Sanicro® 35
Sanicro® 35 (UNS N08935) is a newly developed alloy combining the best features of a high performance austenitic stainless steel and nickel based alloys. This grade has excellent corrosion resistance in combination with a high mechanical strength.
NOTE: Sanicro®35 is a trademark owned by Alleima AB and produced as plates and sheets by Outokumpu under a license agreement.
• Excellent resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion
• Excellent resistance to stress corrosion cracking (SCC)
• High resistance to uniform corrosion in acid and caustic environments
• High resistance to erosion-corrosion
• Very high mechanical strength
• Good weldability using nickel based alloy consumables.
Sanicro® 35 complies with NACE MR0175/ISO 15156-3 as a type 4a and 4c material, with significantly higher environmental limits than 6Mo grades like Ultra 254 SMO. Additionally, cold worked Sanicro® 35 (to 965 and 1240 MPa) has been tested in a NACE MR0175/ISO 15156 Test Level VI environment according to NACE TM0198 with no indication of SCC.

Ultra Alloy 825
Outokumpu Ultra Alloy 825 (W.-Nr. 2.4858, UNS N08825, ISO NW8825) is a titanium stabilized austenitic nickel base alloy with an addition of copper.
- Excellent resistance to stress corrosion cracking
- Very good resistance in oxidizing and reducing acids
- Moderate resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion
- Good mechanical properties also at elevated temperatures
- Reduced risk for sensitization when used in temperature ranges where this is a problem for stainless steels.
Outokumpu Ultra Alloy 825 is listed in ISO 15156-3 (NACE MR0175), materials for oil and gas production, and in NACE MR0103, materials resistant to sulfide stress cracking.

Ultra
Die Ultra-Kategorie umfasst hochlegierte austenitische Güten, die für extrem korrosive Umgebungen mit einem PRE-Wert von über 27 ausgelegt sind.
Die Ultra-Kategorie umfasst unsere Hauptprodukte Ultra Alloy 825 (EN 2.4858), Ultra 904L (EN 1.4539) und Ultra 254 SMO (EN 1.4547) sowie mehrere Alternativen, darunter den korrosionsbeständigsten Edelstahl der Welt, Ultra 654 SMO (EN 1.4652), für Ihre ganz speziellen Anwendungen.
Die Ultra-Kategorie ist die beste Wahl, wenn Sie Material für extrem korrosive Umgebungen benötigen, in denen Standard-Edelstahlgüten wie Core 304L/4307 oder Supra 316L/4404 nicht ausreichen, um die Korrosionsanforderungen Ihrer Anwendung zu erfüllen.
Die Edelstähle der Ultra-Kategorie weisen nicht nur eine hervorragende Korrosionsbeständigkeit auf, auch die Festigkeits- und Dehnungseigenschaften der Ultra-Kategorie sind im Vergleich zu herkömmlichen austenitischen Edelstählen ähnlich oder besser. Der Zusatz von Stickstoff zu Güten der Ultra-Kategorie wie etwa Ultra 254 SMO verleiht ihnen eine höhere Streckgrenze und Zugfestigkeit. Trotz der höheren Festigkeit dieser Stähle bieten sie sehr gute Möglichkeiten sowohl für die Kaltverformung als auch für die Warmumformung. Stähle der Ultra-Kategorie eignen sich gut zum Schweißen, und die für das Schweißen herkömmlicher austenitischer Stähle verwendeten Verfahren können auch für diese Produkte angewendet werden.
Typische Anwendungen für Güten der Ultra-Kategorie sind:
- chemische und petrochemische Industrie
- maritime Abgasreinigung
- Wärmetauscher
- Anwendungen, die Beständigkeit gegen gechlortes Meerwasser erfordern.
Ultra Alloy 825 ist eine Ti-stabilisierte austenitische Nickelbasislegierung, die in der Öl- und Gasindustrie in Rohrleitungssystemen, Erdölraffinerieanlagen und Sauergasanlagen verwendet wird. Ultra 904L wird in Ausrüstungen der petrochemischen Industrie wie Rohren, Wärmetauschern, Tanks und Reaktorbehältern verwendet. Ultra 254 SMO eignet sich für Anwendungen, die eine Beständigkeit gegen chloriertes Meerwasser erfordern, für die Rauchgasreinigung, die Reinigung von Schiffsabgasen sowie für Bleichanlagen in der Zellstoff- und Papierindustrie und für Flansche und Ventile.
Die Güten der Ultra-Kategorie können in einer Vielzahl von Anwendungen eingesetzt werden, die durch eine breite Auswahl an Oberflächenausführungen von Walzwerken und Servicecentern unterstützt werden.
