310S Stainless Steel Pipe is superior than 304 or 309 stainless steel in most environments, because it has high nickel and chromium content. It has high corrosion resistance and strength in temperatures up to 1149°C (2100°F). The following datasheet gives more details about grade 310S stainless steel. Stainless steels are known as high-alloy steels. They are classified into ferritic, austenitic, and martensitic steels based on their crystalline structure.

Stainless Steel 310S Pipes can be easily welded and processed using conventional methods. Our offered ranges of pipes have excellent flexible nature and tensile strength to serve in diverse industrial applications. Our pipes also provide ease of fabricability. The alloy offers improved creep and stress corrosion resistance. 

Stainless Steel 310S Pipes have anti-abrasion features that help serve in high strength areas without further cracking. We manufacture all our products with full precision and follow utmost quality measures to serve with an excellent quality array of Pipes. The professional expert team of Vardhman Tube Mill is completely skilled and qualified to bring the best quality product for the client's use. 

Applications of Grade 310/310S Stainless Steel

Typical Applications Grade 310/310S is used in fluidised bed combustors, kilns, radiant tubes, tube hangers for petroleum refining and steam boilers, coal gasifier internal components, lead pots, thermowells, refractory anchor bolts, burners and combustion chambers, retorts, muffles, annealing covers, saggers, food processing equipment, cryogenic structures.

Properties of Grade 310/310S Stainless Steel

These grades contain 25% chromium and 20% nickel, making them highly resistant to oxidation and corrosion. Grade 310S is a lower carbon version, less prone to embrittlement and sensitisation in service. The high chromium and medium nickel content make these steels capable for applications in reducing sulphur atmospheres containing H2S. They are widely used in moderately carburising atmospheres, as encountered in petrochemical environments. For more severe carburising atmospheres other heat resisting alloys should be selected. Grade 310 is not recommended for frequent liquid quenching as it suffers from thermal shock. The grade is often used in cryogenic applications, due to its toughness and low magnetic permeability.

In common with other austenitic stainless steels, these grades cannot be hardened by heat treatment. They can be hardened by cold work, but this is rarely practiced.
