Nitronic 60 (UNS S21800) is a nitrogen-strengthened austenitic stainless steel with elevated silicon and manganese additions. It is recognised for resistance to galling and wear in selected metal-to-metal contact applications.
Anti-galling does not mean galling-proof. Contact load, mating alloy, surface finish, lubrication and assembly practice still matter. EMG reviews specified Nitronic 60 fasteners and machined parts as an engineered assembly requirement, not a blanket replacement for conventional stainless.

S21800
Anti-galling austenitic stainless for selected threaded, sliding and wear-contact parts.
Specify product form, material condition, required properties and the mating material.
Reference designations are not stock, certified equivalence or guaranteed service suitability. Final product requirements govern every quotation.

Specified bolts, nuts and threaded components subject to repeated assembly or stainless-on-stainless contact.

Sliding-contact parts where galling resistance is an explicit design requirement.

Shafts, pins, bushes and sleeves with controlled fits, finishes and mating-pair selection.
Review thread engagement, surface finish, contact stress, lubrication and installation practice alongside the material. No alloy eliminates every seizure mechanism.
Nitronic 50 and Nitronic 60 are different alloys with different UNS identifiers and performance priorities. A brand-family name is not sufficient for a purchase order.
Wear resistance does not establish suitability for seawater, concentrated chemicals or sour service. Confirm the actual exposure and acceptance requirements.
For Nitronic 60 fasteners or machined components, send your drawing, quantity, material condition and required delivery date. EMG confirms sourcing, partner capacity, inspection records and lead time against your RFQ.

UNS, product standard, heat treatment and service requirements.
Specify EN 10204 3.1 / 3.2, PMI and witness requirements where applicable.
