1.4462 Duplex

1-4462-duplex-stainless-steel-image

1.4462 duplex stainless steel, also known as “2205”, combines the strength of ferritic steels with the corrosion resistance of austenitic grades. This duplex 1.4462 offers high yield strength and excellent resistance to pitting, crevice, and stress-corrosion cracking, making it suitable for demanding offshore, marine, and industrial environments.

Key Features

This grade provides nearly double the strength of standard austenitic stainless steels, with a balanced duplex microstructure of approximately 50% austenite and 50% ferrite that enhances mechanical and corrosion performance. Stainless steel 1.4462 also offers good weldability under proper controls, supporting critical applications in chemical, oil and gas, and marine sectors.

Typical Applications
  • Offshore and marine structural components, risers and platforms
  • Chemical processing equipment, storage tanks and piping
  • Pressure vessels and heat exchangers in chloride rich or aggressive environments
  • Oil & gas production and transport systems where strength and corrosion resistance combine
Forms of Supply

Available as plates, sheets, bars, pipes, and fittings in solution annealed condition, with cut to size options for industrial projects. As a leading 1.4462 duplex stainless steel supplier, we serve clients across UAE, Oman, and Saudi Arabia with certified materials for reliable performance.
