SUS309S Cold Rolled Stainless Steel Coil & Sheet | JIS G4305 309S Stainless Steel Strip Manufacturer & Exporter – Gangsteel

Gangsteel is a premier manufacturer and global exporter of premium JIS G4305 SUS309S cold rolled stainless steel coils, sheets, and strips. As a high-chromium, high-nickel austenitic grade (Grade 309S or UNS S30908), SUS309S excels in elevated-temperature service with outstanding oxidation resistance up to 1900°F (1038°C) under non-cyclic conditions, superior scaling resistance, and good strength retention at high temperatures. The low carbon content (≤0.08%) and high alloy levels (22-24% Cr, 12-15% Ni) make it ideal for cyclic heating applications where intergranular corrosion must be minimized.

Our advanced cold rolling facilities produce SUS309S with high-quality surface finishes (2B, BA, No.4, HL, Mirror), tight tolerances (±0.02 mm), and consistent properties fully compliant with JIS G4305 (Cold-rolled stainless steel plate, sheet and strip). Equivalent to ASTM A240 Type 309S, EN 1.4833 (X12CrNi23-13), and GB 0Cr23Ni13 or 06Cr23Ni13, Gangsteel's SUS309S products serve demanding industries worldwide including furnace components, heat exchangers, petrochemical processing, power generation, annealing covers, and high-temperature fabrication.

This comprehensive product introduction details every aspect of our JIS G4305 SUS309S cold rolled stainless steel — from composition and properties (in tables) to manufacturing, applications, advantages, and why Gangsteel is your trusted partner for reliable, heat-resistant supply.

 

Introduction to SUS309S Stainless Steel

SUS309S is a heat-resisting austenitic stainless steel designed for continuous high-temperature service. With significantly higher chromium and nickel than standard 304/316 grades, it forms a stable, protective chromium oxide scale that resists oxidation, carburization, and sulfidation in oxidizing atmospheres up to 1900°F (1038°C) non-cyclic, or ~1850°F (1010°C) cyclic. The low carbon content enhances weldability and resistance to intergranular corrosion after exposure to sensitization temperatures.

Non-magnetic in the annealed state, SUS309S provides good creep strength, thermal fatigue resistance, and moderate corrosion resistance in mildly aggressive environments. Gangsteel specializes in cold rolled SUS309S, optimizing it for forming, welding, and polishing in furnace and thermal processing equipment.

Other High-Temp Uses

  • Glass forming equipment, thermowells
  • Paper mill equipment, rotary kilns

Its oxidation resistance suits continuous or cyclic high-heat service.

 

Advantages of Choosing SUS309S Stainless Steel

  • Outstanding oxidation and scaling resistance up to 1900°F (1038°C)
  • Good sulfidation and carburization resistance
  • Moderate strength retention at elevated temperatures
  • Weldable with good IGC resistance (low C)
  • Formable and fabricable for complex shapes
  • Better high-temp performance than SUS304/316
  • Recyclable and cost-effective for heat applications

Corrosion and Oxidation Resistance

Forms stable Cr oxide scale; resists oxidation, carburization, and sulfidation in oxidizing atmospheres. Good in mild corrosives; not for severe chlorides (use 316/317). Oxidation resistance ~1900°F non-cyclic, ~1850°F cyclic.

Weldability and Fabrication

Good weldability with TIG/MIG; low C minimizes sensitization. Use ER309/ER309L fillers. High ductility supports forming; annealing may be needed post-weld for critical uses.
