A 2HM washer is not a cosmetic add-on under the nut. It spreads clamp load across the flange face during assembly. Its hardness remains below the number your sour-service inspector requires. We press each blank from carbon steel bar with 0.40% carbon minimum. Each blank undergoes liquid quenching before controlled tempering at 620°C or higher. Finished washers consistently measure between 159 and 235 HBW hardness. Buyers needing an ASTM A194 Grade 2HM Washers Supplier in India can order. We supply matching studs, nuts, and washers from one traceable heat. This ensures the complete joint carries one consistent hardness story. Choose plain flat patterns or drawing-based conical, cup, taper profiles. The underlying metallurgy remains identical across every supplied washer profile.

ASTM A194 Grade 2HM Vs 2H Washer – What Actually Changes ?

Different temper. That single change decides whether the joint survives H₂S exposure.

Grade 2HM
  • Hardness held to 159 – 235 HBW
  • Tempered at 620°C minimum
  • Rockwell B scale, 84 – 99 HRB
  • Cleared for sour, H₂S bearing duty
  • Every piece hardness tested
VS
Grade 2H
  • Hardness runs 248 – 327 HBW
  • Tempered from 455°C upward
  • Rockwell C scale, 24 – 35 HRC
  • Sweet service and hot piping only
  • Lot sampling is accepted

Heat Treatment Of Alloy Steel 2HM Flat Washer

Bar To Blank

Carbon bar of 0.40% C minimum blanked or forged into washer discs

Austenitise

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Grade 2HM carbon steel or alloy steel?

It is carbon steel with 0.40% carbon minimum. Buyers often search it as an alloy steel washer because it sits beside alloy.

What hardness must a 2HM washer show?

Between 159 and 235 HBW, equal to 84 to 99 on the Rockwell B scale, with 22 HRC treated as the sour-service ceiling.

Why is 2HM tempered so much higher than 2H?

Grade 2H needs only 455°C. Grade 2HM must reach 620°C so the structure softens enough to resist sulphide stress cracking.

Can I use a 2H washer with a B7M stud?

No. The harder washer breaks the intent of the sour-service joint and will normally be rejected at inspection.

Do you supply an ASTM A194 Gr 2HM Taper Washer?

Yes. Taper, cup and spherical profiles are pressed to your drawing angle with the same certified heat.

Can plating be done after heat treatment?

Yes, with controlled baking. We keep plating temperatures well below the temper point so hardness is not disturbed.
