SPECIFICATIONS: GRADE 6 Moly | UNS S31254 | ASTM/ASME A240 / F44 | Werkstoff 1.4547
The 31254 alloy can be supplied directly from our warehouse stock in Stainless Steel Flanges, Stainless Steel Pipe Fittings, Stainless Steel Pipe through our cutting capabilities meeting quality standards and requirements.
UNS S31254 is a fully austenitic, 6% molybdenum super duplex stainless steel, used widely in seawater cooled power plant condensers.
The first high-performance austenitic Stainless Steel designed specifically to use nitrogen for added corrosion resistance. Uses of UNS S31254 include condenser tubes, heat exchanger tubes, tube sheets and service water piping in nuclear power plants.
Properties
Austenitic Cr-Ni-Mo stainless steel with excellent resistance to stress corrosion cracking, pitting and crevice corrosion. Resistant to intergranular corrosion in the temperature range up to 400°C (752°F). For optimum resistance, surfaces should be pickled, scale free heat treated or machined.
Application
For applications involving highly corrosive environments due to the presence of chemically aggressive media, e.g. for equipment and plants which are cooled by seawater and parts for offshore plants. In the chemical industry where resistance to the attack of pure acids as well as acids containing chloride ions (sulphuric acid in particular), of organic acids and mixed acids is required in the higher pressure and temperature ranges. The enhanced resistance to crevice corrosion permits use also for applications where incrustation must be expected, and/or where the formation of gaps cannot be avoided by design precautions.

Welding
To keep heat input low use small electrode and wire diameters and low amperage and minimise width of weaving. Maximum interpass temperature 150°C (302°F). We recommend electric arc welding with covered electrodes or inert gas welding. Heat treatment is not normally necessary after welding. However , welding without filler metal shall be followed by solution annealing at 1150 to 1200°C (2102-2192°F) and subsequent rapid cooling.
