254 SMO Stainless Steel (UNS S31254) is a high-end, super-austenitic stainless steel characterized by excellent corrosion resistance, particularly in chloride-rich environments. With high levels of molybdenum and nitrogen, it exhibits outstanding resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and stress-corrosion cracking, making it ideal for applications exposed to seawater, brackish water, and harsh chemical environments. Notably, 254 SMO outperforms conventional austenitic grades and can be a cost-effective substitute for high-nickel and titanium alloys.
