High-Temperature 310 Stainless Steel Channel: Premium Solutions for Extreme Industrial Applications

For industries requiring unparalleled resistance to extreme heat, corrosion, and mechanical stress, the ​310 stainless steel channel stands as a superior choice. With its high chromium (25%) and nickel (20%) content, this alloy outperforms standard grades like 304/316 in temperatures exceeding 2100°F (1150°C). Available in ​stainless steel channel sizes from 1"x1" to 8"x4", and customizable ​stainless steel u channel sizes, this product is engineered for critical applications in furnaces, aerospace, and chemical processing. Below, we dive into its technical specifications, industry-specific uses, and SEO-optimized insights to enhance your purchasing decision.


Technical Specifications: Engineered for Extreme Performance

Category Details
Material Composition ​310 Stainless Steel: 25% Cr, 20% Ni, 1.5% Mn, 0.25% C. Compliant with ASTM A276 and ASME SB-409 for high-temperature stability.
Dimensions & Sizes ​Standard Sizes: 1"x1" to 8"x4" (height x width). ​Custom stainless steel u channel sizes up to 12"x6" available for specialized projects. Tolerance: ±0.5mm.
Thickness & Durability 1mm (thin-walled ducts) to 20mm (heavy-duty structural supports). Ideal for thermal expansion management in cyclic environments.
Surface Finishes ​Mill Finish (as-rolled), ​Brushed Stainless Steel U Channel (anti-glare, Ra 0.4 µm), ​Mirror Polish (for aesthetic appeal), ​Heat-Treated (scaling resistance).
Certifications ISO 9001, RoHS, NACE MR-0175. Mill Test Certificates (MTC) with full traceability and chemical analysis.

Why 310 Stainless Steel Outperforms Competitors

  • ​Unmatched Heat Resistance: Retains structural integrity at 2100°F (1150°C), making it ideal for furnace trays, radiant tubes, and burner nozzles.
  • ​Corrosion Resilience: Resists sulfidation in oil refineries and carburization in heat treatment plants, ensuring longevity in harsh environments.
  • ​Mechanical Strength: Tensile strength of 600 MPa and hardness of 200-250 HV prevent deformation under heavy loads or thermal stress.
