Duplex Steel Forgings consist of about 22–25% chromium, 4.5–7% nickel, and 2.5–3.5% molybdenum, along with nitrogen and manganese, with the remainder being iron. This unique dual-phase (ferritic-austenitic) alloy structure grants it remarkable mechanical properties, including a tensile strength ranging from 620–800 MPa and a yield strength of 450–550 MPa. Duplex steel is known for its exceptional resistance to stress corrosion cracking, pitting, and crevice corrosion. It also retains good weldability and toughness, even in low temperatures. These characteristics make Duplex Steel forgings perfect for components that face aggressive media and high mechanical stress.

Verify duplex steel forgings' quality by checking certifications, such as ASTM or ISO standards, conducting material testing (e.g., tensile, hardness, corrosion resistance), and inspecting for consistent dimensions, surface finish, and proper labeling.
Yes, duplex steel forgings are highly resistant to corrosion due to their unique blend of austenitic and ferritic microstructures, providing excellent resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking.
The maximum operating temperature for duplex steel forgings typically ranges from 250°C to 300°C (482°F to 572°F), depending on the specific grade and application, to maintain optimal mechanical properties.
Duplex Steel Forgings find extensive use in applications that demand a blend of high strength and excellent corrosion resistance. In the oil and gas sector, they are commonly used in valves, flanges, manifolds, and subsea equipment. The marine industry utilizes them for propeller shafts, pumps, and seawater handling systems. In chemical processing, Duplex forgings are essential for heat exchangers, reactors, and storage tanks that come into contact with harsh chemicals. Power plants rely on them for boilers, pressure vessels, and steam systems. Their resistance to chloride-induced corrosion and impressive mechanical performance make Duplex Steel Forgings ideal for critical applications in challenging environments.
