Corrosion Resistance

This grade is commonly used in chloride stress cracking environments which require considerable resistance. Resistance to sulphide cracking is provided along with sour-gas cracking environments. It can effectively resist corrosion in seawater. The grade has exceptional pitting and crevice corrosion resistance, due to its chemical composition and has a critical pitting temperature of about 50°C. It retains its strength along with corrosion resistance in wide range of environments like organic and un-organic acids, strong alkalis, non-oxidizing acids, etc.

Heat Treatment

Annealing is done on the grade to remove internal stresses and restore its grain structure and ductility. It is done after the forming processes to restore its mechanical properties. Annealing is done around 1100-1150°C, followed by appropriate soaking through the sections.

• Time at temperature should be managed according to the sections.
• Sufficient time needs to be provided for the centre sections to reach the heat treatment temperature. Followed by water quenching

Welding

Welding procedures are similar to those applied for conventional duplex stainless steel grades. Electric arc welding

processes is suitable for UNS S32760 super duplex stainless steel, though oxyacetylene welding is not

recommended due to the possibility of carbon pick up in the weld area. We recommend you contact your welding

consumables supplier who should provide you full assistance and information of welding UNS S32760 super

duplex.
