Duplex Steel 2205 Washer

As one of the more popular duplex stainless steel grades, the Duplex Steel 2205 Washer is known for its high strength and excellent corrosion resistance. As such, it is commonly used in various applications where both strength and resistance to chlorine, saltwater, acetic acid, and other corrosive compounds are essential. Chemical B16 is added to the 2205 Duplex Steel Washer to ensure this superior performance. This ferritic-austenitic stainless steel alloy has excellent resistance to pitting corrosion typically found in chloride-containing media. Additionally, chemical B16 protects against intergranular corrosion from welds or heat treatments. With these properties combined into one low-cost material, chemical B16 makes the Duplex Steel 2205 Washer an ideal choice for various critical applications.

Duplex Steel 2205 Washer are used in many different industries. They are ideal for applications which require corrosion resistance and strength because they provide both high levels of chromium and molybdenum content. In addition, these washers offer excellent resistance to crevice and stress corrosions, as well as pitting and intergranular corrosion. They also offer good weldability, machinability, formability, ductility, and toughness. This makes them suitable for industrial and structural usages such as shipbuilding or construction. Furthermore, the mechanical properties of these washers have also been very successful in cryogenic applications because of their higher yield strength compared to other materials like austenitic steels.
