RAYCHIN LIMITED

Design Features

• 12-Point Drive: Two overlapped hexagon shapes create 12 points of contact for superior torque transfer.
• Integrated Flange: Flanged underside eliminates need for separate washers and distributes pressure evenly.
• Higher Torque Capability: Handles more torque than socket head or hex head screws.
• No Fluid Traps: Lack of recess prevents trapping of fluid or debris in corrosive environments.
• Space-Efficient: Heads are generally smaller than hex heads, ideal for tight installation spaces.

Application Advantages

• Weight Savings: Smaller head size reduces overall weight in critical applications.
• Cleanability: Smooth flange design prevents debris accumulation in sanitary applications.
• High Preload: Higher torque capability allows greater preload in bolted joints.
• Tool Compatibility: Standard 12-point sockets and wrenches are readily available.
• Thermal Cycling Resistance: Stable design maintains clamp load through temperature changes.

Superior Acid Resistance (825)

Incoloy 825 12 point screws resist 40% H₂SO₄ at 100°C with <0.05mm/year corrosion rate. Excellent performance in phosphoric acid service, including wet process phosphoric acid containing fluoride impurities.

Sour Service Excellence (925)

Incoloy 925 12 point screws offer yield strength up to 760 MPa in aged condition with exceptional resistance to sulfide stress cracking. Qualified per NACE MR0175 for H₂S environments up to 425°C.

Higher Torque Capability

The 12-point drive provides more points of contact than hex or socket drives, allowing higher installation torque without damaging the fastener. Handles more torque than socket head cap screws of comparable size, enabling higher preload in critical joints.

Chloride SCC Immunity

With high nickel content (30-46%), Incoloy 12 point screws have excellent resistance to chloride stress corrosion cracking, making them ideal for marine environments and brackish water applications.

Integrated Flange Design

The flanged underside distributes pressure where the screw meets the surface, eliminating the need for separate washers. Reduces parts count and simplifies assembly in high-temperature and corrosive environments.
