HDG fasteners vs Stainless steel fastners
HDG fasteners vs Stainless steel fastners
(OP)
In one of the Northsea Offshore project, as per NORSOK standard HDG fasteners shall be used. For one of the package, vendor has used Stainless steel SS316 fasteners. The application of the package is sea water filtration and the operating temperature is less than 50 deg c.
Client is not accepting to use SS fasteners and insists for HDG.
Is the SS bolts are not better than the HDG bolts for the marine atmosphere ? Any specific reason why it should not at all used? Can the usage of SS316 fasteners be technically justified with support?
Thanks to confirm please.

There are a number of papers on the collapse of roofs of public swimming pools that provide insight to this subject.
This is not a concern in aqueous environments, but in cyclically moist environments things can change significantly.
