Duplex Stainless Steel is a type of steel that has a high level of chromium that makes it resistant to oxidation. It is also referred to as austenitic, ferritic, or martensitic grade stainless steel. Duplex refers to the alloy’s properties, which are similar to both austenitic and ferritic stainless steel. It is the perfect solution for meeting the demand for energy, water, and wastewater in urban centers.
The following are some of the advantages of duplex stainless steel pipes:
Durability - Duplex Stainless Steel Pipes are more durable than other types of pipes that are made from other materials because Duplex Stainless Steel Pipes have excellent resistance to corrosion.
This is why they are used in many industrial applications where their durability can be put to use. They require less maintenance, saving both time and money. Industrial grade strength - Duplex Stainless Steel Pipe has a higher working pressure when compared to other types of materials, which means it can withstand high pressures without leaking or bursting during normal operation.
The two metals are required to make Duplex SS Pipes– austenitic and ferritic. They are both suitable for many applications, but they both have downfalls that prevent them from being used more widely. Austenitic steels have low strength and resistance to stress corrosion cracking, so although ferritic steels have low strength, poor weldability, and low-temperature toughness. In process of creating a chemical composition that combines austenitic and ferritic results in metal with increased strength, weldability, toughness, and resistance to stress corrosion cracking.
