Abstract: There is provided a screw treated by a chemical conversion coating of trivalent chromium having a torque characteristic approximately equivalent to a screw of a hexavalent chromate treatment. For the purpose, on a surface of a bolt, a zinc plating layer is formed by a zinc plating treatment. On the layer, a chemical conversion coating of trivalent chromium is also formed by a treatment of chemical conversion coatings of trivalent chromium. The coating is formed to be thin and soft so that the zinc-based plating layer can be exposed on the surface due to rubbing off of the chemical conversion coating of trivalent chromium at a contact portion to a fastened member of the bolt by tightening the bolt.

Abstract: Disclosed is a high-strength bolt having a tensile strength of 1,200 N/mm2 or more and superior in delayed fracture resistance and relaxation resistance, prepared by wire-drawing a bolt steel containing the following elements: C: 0.5 to 1.0% (mass %, the same shall apply hereinafter), Si: 0.55 to 3%, Mn: 0.2 to 2%, P: 0.03% or less (but not 0%), S: 0.03% or less (but not 0%), and Al: 0.3% or less (but not 0%), and containing proeutectoid ferrite, proeutectoid cementite, bainite and martensite at a total areal rate of less than 20% and pearlite in balance; cold-heading the wire into a bolt shape; and then bluing the bolt in a temperature range of 100 to 500° C.

Abstract: A high-strength bolt having excellent delayed fracture resistance and stress relaxation resistance in addition to a tensile strength of 1200 N/mm2 or higher is disclosed. A steel material for the high-strength bolt includes C: 0.50 to 1.0% by mass (hereinafter, referred to simply as “%”), Si: 0.5% or less (not including 0%), Mn: 0.2 to 1%, P: 0.03% or less (including 0%) and S: 0.03% or less (including 0%). The steel material has pro-eutectoid ferrite, pro-eutectoid cementite, bainite and martensite structures at less than 20% in total and a pearlite structure as the remainder. The high-strength bolt is produced by drawing the steel material severely to obtain a steel wire, forming the steel wire into a bolt shape through a cold heading, and subjecting the shaped steel wire to a blueing treatment at a temperature within a range of 100 to 400° C.
