F44 Steel ( UNS S31254 / 1.4547 )
Short Introduction:
F44 ( UNS S31254 / 1.4547 ) super austenitic steel combines moderate tensile strength and high ductility with excellent corrosion resistance in seawater and variety of industrial environment. Typically the alloy has PREN of 42 – 44, which ensure that the resistance to pitting corrosion is high and it also has a hight resistance to crevice corrosion.
Material grades and equivalents：UNS S31254 / 1.4547 / F44 / 254SMO / 00Cr20Ni18Mo6CuN
Special properties:
Material to F44 Steel ( UNS S31254 / 1.4547 ) is described as a 6% Mo super austenitic stainless steel. The steel combines moderate mechanical strength (typically over 300 MPa yield strength) and high ductility with excellent corrosion resistance in seawater and a variety of industrial environments. Typically the alloy has a PREn (Pitting Resistance Equivalent) of 42-44 which ensures that the resistance to pitting corrosion is high. In addition, the steel provides good resistance to crevice corrosion. Ambient and subzero temperature notch ductility is very good. These attributes mean that this high molybdenum stainless steel can be used successfully as an alternative to 300 series austenitic stainless steels (such as type 316) in applications where higher mechanical strength and/or enhanced resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion is required. This alloy possesses a lower yield strength than that of duplex stainless steel (and much lower than that of super duplex steel) and pitting resistance which is comparable to super duplex stainless steel (such as UNS S32760 / S32750).
*F44 is designated differently in different product forms: for wrought pipe fittings, it is ASTM A403 WPS31254; for forgings, it is ASTM A182 F44; for castings, it should be CK3MCuN or UNS J932
Corrosion Resistance
F44 Super Austenitic Stainless Steel offers higher resistance to abrasion, erosion and cavitation erosion than other austenitic stainless grades such as 316. F44 Super Austenitic Stainless Steel has excellent resistance to corrosion in sea water and concentrated halide environments, with good resistance to crevice corrosion in seawater.
Welding
F44 Super Austenitic Stainless Steel is readily weldeable with welding procedures used for other austenitic stainless steel specifications. Welding should be carried out at the lowest heat possible as due to its austenite structure it can be prone to hot cracking.
Mill′s test certificate
EN 10204/3.1 with all relevant data reg. chem. composition, mech. properties and results of testing.
F44 Steel ( UNS S31254 / 1.4547 ) is mainly used in medium environments that are prone to pitting and crevice corrosion. In the bleaching section of pulp production, it is used to manufacture filters, reactors, ventilation devices, etc.; in nonferrous metallurgy, coal-fired power stations and pulp production, it is used to manufacture cleaning equipment components; it is used to manufacture containers, pipelines, etc. in seawater treatment environments ; In petrochemical and other chemical processing industries, it is used to make reactors, pipelines, pumps, valves, etc. for handling halogen-containing compound media.
