During the past two decades, the 6-Mo superaustenitic alloy UNS N08367 has been tested and used in marine environments around the world. The results of planned tests and actual service experience are enumerated. Both successes and failures are examined. These provide guidance on environmental limits for the alloy’s successful use.
