Duplex Steel S32205 Welded Fittings Pipe Fittings

Duplex Steel S32205 Welded Fittings Pipe Fittings are composed of a mixture of precisely two austenitic and ferritic stainless steel alloys, most often consisting of 22% chromium, 5% nickel, 3.2% molybdenum and other trace elements. This unique alloy combination provides the Duplex Steel S32205 Welded Fittings Pipe Fitting with excellent chemical resistance and mechanical properties. Unlike carbon steel pipe fittings, this combination also makes them highly resistant to corrosion, especially in chloride environments. Furthermore, they have superior strength-to-weight ratios that make them perfect for various applications with high strength and corrosion resistance.

Welded Fittings Duplex Steel S32205 are renowned for their superior strength, corrosion resistance, toughness and great weldability. Due to these characteristics, the fittings have many applications, from medical implants and oil and gas exploration equipment to tanks, pipes and heat exchangers. The chromium content in these fittings promotes excellent corrosion resistance, while its low carbon content maximizes strength and pitting resistance properties. Additionally, adding molybdenum ensures outstanding crevice corrosion resistance making the pipe fitting suitable even for seawater diving environments. Manufacturers should be aware that this type of duplex steel is prone to stress cracking which may make them unsuitable for services involving chloride-containing solutions if adequate resistance cannot be provided.
