Why BUMAX®?

Can I replace 8.8 & 10.9 steel fasteners with BUMAX?
Yes — BUMAX 88 & 109 are the only real stainless alternatives to carbon steel, guaranteeing the same UTS and yield as the carbon-steel grades.
Can I get something stronger than 10.9?
Yes — we can supply stainless to order at strengths up to Grade 17.9. Called BUMAX ULTRA, these are the strongest stainless bolts in the world.
Better corrosion resistance than A4/316?
Yes — thanks to its chemical composition, BUMAX has a minimum PRE value over 25.7, making it safe in a marine environment for 10 years, well beyond regular A4/316.
