AL-6XN The BEST Stainless Steel for our use????

[Roland Jacques]

Wow if i'm reading this right this AL-6XN Stainless steel may in fact be the best SS for HHO.

AL-6XN Stainless steel
About 15 Xs less corrosive than 316L in a 50% heated Sodium Hydroxide ( no info on potassium H)


AL-6XN Stainless steel
Electrical Resistivity 535 OHMs
304
Electrical Resistivity, 7.40E-05 ohm-cm
316L
7.40E-05 ohm-cm

not sure how to read this. I believe the smaller the number the more conductive.

What's the difference in price?

It appears that AL-6XN is more conductive than 316L by 28% I wonder how much efficiency improvements this could equate to.

Maybe someone more familiar with these readings confirm or correct this.

I'll Email them and find out about prices & availability. I have a feeling that they wont deal in our relatively small quantities. Maybe some fabricator could meet there quantity requirements
