Project Description

310S (UNS S31008 / W.Nr. 1.4845)

310S (UNS S31008 / W.Nr. 1.4845) is an austenitic chrome-nickel stainless steel, which features good oxidation resistance, corrosion resistance and acid and alkali resistance. Besides, it embodies excellent high temperature resistance. With high content of chromium and nickel elements, i.e., 25Cr-20Ni, 310S embodies much better creep strength which allows it to work continuously at high temperature (1150 ℃). The high temperature resistant steel tube is specially used for manufacturing electric heating tubes and the like. severely cold worked. It maintains strength at high temperatures as well as sub-zero temperatures.
