ASTM F594 specifies the chemical and mechanical parameters of stainless steel nuts for use with ASTM F593 fasteners, with diameters ranging from 1/4 to 1-1/2 inches, inclusive. These nuts come in seven different alloy groups and are designed to be used in a variety of applications. Here is a list of the most prevalent grades in the ASTM F594 standard. Because they're less common, a few more ASTM F594 grades aren't listed here. The mechanical table is confined to the most common alloy groups 1 and 2, while the chemical table is limited to the most common alloy grades used for each alloy group.
