ROUND BARS

The stainless steel 310 round bar is designed for high temperature applications. The alloy resists oxidation in continuous application processes where the temperatures can rise up to 1150 °C. The oxidation resistance of the 310 stainless round bar is useful provided reducing sulphur gases are not present in the application environment. Besides being used in a continuous application process, the ASTM a276 type 310 can also be used for intermittent service applications, where the temperatures could rise up to 1040 °C. SS DEALERS ROUND BAR

Generally, the SS 310 round bar is used in those environments where the applications of the alloys involves being present in moist corrodents. These moist corrodents are in a temperature range lower than that which is normally considered as high temperature. Like other austenitic stainless steel grades, the aisi 310 round bar tends to have excellent toughness, even down to cryogenic temperatures. Although other grades of stainless steel are normally used in applications involving a cryogenic environment. SS DEALERS ROUND BAR

The high chromium content added in the 310 round bar  has not only been intended to increase high temperature properties but also gives these grades good corrosion resistance in aqueous media. The PRE or pitting resistance number of the astm a276 gr 310 is approximately 25. While the seawater resistance of the stainless steel 310 round bar is about 22 °C, similar to that of stainless steel grade 316. SS DEALERS ROUND BAR

Although the 310 stainless steel flat bar is subject to stress corrosion cracking, it is known to be more resistant as compared to stainless steel grades 304 or 316
