Note that these are cad plated. If they are cad, then they are not alloy.

Given that they are cad plated, then it is unlikely they are even Grade 8. Grade 5 exists at several providers on the Internet - almost universally cad plated.

The prospective customers may not like the price but Snyder's, or anyone else for that matter if they have the money and a need for a large quantity, can have nuts manufactured to whatever strength specs they desire within manufacturing capabilities, good as Henry's original or better, and have them cad plated (sidestep the EPA) or whatever plated including but not limited to zinc, combination zinc/alloy, decorative or just left as plain steel.
