Duplex Stainless Steel

Description:
Duplex stainless steels are a family of stainless steels that combine the beneficial properties of both austenitic and ferritic structures. Known for their high strength and excellent resistance to corrosion, especially stress corrosion cracking, they are ideal for demanding environments.

Key Features of Duplex Stainless Steel:
•High Strength:
Approximately twice as strong as standard austenitic grades like 304 and 316.
•Excellent Corrosion Resistance:
Superior performance in chloride-rich environments such as seawater and chemical plants.
•Improved Stress Corrosion Resistance:
Resists cracking under mechanical stress and corrosive conditions.
•Good Weld ability and Fabrication:
Suitable for a wide range of industrial fabrication techniques.
•Applications:
Used in pressure vessels, heat exchangers, offshore oil platforms, pipelines, and marine structures.
