Zinc Plated 10.9 Fasteners
Zinc Plated 10.9 Fasteners
(OP)
I'm looking for a source for zinc plated hex head 10.9 fasteners, (socket heads are not desireable) and having some difficulty finding suppliers.
I'm aware of potential issues with hydrogen embrittlement, but am under the impression that proper processing can eliminate this concern... Presumably something any reputable bolt manufacturer would do as a matter of course
Am I correct in my understanding of the embrittlement issue, and could anyone suggest a source for hex heads?
Thanks in advance

What quantity do you need? If it is small, then distributors like Fastenal or even McMaster-Carr stock these items. Buyer beware.
If you need large quantities, then you can work with a manufacturer directly. Large manufacturers include Acument, SPS, and Nucor.

QQ-Z-325C Zinc coating, electrodeposited requires 75% of ultimate "notched" tensile strength of the material for at least 200 hours (4 times the 48 hour). Another option is 115% of the maximum designed load of the part for at least 200 hours.
