Contact form
253 MA is a sophisticated austenitic chromium-nickel stainless steel, enhanced with nitrogen and reactive elements. When fabricated into Stainless Steel U Channels, it excels in high-temperature applications, including recuperators in steel mills and PCI lances for blast furnaces. The unique properties of 253MA Stainless Steel U Channels make them particularly suitable for environments with isothermal and cyclic oxidation, carburizing atmospheres, and various combustion and flue gases, as well as salt and metal melts. These Stainless Steel Channel components can withstand temperatures up to 1150°C (2100°F), depending on specific service parameters and applications.
Superior Performance Characteristics of 253MA Stainless Steel Channel Systems
The 253MA grade demonstrates exceptional performance in Stainless Steel U Channel applications due to several key features:
- Outstanding resistance to cyclic oxidation, attributed to reactive elements like cerium (Ce)
- Superior mechanical strength allowing for thinner wall construction compared to ASTM 310 type materials
- Maintained ductility and formability despite high strength
- Excellent creep strength
- Exceptional resistance to isothermal oxidation
- Superior performance in combustion gas environments
- Notable structural stability at elevated temperatures
- Enhanced weldability for various industrial applications
These characteristics make 253MA Stainless Steel U Channels an ideal choice for demanding industrial environments where standard stainless steel products may fall short.
