Description
5/8″ B7 Stud with 2H Nuts – Blue PTFE Coated
5/8″ ASTM A193 Grade B7 studs with ASTM A194 Grade 2H heavy hex nuts provide high-strength bolting for pressure-rated flange connections, valves, fittings, and industrial piping systems. The blue PTFE coating provides added corrosion protection while helping reduce friction and galling during installation.

Why Choose Blue PTFE-Coated B7 Studs?
ASTM A193 Grade B7 is commonly used for high-strength flange bolting in industrial pressure piping systems. The blue PTFE coating provides a low-friction protective surface that can help reduce galling during installation, provide additional corrosion protection, and make future disassembly easier than comparable plain-finish bolting.
Frequently Asked Questions
+ What flange sizes use a 5/8″ B7 stud?
For the standard applications covered by this selector, 2″, 2-1/2″, 3″, 3-1/2″, and 4″ Class 150 flanges use 5/8″ diameter studs. Class 300 and Class 600 applications include 3/4″, 1″, 1-1/4″, and 2″.
+ How do I know which 5/8″ stud length I need?
Use the GetPipe Flange Bolting Assistant near the top of this page. Select your pressure class, nominal flange size, flange facing, flange type, and number of connections. The assistant will provide the recommended stud length, GetPipe SKU, studs per connection, and total quantity required.
+ What flange types can I use with these B7 studs?
B7 studs are commonly used with industrial flange connections including weld-neck, slip-on, threaded, socket-weld, lap-joint, and blind flanges. The required stud diameter is determined by flange size and pressure class, while the required stud length depends on the complete bolted joint.
+ Can I use these studs with weld-neck flanges?
Yes. ASTM A193 Grade B7 studs with ASTM A194 Grade 2H nuts are commonly used in bolted weld-neck flange connections. Use the sizing assistant to identify the applicable stud size and standard reference length.
+ Can I use these studs with slip-on flanges?
Yes. These B7 studs are commonly used with bolted slip-on flange connections. Verify the entire joint thickness when selecting stud length, especially when the connection includes non-standard gasket thickness, washers, insulating kits, or other components.
+ Can I use these studs with blind flanges?
Yes, but blind flange thickness can affect the required stud length. The sizing assistant identifies standard reference bolting, but the complete joint thickness should be checked before ordering studs for a blind-flange connection.
+ Can I use these studs on raised-face flanges?
Yes. The stud lengths displayed by the GetPipe sizing assistant are standard raised-face reference lengths for the listed flange sizes and pressure classes.
+ Can I use these studs on flat-face flanges?
The stud diameter may be correct for the selected flange size and pressure class, but verify the complete bolted joint thickness before selecting the stud length. Flat-face construction can differ from the raised-face reference length shown by the selector.
+ How many 5/8″ B7 studs do I need?
The required quantity depends on flange size and pressure class. Most 5/8″ applications in this selector require either 4 or 8 studs per flange connection. Use the + or − buttons to select the number of complete flange connections, and the GetPipe assistant will calculate the total stud quantity automatically.
+ What if my flange requires a stud larger than 5/8″?
Move to the larger stud diameter specified for the flange. For example, a standard 5″ Class 150 flange uses a 3/4″ diameter stud. Using a longer 5/8″ stud does not replace the required larger diameter.
+ Do these B7 studs include nuts?
Yes. These studs are supplied with ASTM A194 Grade 2H heavy hex nuts.
+ Why use blue PTFE-coated B7 studs?
Blue PTFE coating provides additional corrosion protection and a lower-friction surface that can help reduce galling during assembly. The coating can also make future disassembly easier than comparable plain-finish bolting.
