Super Duplex 2507 Pipe
Super Duplex 2507 (UNS S32750) is a high-performance stainless steel alloy designed for extreme strength, corrosion resistance, and durability. With a balanced microstructure of austenite and ferrite, Super Duplex 2507 offers superior resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking. This makes it an ideal choice for demanding industrial applications such as offshore oil and gas, marine engineering, and chemical processing.
Key Features of Super Duplex 2507 Pipes
Exceptional Corrosion Resistance:
Super Duplex 2507 has high chromium (25%), molybdenum (4%), and nitrogen content, providing excellent resistance to chloride-induced pitting and stress corrosion cracking. This makes it highly suitable for seawater applications, desalination plants, and aggressive chemical environments.
High Strength and Toughness:
With nearly twice the yield strength of standard austenitic stainless steels like 316L and 304L, Super Duplex 2507 pipes can handle high-pressure and high-stress conditions effectively.
Excellent Weldability and Fabricability:
Despite its high strength, Super Duplex 2507 is highly weldable and formable, making it an excellent material for structural and piping applications in harsh environments.
Extended Service Life:
The superior mechanical properties and corrosion resistance of Super Duplex 2507 allow for a longer service life compared to conventional stainless steels, reducing maintenance costs and downtime.
