Using 304 stainless steel bolts on bicycles offers several benefits:

1. Corrosion Resistance: 304 stainless steel is highly resistant to corrosion, making it ideal for use in outdoor and marine environments. This means that bolts made from 304 stainless steel will withstand exposure to moisture, rain, and other environmental factors better than many other types of steel.
2. Strength: It provides good strength and durability, suitable for various applications on bicycles where robust fastening is necessary without adding excessive weight.
3. Aesthetic Appeal: The smooth, shiny finish of 304 stainless steel bolts adds a sleek and professional look to bicycles. This can enhance the overall appearance of the bike, especially when used in visible areas like handlebars, stems, or seat posts.
4. Low Maintenance: Stainless steel requires minimal maintenance compared to other materials. It does not need to be painted or coated to prevent rust, which simplifies upkeep for bike owners.
5. Non-Reactivity: 304 stainless steel is non-reactive with typical bike frame materials like aluminium or carbon fibre, reducing the risk of galvanic corrosion when in contact with these materials.
6. Longevity: Bolts made from 304 stainless steel are durable and have a long lifespan, making them a reliable choice for securing critical components on bicycles.
