309 stainless steel is an austenitic stainless steel that machines comparably to 304. However, 309 has superior corrosion resistance and strength. Cold working 309 will increase both strength and hardness and this stainless steel does not respond to heat treating.

309 comes in the following shapes: round bar, sheet and pipe.
