309S / X12CrNi23-13
1.4833High-chromium austenitic stainless for high-temperature service. Better oxidation resistance than 304 due to higher Cr (22-24%) and Ni (12-14%). Maximum service temperature ~1000°C (intermittent). Used for furnace parts, heat exchangers, fluidized bed combustors, kiln liners, and boiler baffles.
