Index stud with hexagon collar 6

Grade 1.4305 is a sulphurised austenitic stainless steel of the A1 type. It is specifically intended for machining. Due to its high sulphur content of up to 0.35 per cent, this material has lower corrosion resistance than comparable stainless steels with a typical sulphur content of no more than 0.015 per cent. It is not suitable for use in non-oxidising acids and media or in chloride-containing environments (such as marine environments, etc.).

Stainless steel refers to alloyed or unalloyed steels that contain at least 10.5% chromium and less than 1.2% carbon. Colloquially, stainless steel is also referred to as stainless steel (NiRo), although not all stainless steel is the same as "stainless".
