- Duplex Stainless Steel 2205(S31803 / S32205) Tube, Pipe, Fittings, Flanges
Duplex Stainless Steel 2205 (UNS S31803) is one of the most recognized and widely used duplex stainless steel grade, with excellent general corrosion resistance and superiority over grade 304 or 316 in most environments. wilsonpipeline is a manufacturer and supplier of various grades of duplex stainless steels including UNS 31803 (F51) and UNS 32205 (F60) Alloy 2205. The ratio of ferrite to austenite in Duplex stainless steel is approximately 50:50. 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 wilsonpipeline 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.

- Duplex 2205 (UNS S31803, S32205) – A Nitrogen Enhanced Duplex Stainless Steel
Duplex 2205 is a nitrogen enhanced duplex stainless steel developed for combating common corrosion issues encountered with the 300 series stainless steels. wilsonpipeline Pipe Industry Co., Limited supplies duplex and super duplex stainless steels in plate, sheet, bar, pipe, pipe fittings, flanges, tube and weld wire. “Duplex” is a stainless steel family that is neither fully austenitic, such as 304 stainless, nor ferritic such as 430 stainless steel. The 2205 duplex stainless steel structure consists of austenite pools surrounded by a continuous ferrite phase. In the annealed condition, 2205 has approximately 40-50% ferrite. The 2205 Duplex is mostly referred to as the work horse grade and is the most widely used grade in the duplex family of stainless steels. The benefit of a duplex structure is that the favorable qualities of a ferritic alloy are combined with those of an austenitic alloy that features corrosion resistance and ease of fabrication. Usage of 2205 Duplex stainless steel should be limited to temperatures below 600° F. Extended elevated temperature exposure can embrittle 2205 stainless. Chemical Composition, % The chemical composition of 2205 Duplex is:CrNiMoCNMnSiPSFe22.0-23.04.50-6.503.00-3.50.030 Max0.14-0.202.00 Max1.00 Max.030 Max.020 MaxBalance Corrosion Resistance The 2205 duplex stainless steel is an economical solution for a number of applications where the 300 series stainless steels are susceptible to chloride stress corrosion cracking. Stress corrosion cracking occurs when stainless steels are subjected to tensile stress, while in contact with solutions containing chlorides. The susceptibility of stainless steels to stress corrosion cracking is also increased by increasing temperatures. Combining molybdenum, chromium and nitrogen result in 2205 having good resistance to chloride pitting and crevice corrosion. This resistance is highly important for services such as marine environments, brackish water, bleaching operations, closed loop water systems and some food processing applications. The high chromium, molybdenum and nitrogen contents of 2205 offer corrosion resistance superior to common stainless steels, such as, 316L and 317L in most environments.

Possible alternative grades to grade 904L stainless steels Grade Reasons for choosing grade 904L 316L A lower cost alternative, but with much lower corrosion resistance. 6Mo A higher resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion is needed. 2205 A very similar corrosion resistance, with the 2205 having higher mechanical strength, and at a lower cost to 904L. (2205 not suitable for temperatures above 300°C.) Super duplex Higher corrosion resistance is needed, together with a higher strength than 904L. Corrosion Resistance Grade 904L stainless steels have excellent resistance to warm seawater and chloride attack. The high resistance of grade 904L against stress corrosion cracking is due to the presence of high amounts of nickel in its composition. Moreover, the addition of copper to these grades develops resistance to sulphuric acid and other reducing agents in both aggressive and mild conditions. The corrosion resistance of grade 904L is intermediate between super austenitic grades, with 6% molybdenum content, and standard 316L austenitic grades. Grade 904L is less resistant to nitric acid than grades 304L and 310L, which are free of molybdenum. This steel grade needs to be solution treated following cold working, to achieve maximum stress corrosion cracking resistance under critical environments. Heat Resistance Grade 904L stainless steels offer good oxidation resistance. However, the structural stability of this grade collapses at high temperatures, particularly above 400°C. Heat Treatment Grade 904L stainless steels can be solution heat-treated at 1090 to 1175°C, following by rapid cooling. Thermal treatment is suitable for hardening these grades. Welding Welding of grade 904L stainless steels can be performed using all conventional methods. This grade does not require pre-heat and post-weld heat treatments. Grade 904L can be subjected to hot cracking in constrained weldment. Grade 904L electrodes and rods are used for welding grade 904L steels according to AS 1554.6. Fabrication Grade 904L stainless steels are high purity steels with low sulphur content. They can be machined using any standard methods. These grades can be readily bent to a small radius under cold conditions. Although subsequent annealing is not required in most cases, it should be carried out when the fabrication is performed under severe stress corrosion cracking conditions. Applications Some of the major applications of grade 904L stainless steels include: Wiring in electrostatic precipitators Oil refinery components Seawater cooling devices Gas scrubbing plants Pulp and paper processing industries Acetic, phosphoric and sulphuric acid processing plants Stainless Steel Flanges Source – wilsonpipeline Pipe Industry Co., Limited (https://www.wilsonpipeline.com)

Welding Welding of stainless steel grade 254 SMO (UNS S31254) requires filler material without which it results in poor strength properties. Filler metals such as AWS A5.14 ERNiCrMo-3, and alloy 625 are recommended. Electrodes used in the process, have to match with AWS A5.11 ENiCrMo-12. Annealing Annealing of this material should be performed at 1149-1204°C (2100-2200°F), which should be followed by a water quench. Hot Working Forging, upsetting and other operations relating to this material can be performed at 982 – 1149°C (1800 – 2100°F). It is recommended that temperatures do not exceed this range as it would result in scaling and reduction in the workability of the material. To re-attain maximum corrosion resistant properties, it is advisable to perform post-process annealing. Cold Working Cold working can be carried out using all the traditional methods; however the process would be tough due to its high work hardening rate. The result will provide the material with increased strength and toughness. Hardening Stainless steel grade 254 SMO (UNS S31254) does not respond to heat treatment. Hardening is possible only through cold reduction. Applications Stainless steel grade 254 SMO (UNS S31254) is used in the following areas: Saltwater handling Tall oil distillation columns Flue gas desulfurization scrubbers Components used in petroleum production Food processing equipment Process equipment in chemical industry Bleaching equipment in the pulp and paper industry Flue-gas cleaning Desalination Heat exchangers Source – wilsonpipeline Pipe Industry Co., Limited (https://www.wilsonpipeline.com)

Duplex stainless steel pipes and 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.
