Stainless steel billets
supplied to Tubacex
Tubacex, a leading producer of seamless tube, needed a suitable
stainless steel for producing tubes meant for aggressive environments
in the chemical, petrochemical, and power generation industries.
Outokumpu Therma 253 MA billet was the starting material for
production of seamless tubes optimized for very high service
temperatures. Therma 253 MA fulfilled the tough requirements for
oxidation and erosion-corrosion resistance up to 1150 °C/2100 °F,
and also has excellent mechanical strength at high temperatures.
Developing the new product required extensive cooperation between
Tubacex and Outokumpu.
