High-temperature Erosion Shields Made From 310s Stainless Steel To Protect Boiler Tubes From Flue Gas, Slag, And Particle Wear.
310s erosion shields safeguard steam boiler tubes from erosion and oxidation in high-heat zones, enhancing durability and operational safety in power plants.
310S stainless steel steam boiler tube erosion shields are premium-grade protection components designed to shield critical areas of boiler tubes from erosion, abrasion, and high-temperature oxidation. These shields are fabricated using AISI 310S, a high-performance, heat-resistant stainless steel known for its superior resistance to scaling, thermal fatigue, and aggressive gas corrosion at temperatures up to 1100°C (2012°F).
In modern steam boilers, erosion commonly occurs where flue gas velocity is highest—such as at bends, tube crossings, and slag-impact zones. Without proper shielding, boiler tubes in these locations suffer wall thinning, resulting in leaks, failures, and unplanned shutdowns.
Installing 310S stainless erosion shields is a proven, economical solution to extend tube life, enhance boiler reliability, and reduce maintenance costs. These shields are especially effective in harsh environments with high temperature and particulate flow, ensuring long-term protection for superheaters, reheaters, and water-cooled wall tubes.
310S stainless steel steam boiler tube erosion shields are precision components made from SS310S material, offering superior protection to boiler tubes from high-temperature corrosion, flue gas erosion, and mechanical wear. These shields are widely used in power generation, waste heat recovery units, and high-temperature industrial furnaces.

In order to solve the cumbersome and difficult to remember stainless steel grades, improve the practicability of the brand representation, and the contrast with the international standard grades, China has formulated the "Universal Code System for Steel and Alloy Grades", such as 06Cr19Ni10, corresponding to 304. Different grades of stainless steel have different ingredients, but they all have a national standard. The standards of each country are also different.
