High performance stainless steel tubing for highly corrosive environments and seawater applications.
With over 30 years of commercial success, SEA-CURE® has an outstanding performance record, and over 100 million feet has been shipped worldwide.
It is one of the most cost-effective alloys used in power plant condensers, heat exchangers and desalination plants due to its excellent corrosion resistance, good thermal conductivity, and superior mechanical and physical properties. SEA-CURE® is specially engineered to reduce life-cycle cost by preventing tube leaks, ensuring tube cleanliness, eliminating chemical treatment and reducing CO2 costs. Since its inception, SEA-CURE® condenser installations have saved the power generation industry hundreds of millions of dollars.

Why use SEA-CURE?
- The ferritic structure of SEA-CURE® stainless steel provides a high strength/low work hardening material with good ductility.
- These properties allow high design stress limits with good fabrication characteristics. Because of the nickel addition, SEA-CURE® has a lower ductile-to-brittle transition temperature than similar ferritic steels without nickel additions.
- Significantly higher modulus that allows the use of a lighter wall with less problem of vibration
- Higher steam and water droplet erosion resistance allowing a greater cushion in cases where upset conditions may occur
- Weldability to other stainless steels
- Higher strength and modulus which allows more tolerance for those tough designs and installations
- Over 30 years of commercial history with an outstanding performance record
- Superior Corrosion Resistance
