Duplex Steel UNS S31803 Forged Fittings are composed of around 22% chromium, 5-6% nickel, 3% molybdenum, and small amounts of nitrogen, manganese, and silicon. This unique blend enhances their strength, corrosion resistance, and resistance to stress corrosion cracking, especially in chloride environments. Mechanically, these fittings offer a tensile strength of 620-850 MPa, yield strength of 450 MPa, and approximately 25% elongation. They also exhibit excellent toughness, high fatigue resistance, and good weldability, making them ideal for high-pressure, high-temperature applications in industries like oil and gas, marine, and chemical processing.
