Duplex Steel Bars
High-Strength Duplex Bar

Duplex Steel Bars

Duplex 2205 round bars combining high strength with excellent chloride stress-corrosion resistance for offshore machining.

Duplex Steel Bars
ASTM / ASME Certified Material

Product Overview

Duplex 2205's balanced austenitic-ferritic microstructure gives roughly double the yield strength of standard austenitic stainless steel along with superior resistance to chloride stress-corrosion cracking — a common cause of shaft and stem failure offshore.

Bar stock is machined into pump shafts, valve stems and structural fasteners for platforms and process equipment exposed to seawater and sour service.

Technical Note — Ferrite content (typically 35–55% austenite/ferrite balance) is verified on every heat, since deviation from the balanced microstructure erodes the strength and corrosion-resistance advantage duplex is specified for.
