    Stud bolts and hex bolts are commonly used for flanged connections in the petrochemical industry. Stud bolts have a threaded rod with two hexagonal nuts, while hex bolts have a hexagonal head with a single nut. The number, diameter, and length of bolts for a flange connection depend on the number of bolt holes in the flange as well as the flange type and pressure class. Stud bolt lengths are defined by ASME B16.5 and refer to the effective threaded length measured parallel to the axis from the first thread to the first thread, excluding the chamfered ends.

    Bolts and Nuts for flanged connections

    Types of Bolts
    In Petro and chemical industry for flange connections Stud Bolts and Hex Bolts are
    used. The Stud Bolt is a threaded rod with 2 heavy hexagon nuts, while the Hex Bolt
    has a head with one nut. Nuts and head are both six sided.

    Stud Bolts general


    The quantity of bolts for a flange connection will be given by the number of bolt holes in
    a flange, diameter and length of bolts is dependent of flange type and Pressure Class of
    flange.
    Stud Bolt length are defined in ASME B16.5 standard. The length in inches is equal to
    the effective thread length measured parallel to the axis, from the first to the first thread
    without the chamfers (points). First thread is defined as the intersection of the major
    diameter of the thread with the base of the point.
