Bolts & nuts in Nigeria

What actually moves in this market.

Nigerian oil and gas buying is specification-led in a way the rest of the continent is not. A193 B7 studs, A194 2H nuts, A320 L7 where the service runs cold, with PMI and hardness reports attached. Substituting a metric equivalent because it is available is not acceptable and we do not offer it.

Documentation discipline decides how the shipment goes. Form M, PAAR and SONCAP have to be right before arrival, because Lagos port congestion turns a paperwork gap into weeks of demurrage rather than a phone call.

Landed into Nigeria

Routing, lead time and specification.

Corridor

Lagos (Apapa and Tin Can Island) serves the west and the interior; Onne and Port Harcourt serve the oil and gas belt directly.

Lead time

7–11 weeks door to door. Port congestion at Lagos is the dominant risk, so complete documentation before arrival matters more here than anywhere else on the continent.

Duty and conformity

ECOWAS common external tariff on HS 7318 plus VAT, levies and Form M / PAAR processing. SONCAP certification is required for imported fasteners and is arranged at origin.

Coating for Nigerian exposure

Lagos and the Niger Delta combine salt air, humidity and industrial atmosphere. Hot-dip galvanised on structural work and stainless 316 on exposed process fixings.

Questions from Nigerian buyers

Bolts & nuts into Nigeria — asked and answered.

Do you handle SONCAP on a fastener consignment?
Yes. SONCAP certification for HS 7318 imports is arranged at origin and ships with the consignment alongside your Form M and PAAR documentation.
Can you supply ASTM rather than DIN?
Yes, and for process work we insist on it. A193 B7 studs with A194 2H nuts, A320 L7 for low temperature, certified to the grade rather than cross-referenced to a metric near-equivalent.
How do you manage Lagos port congestion?
By having complete documentation before the vessel arrives. Congestion cannot be avoided, but the avoidable part — a document query while the box sits — can be.
