Technical Data
ASC2250® LDX U-Bend Testing Data
The duplex grain structure of ASC2250 LDX, with its continuous Ferritic phase means this product is much less sensitive to stress corrosion cracking (SCC). Austenitic stainless grades, such as 304 and 316 are more susceptible to SCC.
Where sulfide stress cracking and stress corrosion cracking resistance in sour oilfield environments are required, ASC2250 LDX would be an excellent consideration.
U-BEND TESTING
{in a 40% CaCl2 boiling solution (100°C) for 500 hours}
Material Comparison | Longitudinal / Transverse |
