Atlas 310 / 310S / 310H are chromium-nickel austenitic stainless steels. They combine excellent high temperature properties with good ductility and weldability. Atlas 310S (UNS S31008) is used when the application environment involves moist corrodents in a temperature range lower than that which is normally considered "high temperature" service.
