1) Introduction
Industries that operate in high-temperature environments, such as power plants, chemical processing units, and furnace construction, constantly battle material degradation. Standard steel often fails under elevated temperatures, resulting in corrosion, scaling, and ultimately costly downtimes. The need for a reliable, heat-resistant, and oxidation-resistant alloy becomes critical to ensure both safety and efficiency.
2) Product Introduction
Stainless Steel 309 Bars & Rods are austenitic chromium-nickel alloys designed specifically to withstand high temperatures and oxidizing environments. With higher chromium (22%) and nickel (12%) content than SS 304, these bars & rods offer superior strength and oxidation resistance at temperatures up to 1000°C. Available in various diameters and finishes, SS 309 Bars & Rods are widely chosen for structural and mechanical applications where heat resistance is paramount.
3) Advantages Only
Excellent High-Temperature Strength: Maintains mechanical integrity even in extreme heat.
Superior Oxidation Resistance: Withstands scaling in continuous service up to 1093°C.
Corrosion Resistance: Offers good corrosion resistance in mild atmospheres and oxidizing environments.
Weldability: Easily weldable with or without filler materials.
Durability: Long service life reduces maintenance and replacement costs.
4) Real Life Uses
Stainless Steel 309 Bars & Rods are used in:
Heat exchangers and boiler components in power plants
