ASTM 310S - EN 1.4845

310S is an austenitic alloy comprised of chromium and nickel, renowned for its robust oxidation, corrosion, and high temperature resistance. Boasting a higher percentage of chromium and nickel, this stainless steel offers superior strength and can operate in high temperatures.

Essential details

Grade 310/310S stainless steel (1.4845) is one of the most widely used grades of heat resistant stainless steel supplied into numerous industry sectors.

The key properties of this material are its high chromium and medium nickel content making its resistance to oxidation, sulfidation and other forms of hot corrosion its main characteristics. Whilst retaining good strength when exposed to high temperatures, like most austenitic grades this grade will also maintain its strength and toughness at sub-zero temperatures.

Overall this grade is an excellent choice for various applications ranging from furnace components to burner tips. 310 / 310S has a maximum dry air service temperature of 1100ºC.

Applications:

Used in a number of applications where the temperature exceeds 550°C, e.g. for equipment and components within: industrial furnace equipment, oil industry equipment, heat treatment baskets, heat exchanges, steam boilers and thermo wells, iron, steel, and non-ferrous industries, engineering industry, energy conversion plants, cement industry.
