Product Description:
310 and 310S stainless steel tubes are high-performance austenitic stainless steels with excellent resistance to oxidation and corrosion at elevated temperatures. These grades are widely used in high-temperature industrial applications requiring strength and durability under harsh conditions.
310 Stainless Steel Tubes
Grade 310 stainless steel is known for its high chromium and nickel content, which enhances its ability to withstand high temperatures and resist oxidation. It is particularly suitable for use in extreme heat environments.
Key Features
- High-Temperature Strength: Withstands continuous service at temperatures up to 1150°C.
- Oxidation Resistance: Exceptional resistance in oxidizing and reducing environments.
- Good Corrosion Resistance: Performs well in mildly corrosive environments.
- Ease of Fabrication: Readily weldable and machinable.
Applications
- Furnace components
- Heat exchangers
- Kilns and refractory anchor bolts
- Gas turbines and combustors
- Petrochemical industry piping
310S Stainless Steel Tubes
Grade 310S is a low-carbon version of 310, offering improved weldability and reduced risk of intergranular corrosion. It is especially suitable for applications requiring frequent exposure to high temperatures and welding processes.
Key Features
- Improved Weldability: Low carbon content minimizes carbide precipitation.
- High Oxidation Resistance: Performs well at high temperatures, up to 1040°C in continuous service.
- Enhanced Toughness: Maintains strength and toughness in low-temperature environments.
- Corrosion Resistance: Excellent in environments with mild acids and alkalies.
Applications
- Power plants and industrial boilers
- Chemical processing equipment
- Cryogenic structures
- Food processing equipment
- Marine and offshore applications
