With a strong commitment to excellence, the company blends cutting-edge manufacturing techniques with outstanding customer service, establishing itself as a reliable partner for stainless steel needs.
The Stainless Steel 310 Bars and Rods are made up of 24–26% chromium and 19–22% nickel, along with trace amounts of carbon, manganese, silicon, and phosphorus. This unique blend gives them remarkable oxidation and corrosion resistance, especially at elevated temperatures. Typically, these materials showcase a tensile strength ranging from 515 to 720 MPa, a yield strength between 205 and 310 MPa, and an elongation of 40% or more. Thanks to their excellent thermal stability, these bars and rods maintain their structural integrity even in continuous operations at temperatures up to 1100°C. Their austenitic structure provides outstanding formability, toughness, and resistance to scaling in high-temperature settings.
