A BWR channel box comprises a substrate, a first layer, and a second layer. The substrate comprises silicon carbide fibers. The first layer is deposited on a first surface of the substrate. The second layer is deposited on an opposite second surface of the substrate. Each layer comprises a corrosion resistant metallic composition. The combined weight of both layers is in a range from greater than 0% to 10% of the total weight of the channel box.
