Jay Steel Corporation offers Austenitic Stainless Steel. Jay Steel Corporation offers nickel alloys, stainless steel, titanium grades, etc. Avesta Sheffield AB Austenitic Stainless Steel has 254 SMO as its registered trademark. The austenitic stainless steel has high molybdenum content and possesses very high resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion. This steel grade was developed by Avesta Sheffield for use in halide-containing environments such as seawater. 254 SMO also shows good resistance to uniform corrosion and, especially in acids containing halides, this steel grade is superior to conventional stainless steels. Copper provides improved resistance in certain acids. Furthermore, due to its relatively high nickel content in combination with high levels of chromium and molybdenum, 254 SMO possesses good resistance to stress corrosion cracking.
