Superduplex stainless steel pipes, plates, fittings, and forgings exhibit a microstructure comprising approximately equal parts of austenite and a ferrite matrix. This unique composition, in conjunction with a general alloying level, imparts notable characteristics: Superduplex exhibits high strength in comparison to standard austenitic steels like type 316L. Its robustness extends to good general corrosion resistance across diverse environments. Additionally, the alloy demonstrates exceptional resistance to chloride-induced stress corrosion cracking (CSCC) and pitting attacks in chloride-rich environments, such as seawater. In scenarios involving dilute sulfuric acid contaminated with chloride ions, 2507 outperforms 904L—a highly alloyed austenitic steel designed for pure sulfuric acid resistance. These alloys are increasingly finding broader applications in the offshore oil/gas, chemical, and petrochemical process industries. Their versatile use encompasses pipework systems, flowlines, risers, manifolds, and other critical components.
