310S Stainless Steel has excellent resistance to oxidation under constant temperatures to 2000°F.
Alloy 310S, like 309S, is best known for high temperature service. Both alloys work well up to 2000 °F, especially if oxidation resistance is required. 309 and 310S are the premier high temperature performers among the common stainless grades available from our stock. High nickel and chromium content and a coarse grain structure result in:
310S stainless steel provides superior corrosion resistance properties against carburization, oxidation and other conditions. It is fabricated to offer excellent performance in the elevated temperature conditions on the industrial level that need high resistance to carburization and thermal cycling corrosion. It shows austenitic nature in the whole temperatures and doesn’t show embrittlement.The excellent strength and resistance to high temperature oxidation properties are purposeful in the commercial incinerators, kilns and food processing equipments.
Alloy 310 and 310S stainless steel fittings, flanges and pipes are used in the environmental, chemical processing and refining industries. Some examples of equipment composed of 310 stainless steel include incinerators, furnaces, burners, kilns, annealing and carburizing boxes, combustion chambers, salt pots, thermo wells, gas turbines, retorts, flairs and equipment to handle sulfite liquors.
Cyclic conditions reduce its oxidation resistance, and a maximum operating temperature of 1900°F is generally recommended if cycling is involved.
Having a lower coefficient of expansion than most 300 stainless steels, 310S may be used in operations involving moderately severe thermal cycling, such as rapid air cooling. It is not usually recommended for liquid quenching. Although 310S has less resistance to absorption of carbon and nitrogen than the higher alloys such as 330 and 333, it is widely used in moderately carburizing atmospheres such as encountered in petro-chem plants.
Because of ts high chromium and medium nickel contents, 310S may be used in atmospheres containng moderate amounts of sulfur.
310 plate contains no more than 0.25% carbon while 310S contains at most 0.08% carbon. 310H stainless steel is comprised of between 0.04% and 0.1% carbon. 310, 310S and 310H stainless steel plate all contain 2.0% manganese, 0.045% phosphorous and 0.30% sulfur.
