Our company is the Manufacturer, Exporter, and Supplier of SMO .Our company has 20 years of Experience in Manufacturing of SMO in India. We have been exporting this alloy all over the world. We supply SMO 254 Pipe, Tube, Wire, Flanges, Fittings, Forged Fitting, Filler Wire, Tube Fitting, Outlets, Elbow, Tee, Round Bar, Plate, Sheet, Coil etc. Stainless Steel Grade SMO 254 is very high end austenitic stainless steel developed for use in seawater and other aggressive chloride bearing media. Alloy 254 SMO is substantially stronger than the common austenitic grades, with strength nearly twice that of 300 series of stainless steel. Owing to its excellent corrosion resistance, ducting and welding properties, the offered SMO is widely used in chemical industry & food processing equipment and truck & trailer body manufacturing purpose. The offered product can be available in different types, shape and size as per the requirement of the client.

Corrosion Resistance

  • Excellent resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion due to its high chromium, molybdenum, and nitrogen content
  • Has a very low carbon content, which means there is very little risk of carbide precipitation during heating
  • Possesses very good resistance in water containing chlorides, therefore, it is suitable for use in seawater as it can be exposed to it for prolonged periods without suffering from crevice corrosion

Weldability:

  • Possesses good weldability
  • Should be done without pre-heating
  • If correctly performed, there will be no need for any subsequent heat treatment
  • Has low thermal conductivity and high thermal expansion so must minimize distortion of welded joint
  • Welding without filler metal results in poor strength properties

Machinability:

  • High work hardening rate combined with a lack of sulphur makes it very difficult to machine
  • Slow speeds, sharp tools, positive feeds, over-powered machine tools, and ample lubrication offer the best results

Applications:

Due to its high levels of molybdenum and nickel, Alloy 254 SMO is frequently used in high chloride environments. Examples of applications that call for the used of Alloy 254 SMO include:

  • Petroleum production
  • Saltwater handling
  • Food and chemical processing equipment
  • Pulp mill bleach systems
  • Flue gas desulphurization scrubbers
  • Tall oil distillation columns
  • Offshore oil & gas production equipment
  • Desalination equipment

Standards:

  • ASTM/ASME: UNS S31254
  • EURONORM: FeMi35Cr20Cu4Mo2
  • DIN: 2.4660
