Using URANUS B6 as a substitute for Avesta 904L
What is the chemical composition of URANUS B6?

Alan, searching Google for URANUS B6 got a web page that said it's Werkstoff number was 1.4539. That has 19-21 chromium, 4-5 molybdenum,
24-26 nickel, and 1.2-2.0 copper. Interestingly enough, the N08904 designation in the same row has 19-23 chromium, 4-5 molybdenum, 23-28 nickel, and 1-2 copper. I think that gives some credibility to the website.
Good luck!
