254SMO/ UNS S31254 6Mo stainless steel seamless pipe

• Alloys 254/254 SMO/6 Mo is an austenitic stainless steel with a high molybdenum content. Coupled with Nickel and Copper this gives the alloy a good resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion, especially in environments containing halide ions, e.g. chloride, bromide and fluoride solutions
• 254 SMO (UNS S31254) may offer a cost effective solution to Nickel and Titanium alloys in these environments
• Features of 254 SMO:
  • High strength compared to 316L and 317L austenitic stainless steels
  • Excellent ductility and impact strength at both ambient and sub-zero temperatures
  • Non-magnetic
  • Higher resistance to abrasion, erosion and cavitation erosion than 316 and 317 stainless
  • Listed in MR-01-75 for sour service oilfield applications
• Application of 254 SMO:
  • Chemical process industry:
    • Urea production, organic and fatty acids, high halide concentrations
  • Marine Industry and shipbuilding:
    • Piping, pumps, valves, heat exchangers
  • Oil and gas industry:
    • Heat exchangers, piping, valves, pumps
  • Pulp and paper industry:
    • Bleach plant, vats, drums, press rolls, piping
  • Power Industry:
    • Flue gas scrubbers
  • Desalination plant:
    • Piping, condensers
