High temperature resistance: – 310S stainless steel is designed to withstand high temperature environments, with maximum operating temperatures up to 1150°C (2102°F).
– The alloy’s high chromium content (24-26%) and nickel additions (19-22%) provide excellent resistance to oxidation and scaling at high temperatures.
– This makes 310S stainless steel hollow structural profiles ideal for applications exposed to high temperatures, such as furnace components, heat exchangers and industrial process equipment.

Corrosion Resistance: – 310S stainless steel has excellent resistance to a variety of corrosive environments, including oxidizing acids, sulfur-containing compounds, and high-temperature chlorides.
– The alloy’s high chromium and nickel content and the addition of small amounts of molybdenum give it excellent corrosion resistance.
– This corrosion resistance makes 310S stainless steel hollow structural profiles suitable for a variety of industrial applications, such as the chemical processing, petrochemical and power generation industries that are frequently exposed to harsh environments.

Mechanical Properties: – 310S stainless steel has good mechanical strength, with typical tensile strength of 515 to 725 MPa and yield strength of 205 to 515 MPa.
– The alloy also has good ductility and toughness, maintaining good ductility and toughness even at high temperatures.
– These mechanical properties make 310S stainless steel hollow structural profiles suitable for applications requiring high-temperature structural integrity and load-bearing capacity, such as industrial equipment and process piping.

Solderability and Fabrication: – 310S stainless steel can be easily welded using a variety of techniques, including TIG, MIG, and Stick Arc Welding (SMAW).
– The material has good ductility and formability, allowing easy fabrication of hollow structural profiles including bending, rolling and machining to produce various shapes and sizes.
– This manufacturing flexibility enables the design and construction of complex high-temperature structures and equipment using 310S stainless steel hollow sections.

Thermal expansion and thermal conductivity: – Compared with other stainless steel grades, 310S stainless steel has a relatively high coefficient of thermal expansion, which should be considered in the design of high temperature applications.
– The alloy also has moderate thermal conductivity, which may be a factor in the design of heat transfer systems or components.

310S stainless steel has excellent oxidation resistance, corrosion resistance and good mechanical properties, making it an excellent choice for high-temperature hollow structural profiles. These properties make 310S stainless steel hollow structural profiles ideally suited for a variety of industrial applications, particularly in environments involving high temperatures and corrosive conditions, such as the chemical, petrochemical and power generation industries.
