Austenitic Stainless Steel 654SMO

654SMO is a highly alloyed super austenitic stainless steel comprised of 23% nickel, 25% chromium, and 7% molybdenum. With its austenitic structure, it proves suitable for diverse temperature ranges. Offering corrosion resistance on par with top nickel-based alloys, it boasts excellent local corrosion resistance, pitting resistance, and stress corrosion resistance in challenging environments like seawater, aeration, gaps, and low-speed scouring conditions. It serves as an excellent alternative to both nickel-based and titanium alloys.
