FAQ's

What is Austenitic Stainless Steel 309 and what makes it unique?

Austenitic Stainless Steel 309 is a high chromium (22–24%) and nickel (12–15%) alloy designed for superior oxidation and corrosion resistance at elevated temperatures. It is widely used in furnace parts, petrochemical equipment, and exhaust systems due to its ability to maintain strength and toughness under thermal cycling conditions.

What are the key properties of Stainless Steel 309?

SS 309 offers:

  • Excellent oxidation resistance up to high temperatures.
  • Superior resistance to scaling and carburization.
  • Good mechanical strength (tensile strength 520–655 MPa).
  • Durability in thermal shock and corrosive environments.
  • Good weldability and fabrication properties.

Where is Stainless Steel 309 commonly used?

Stainless Steel 309 is extensively used in furnaces, heat treatment equipment, catalytic reactors, gas turbines, boilers, exhaust manifolds, food processing equipment, and petrochemical plants. Its ability to withstand high heat and oxidation makes it a preferred material in aerospace, automotive, and power generation industries.

How is Stainless Steel 309 different from Stainless Steel 304 and 310?

Compared to SS 304, Stainless Steel 309 has higher chromium and nickel content, making it far more resistant to high-temperature oxidation. While SS 310 has slightly higher alloying elements, SS 309 offers a cost effective balance of heat resistance, strength, and corrosion protection, ideal for industrial high-heat applications.
