Duplex 2205

UNS S31803 / S32205EN 1.4462JIS SUS329J3L
Stock statusEx-stock Dubai
Typical lead time2 - 3 working days ex Dubai

The most widely used duplex grade. Roughly double the yield strength of 316L, allowing thinner and lighter sections while delivering far better chloride stress corrosion cracking resistance.

  • Twice the yield strength of 316L
  • High chloride SCC resistance
  • Lower nickel content stabilises cost
