Operating from the heart of Addis Ababa, Desta Steel stands as a trusted partner for Ethiopia’s growing industries, supplying critical components built for resilience. We take pride in our Alloy Steel Grade 8.8 Bolts, a product line engineered to meet the rigorous demands of modern construction and manufacturing. Understanding that the integrity of your projects rests on the strength of their smallest parts, we are committed to providing fasteners that deliver unwavering performance and reliability, ensuring your structures and machinery are secured with confidence.
The strength of these Grade 8.8 bolts comes from a specific alloy steel composition and a controlled heat treatment process. This results in a tensile strength of 800 MPa and a yield strength of 640 MPa, striking an excellent balance between high strength and good ductility. This means the bolts are strong enough to handle significant loads without being brittle, offering a dependable solution for a wide range of demanding applications where consistent performance is non-negotiable.
