Types of Corrosion Affecting Fasteners
Content coming soon.
| Corrosion Type | Mechanism | Risk Level | Prevention |
|---|---|---|---|
| Uniform | Surface material loss | Low-Medium | Coating thickness |
| Galvanic | Dissimilar metal contact | High | Same metal or insulation |
| Crevice | Oxygen depletion in gaps | Medium-High | Sealants, proper torque |
| Stress Corrosion | Tension + chlorides | Critical | Avoid high-grade in marine |
| Pitting | Localized anodic attack | Medium | Stainless steel upgrade |
Coating and Material Options for Corrosion Resistance

| 5 - Superior | Zn-Al Alloy | 1000-2000 | 2.0x | Marine, extreme |
| 6 - Maximum | SS A4-80 | 5000+ | 4-5x | Chemical, subsea |
Corrosion Resistance Selection Strategy by Environment
Content coming soon.
| ISO Category | Environment | Recommended Protection | Expected Life |
|---|---|---|---|
| C2 | Rural inland, low humidity | Zinc plated | 10-15 years |
| C3 | Urban, moderate coastal | Hot-dip galvanized | 15-25 years |
| C4 | Industrial, coastal | HDG or Zn-Al alloy | 15-25 years |
| C5 | Extreme marine/industrial | Zn-Al alloy or SS A4 | 25+ years |
Maintenance and Inspection of Corroded Fasteners

How can I tell if a galvanized bolt needs replacement?
Replace when: (1) more than 25% of the surface shows red rust (not white zinc oxidation), (2) the bolt head shows significant material loss or rounding, (3) the zinc coating has blistered or flaked off in large areas, or (4) the bolt fails a torque verification test.
Is it okay to mix galvanized and stainless steel fasteners?
Not recommended. The galvanic couple between zinc and stainless steel will accelerate zinc corrosion. If mixing is unavoidable, use insulating washers (nylon or EPDM) between the dissimilar metals to break the electrical circuit.
