    ASTM A194

    The ASTM A194 specification covers carbon, alloy and stainless steel nuts intended
    for use in high-pressure and/or high-temperature service. Unless otherwise specified,
    the American National Standard Heavy Hex Series (ANSI B 18.2.2) shall be used.
    Nuts up to and including 1 inch nominal size shall be UNC Series Class  2B fit. Nuts
    over 1 inch nominal size shall be either UNC Series Class 2B fit or 8 UN Series Class
    2B fit. High strength ASTM A194 grade 2H nuts are common in the marketplace and
    are often substituted for ASTM A563 grade DH nuts due to the limited availability of
    DH nuts in certain diameters and finishes.
    A194 Grades
    2 Carbon steel heavy hex nuts
    2H Quenched & tempered carbon steel heavy hex nuts
    2HM Quenched & tempered carbon steel heavy hex nuts, 100% hardness tested
    4 Quenched & tempered carbon-molybdenum heavy hex nuts (withdrawn in 2017)
    7 Quenched & tempered alloy steel heavy hex nuts
    7M Quenched & tempered alloy steel heavy hex nuts, 100% hardness tested
    7L Quenched & tempered alloy steel heavy hex nuts, Charpy impact tested
    8 Stainless AISI 304 heavy hex nuts
    8M Stainless AISI 316 heavy hex nuts

    NOTES: 
    1. The markings shown for all grades of A194 nuts are for cold formed and hot forged nuts. When nuts are machined
    from bar stock, the nut must additionally be marked with the letter 'B'. The letters H and M indicate heat treated nuts.
    2. Properties shown are those of coarse and 8-pitch thread heavy hex nuts.
    3. Hardness numbers are Brinell Hardness.
    4. Nuts that are carbide-solution treated require additional letter A - 8A or 8MA.
    5. All nuts shall bear the manufacturer’s identification mark. Nuts shall be legibly marked on one face to indicate the
    grade and process of the manufacturer. Marking of wrench flats or bearing surfaces is not permitted unless agreed
    upon between manufacturer and purchaser.
    6. Other less common grades exist, but are not listed here.
