical, and structural assemblies exposed to challenging environments. At Walid Stainless, every nut is manufactured with precision and undergoes rigorous quality control to ensure consistent performance. Clients rely on 442 Nuts for secure, durable, and reliable fastening solutions, making them an excellent choice for demanding industrial and mechanical projects.
Stainless Steel 442 Nuts are made from a high-chromium ferritic stainless steel alloy containing approximately 17–19% chromium and 0.2–0.5% molybdenum. This composition provides excellent corrosion resistance, high-temperature stability, and resistance to oxidation. The nuts typically exhibit tensile strength between 600–750 MPa and hardness around 180–220 HB. Their ferritic structure ensures wear resistance, dimensional stability, and mechanical durability, making 442 Nuts suitable for industrial, chemical, and structural fastening applications where high-temperature performance and long-term reliability are critical.
