Low carbon content stainless steel 310S round bars also include trace levels of chromium, nickel, molybdenum, vanadium, titanium, and niobium. Stainless Steel 310 Round Bars are perfect for building wind turbine towers due to their strength and durability. Manufacturers may now produce stronger, lighter, and more energy-efficient automobiles due to new high-performance stainless steel 310S round bar compositions.
The 310 stainless steel round bar is designed to withstand very high temperatures. The alloy resists oxidation in continuous application operations at temperatures up to 1150 °C. The oxidation resistance of the 310 stainless round bar is advantageous if reducing sulphur fumes are not present in the application environment. In addition to continuous application procedures, Type 310 can be used for intermittent service applications.
In addition to enhancing high-temperature properties, the 310 round bar’s high chromium concentration also offers good corrosion resistance in aquatic environments. For grade 310, the PRE, or pitting resistance number, is close to 25. The 310 stainless steel round bar can withstand seawater at a temperature of about 22 °C.
Application of SS 310 Bars
For the refining of petroleum, grade 310 is used in fluidized bed combustors, ovens, brilliant tubes, tube holders, steam boilers, coal gasifiers, lead pots, etc. Due to its increased resistance to thermal shock and the fact that it contains both nickel and chromium, the grade 310 round bar is not intended for the extinguishing of various fluids. These steels are suitable for applications in reducing sulfur-containing H2S due to their high chromium and medium nickel content. They are widely used in conditions that are mildly carburizing, such as those seen in petrochemical processes. Another heat source that can withstand amalgams should be utilized for more intense carburizing airs.
