S31254 Seamless Tube & Pipe Manufacturer
Haverer Group produce alloy S31254 tube and pipe in China now. What is UNS S31254? This grade of steel is a super austenitic stainless steel. They are high end stainless steel designed for impact toughness resistance to chloride crevice corrosion, stress corrosion cracking, and pitting. These are austenite with high content of nickel and chromium.
What is ASTM A240 / A240M? It is an American material standard for standard specification for chromium and chromium-nickel stainless steel plate, sheet, and strip for pressure vessels and for general applications.
Why S31254 called Alloy 254 Stainless Steel? When a material grade is specified as stainless steel, it means it has chromium content in it but this grade has high chromium content. S31254 is the UNS designation alloy, also referred as 254 alloy in SAE designation and is defined in ASTM A240 standard.
This material grade is usually provided in the annealed state offering yield strengths more than three hundred mega Pascal. This material cannot be strain hardened by heat treatment but harder surface toughness can be gained by cold working. The normal pitting resistance equivalent number of this alloy is forty two to forty four which makes sure that the resistance to pitting corrosion and crevice is high, enhancing this alloy as a substitute to the austenite alloys in 300 series (for example SUS304 type) in areas where mechanical properties are needed higher.
