The characteristic feature of duplex stainless steels is their dual phase microstructure, comprising of approximately 50% of austenitic and 50% of ferrite. The yield strength of duplex stainless steel is typically double that of austenitic stainless steel.
Duplex stainless steel fittings, duplex stainless steel pipes and duplex stainless steel flanges are one of the key product items of yaang and are widely supplied from stock to various industries such as chemical, petrochemical, marine, oil and gas and transportation. Duplex pipes, tubing’s and fittings are widely used for oil field piping works and heat exchangers.
Duplex stainless steel pipes and duplex stainless steel pipe fittings are considered as a cost effective grade due to lower nickel and molybdenum contents than their austenitic counterparts of similar corrosion resistance. Due to the lower alloying content, duplex stainless steels are generally lower in cost. Also, due to higher yield strength it could also be possible to reduce the thickness of duplex stainless steel products, compared to austenitic stainless steel. The dual benefit of lower prices and weight savings make duplex stainless steels economically very effective for project managers.
When compared to 2205 grade duplex stainless steel, 904L has similar corrosion resistant properties but lower mechanical strength. 2205 is also a lower cost option compared to 904L, but is not suitable for temperatures above 300°C. Grade 2205 is not generally suitable for use at temperatures above 300°C as it suffers from precipitation of brittle micro-constituents, nor below -50°C because of its ductile-to-brittle-transition.
