S32750 Stainless Steel Plate High Strength and Superior Pitting Resistance Alloy 2507

Products Specification

Overview

SAF 2507 (UNS S32750, EN 1.4410) is a super duplex stainless steel characterized by a balanced microstructure of approximately 50% ferrite (α) and 50% austenite (γ). This dual-phase structure combines exceptional strength, superior corrosion resistance, and excellent toughness, making it ideal for demanding industrial applications in aggressive environments136.

Key Features

1. Exceptional Corrosion Resistance

   • PRE (Pitting Resistance Equivalent) > 43: Outstanding resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking (SCC) in chloride-rich environments (e.g., seawater, chemical solutions)1710.

   • Superior to 904L and comparable to 6% Mo super-austenitic grades (e.g., 254SMO)13.

   • Resists diluted sulfuric/hydrochloric acids and organic acids (e.g., formic, acetic acid)78.

2. High Mechanical Strength

   • Yield Strength ≥ 550 MPa, Tensile Strength: 795–1000 MPa (twice the strength of standard austenitic steels like 316L)1810.

   • Elongation: ≥25%, Hardness: ≤ 310 HB28.

3. Thermal Stability

   • Low thermal expansion coefficient and high thermal conductivity410.

   • Temperature Limit: Prolonged exposure above 570°F (300°C) may reduce toughness; optimal use below this threshold410.

Chemical Composition (wt.%)

Physical Properties

• Density: 8.03 g/cm³

• Melting Point: 1300–1390°C

• Magnetism: Non-magnetic (annealed condition)48.

Corrosion Resistance Highlights

• Stress Corrosion Cracking (SCC): Excellent resistance in chloride environments17.

• Intergranular Corrosion: Low carbon content (≤0.03%) minimizes carbide precipitation risks78.

• Erosion-Corrosion & Fatigue: High resistance in marine and acidic media110.

Heat Treatment & Fabrication

• Solution Annealing: 1000–1052°C (rapid air/water cooling) to maintain 50/50 α/γ phase balance28.

• Welding:

  • Recommended Filler: ER2594 wire or E2594 electrode28.

  • Control heat input to avoid detrimental phase formation (e.g., sigma, chi phases)68.

Applications

SAF 2507 plates are widely used in:

• Oil & Gas: Offshore platforms, heat exchangers, seawater piping, subsea components17.

• Chemical Processing: Reactors, pressure vessels, acid-handling equipment38.

• Desalination Plants: High-pressure RO systems, seawater pipelines15.

• Pollution Control: Flue gas desulfurization (FGD) scrubbers, absorber towers38.

• Marine & Structural: Propeller shafts, corrosion-resistant structural parts310.

Available Plate Specifications

Custom sizes and processing (e.g., cutting, grinding) available189.

Key Considerations

• Avoid High Temperatures: Prolonged use >300°C degrades toughness410.

• Cost Efficiency: Higher initial cost than 2205 duplex steel but cost-effective vs. nickel alloys18.

• Certifications: Supplied with mill test reports (MTRs) per ASTM standards89.

Why Choose SAF 2507 Plates?

• Weight Savings: High strength allows thinner sections vs. conventional steels610.

• Longevity: Nano-scale Cr-Mo-N segregation at phase boundaries enables self-repairing passive films6.

• Extreme Environment Suitability: Validated for 3000m deep-sea pressure and hydrogen-rich conditions6.
