Corrosion resistance:

• Outstanding resistance against acids, seawater, chlorides, and other aggressive chemical environments
• Ideal for offshore and chemical processing applications with high corrosion loads
  
  

Heat resistance:

• Excellent thermal stability, usable up to 980 °C (1800 °F), maintaining mechanical properties in hot gas environments
  
  

Strength and toughness:

• High strength and toughness at both low and high temperatures. Retains stability under extreme loads with good fatigue and crack resistance.
  
  

Weldability:

• Excellent weldability with low sensitivity to porosity and cracking during welding
  
  

Niobium and Molybdenum effects:

• Enhance corrosion resistance, strength, and resistance to stress corrosion cracking
  
  

Thermal expansion:

• Low thermal expansion makes it advantageous for applications requiring dimensional stability under temperature fluctuations
