Online InquiryIntroduction:
Called Duplex Pipe because of its mixed microstructure with about equal proportions of ferrite and austenite, duplex stainless steels are a family of grades, which range in corrosion performance depending on their alloy content. The chemical composition based on high contents of Cr and Mo, improves intergranular and pitting corrosion resistance, respectively. Additions of nitrogen can promote structural hardening by interstitial solid solution mechanism, which raises the yield strength and ultimate strength values without impairing toughness. Moreover, the two-phase microstructure guarantees higher resistance to pitting and stress corrosion cracking in comparison with conventional stainless steels.
Duplex is a stainless steel made from a mixture of austenite and ferrite phases. Like most austenitic stainless steels, duplex has a strong resistance to corrosion, similar to those of a Type 304 and 316.
Unlike similar steels, duplex also displays an improved resistance to localized corrosion, particularly pitting, crevice corrosion and stress corrosion cracking. And because duplex has a lower nickel and molybdenum content than other austenitic stainless steels, it can prove a more cost effective option due to a lower alloying content.
Due to its Ferritic qualities, duplex steel also shows very good resistance to stress corrosion cracking when compared to standard austenitic. In some cases, the strength of duplex steel can be up to double that of the most commonly used grades of stainless steel.
Duplex becomes brittle at extreme temperatures so its use is normally restricted to a maximum temperature of 300 degrees. Duplex also shows signs of embrittlement at –50 degrees.
Benefits:
Stronger than 300 series stainless steel which also brings weight
advantages.
Cheaper than some stainless steels.
High resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion and stress corrosion
cracking.
Higher heat conductivity and lower thermal expansion than austenitic steels.
Uses:
Pipes for production and transportation of oil and gas
Structural and mechanical components
Heat exchangers
Cooling pipes
Cargo vessels and containers
High strength wiring
Standard of ASTMA790
1. Scope*
1.1 This specification2 covers seamless and straight-seam welded
ferritic/austenitic steel pipe intended for general corrosive service,
with particular emphasis on resistance to stress corrosion cracking. These
steels are susceptible to embrittlement if used for prolonged periods at
elevated temperatures.
1.2 Optional supplementary requirements are provided for pipe when a
greater degree of testing is desired. These supplementary requirements
call for additional tests to be made and, when desired, one or more of
these may be specified in the order.
1.3 Appendix X1 of this specification lists the dimensions of welded and
seamless stainless steel pipe as shown in ANSIB36.19. Pipe having other
dimensions may be furnished provided such pipe complies with all other
requirements of this specification.
1.4 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI units are to be
regarded separately as standard. Within the text, the SI units are shown
in brackets. The values stated in each system are not exact equivalents;
therefore, each system must be used independently of the other. Combining
values from the two systems may result in nonconformance with the
specification. The inch-pound units shall apply unless the M designation of
this specification is specified in the order.

Introduction:
Called Duplex Pipe because of its mixed microstructure with about equal
proportions of ferrite and austenite, duplex stainless steels are a family of
grades, which range in corrosion performance depending on their alloy content.
The chemical composition based on high contents of Cr and Mo, improves
intergranular and pitting corrosion resistance, respectively. Additions of
nitrogen can promote structural hardening by interstitial solid solution
mechanism, which raises the yield strength and ultimate strength values without
impairing toughness. Moreover, the two-phase microstructure guarantees higher
resistance to pitting and stress corrosion cracking in comparison with
conventional stainless steels.
Duplex is a stainless steel made from a mixture of austenite and ferrite phases. Like most austenitic stainless steels, duplex has a strong resistance to corrosion, similar to those of a Type 304 and 316.
Unlike similar steels, duplex also displays an improved resistance to localized corrosion, particularly pitting, crevice corrosion and stress corrosion cracking. And because duplex has a lower nickel and molybdenum content than other austenitic stainless steels, it can prove a more cost effective option due to a lower alloying content.
Due to its Ferritic qualities, duplex steel also shows very good resistance to stress corrosion cracking when compared to standard austenitic. In some cases, the strength of duplex steel can be up to double that of the most commonly used grades of stainless steel.
