Why do stainless steel screws tend to seize up easily?
I will introduce thermal conductivity and thermal expansion rate in a blog format!
The phenomenon where screws expand due to the frictional heat generated when tightening or loosening them, causing the male and female threads to seize and become immovable, is called "seizing." Seizing is also referred to as "galling," and stainless steel, in particular, has a tendency to seize easily due to its inherent properties. The causes of this are attributed to its low thermal conductivity and high thermal expansion rate. *For more detailed information, please refer to the related links.
