Prior to 2000, the galvanized barrel bolts were hot dipped and had a solid brass shoot and knob. Over the years, this product has changed from a hot dipped galvanized finish to a mechanically galvanized finish, and the solid brass shoot and knob has been replaced by a stainless steel shoot and knob. Our current stock of galvanized barrel bolts have a mechanically galvanized finish, and a stainless steel shoot and knob (with the exception of the 6" size, which has a solid brass shoot and knob).
The most common grade of stainless steel hardware items is type 18-8 (T18-8). 18-8 Designates 300 series stainless steel that is comprised of approximately 18 percent chromium and 8 percent nickel, and the remainder being mainley iron. T304 Stainless steel is a 300 series with a minimum of 18 percent chromium, and 8 percent nickel. The 300 series grades perform well in a corrosive environment, and although not the ideal grade for hardware in a marine environment (T316 being the prefered grade for hardware in a chloride environment), in many cases the common T18-8 stainless steel hardware items are a practical option.
All of the stainless steel barrel bolts we stock at this time are made of T304 material.
