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
