Duplex & Super Duplex Steel Socket Weld & Threaded Forged Fittings

ARK Stainless Inc. is a manufacturer, supplier and exporter of Duplex and Super Duplex Steel Forged Fittings in India. We manufacture socket-weld and threaded forged fittings for piping systems operating in offshore, marine, chemical processing and high-pressure service environments.

Duplex and Super Duplex stainless steels are selected for applications where both mechanical strength and corrosion resistance are important. Their dual-phase microstructure combines the characteristics of austenitic and ferritic stainless steel, providing higher strength than conventional stainless steel grades along with improved resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion and stress corrosion cracking.

We manufacture forged fittings in Duplex grades UNS S31803 and UNS S32205, as well as Super Duplex grades UNS S32750 and UNS S32760. These materials are widely used in seawater systems, desalination plants, offshore platforms, oil and gas installations, chemical processing facilities and other applications exposed to chloride-bearing fluids and corrosive process media.

Our range includes forged elbows, tees, couplings, unions, caps, plugs, bushings, crosses, adapters, pipe nipples and swage nipples manufactured in accordance with ASTM A182, ASME B16.11, MSS SP-79, MSS SP-83, MSS SP-95, MSS SP-97 and BS 3799 standards. Socket weld and threaded forged fittings are available in pressure classes 2000#, 3000#, 6000# and 9000# according to project requirements.

The higher strength of Duplex and Super Duplex stainless steel can help reduce wall thickness requirements in certain piping systems while maintaining pressure-handling capability. These materials are also widely used where resistance to chloride attack and stress corrosion cracking is a key consideration during material selection.

Duplex Steel UNS S31803 Forged Fittings

Duplex Steel UNS S31803 Forged Fittings combine good mechanical strength with resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion in chloride-containing environments. These forged fittings are commonly used in offshore piping, chemical processing equipment, seawater systems and industrial process lines where both strength and corrosion resistance are required.

Duplex Steel UNS S32205 Forged Fittings

Duplex Steel UNS S32205 Forged Fittings are widely used in oil and gas facilities, desalination plants, marine systems and chemical processing units. The grade offers higher strength than conventional austenitic stainless steels while maintaining good resistance to stress corrosion cracking and chloride attack in demanding service conditions.

Super Duplex Steel UNS S32750 Forged Fittings

Super Duplex Steel UNS S32750 Forged Fittings are used in aggressive service environments involving seawater, chlorides and corrosive process fluids. The higher chromium, molybdenum and nitrogen content improves resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion, making S32750 forged fittings suitable for offshore platforms, subsea systems and desalination projects.

Super Duplex Steel UNS S32760 Forged Fittings

Super Duplex Steel UNS S32760 Forged Fittings are commonly installed in offshore oil and gas facilities, marine piping systems and chemical processing plants operating under severe corrosive conditions. The grade combines high strength with resistance to chloride-induced corrosion and stress corrosion cracking in demanding process environments.

Difference Between Duplex and Super Duplex Steel Forged Fittings

The main difference between Duplex and Super Duplex Steel Forged Fittings is the alloy composition and corrosion resistance level. Super Duplex grades contain higher levels of chromium, molybdenum and nitrogen, resulting in greater resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion and chloride attack. Duplex grades are widely used in general offshore and chemical processing applications, while Super Duplex grades are often selected for more aggressive service conditions involving seawater and highly corrosive process fluids.

Applications of Duplex & Super Duplex Steel Forged Fittings

Duplex and Super Duplex Steel Forged Fittings are used in offshore platforms, subsea pipelines, desalination plants, chemical processing facilities, oil and gas projects, marine systems, power generation units and seawater handling installations. These materials are frequently selected for piping systems exposed to chloride-bearing fluids, high pressures and corrosive operating environments.

Types of Duplex & Super Duplex Steel Forged Fittings

Our range includes forged elbows, tees, couplings, unions, caps, plugs, bushings, crosses, adapters, pipe nipples and swage nipples. Available in threaded and socket weld types, these fittings are used throughout process piping systems to connect, divert, reduce or terminate the flow of fluids under pressure.

Mechanical Properties of Duplex & Super Duplex Steel Forged Fittings

Duplex and Super Duplex forged fittings offer higher yield strength than conventional stainless steel grades while maintaining good toughness and corrosion resistance. The dual-phase microstructure contributes to their pressure-handling capability and resistance to stress corrosion cracking in chloride-rich environments.

Specifications of Duplex & Super Duplex Steel Forged Fittings

We manufacture Duplex and Super Duplex forged fittings in accordance with ASTM A182 and ASME SA182 specifications. Dimensional standards include ASME B16.11, MSS SP-79, MSS SP-83, MSS SP-95, MSS SP-97 and BS 3799. Available grades include UNS S31803, UNS S32205, UNS S32750 and UNS S32760.

Pressure Classes Available in Duplex & Super Duplex Steel Forged Fittings

Duplex and Super Duplex forged fittings are manufactured in pressure classes 2000#, 3000#, 6000# and 9000# in accordance with ASME B16.11 requirements. Threaded fittings are typically supplied in class 2000#, 3000# and 6000#, while socket-weld fittings are available in class 3000#, 6000# and 9000#. The required pressure class is determined by the operating conditions of the system, including pressure, temperature and the severity of the service environment.

Socket Weld & Threaded Duplex & Super Duplex Steel Forged Fittings

Duplex and Super Duplex forged fittings are available in both socket weld and threaded designs for offshore, marine and process piping applications. Socket weld fittings are generally selected for permanently welded systems, while threaded fittings are frequently used in smaller pipe sizes where inspection, dismantling or replacement may be required during service. NPT, BSP and BSPT thread forms are available to suit different piping standards and project requirements.

Duplex Steel Forged Fittings are known for their robust construction, high tensile strength, and low maintenance needs, ensuring long-term durability and reduced downtime. The increased corrosion resistance compared to carbon steel and stainless steel allows for a more reliable and efficient system, with lighter construction and fewer welding requirements, ultimately contributing to a more compact and cost-effective design.

Why Choose Super Duplex Over Standard Stainless Steel

Super Duplex S32750 and S32760 forged fittings are often selected for piping systems where standard stainless steel grades such as SS 304 and SS 316L may not provide the required combination of strength and corrosion resistance. The higher mechanical strength of Super Duplex stainless steel can support high-pressure service while maintaining good resistance to corrosion.

Super Duplex grades also offer better resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion in chloride-containing environments. As a result, these materials are frequently used in seawater systems, offshore platforms, desalination plants and chemical processing facilities handling corrosive process fluids.

Another advantage of Super Duplex stainless steel is its resistance to chloride-induced stress corrosion cracking, a factor that can influence material selection in marine environments and other applications exposed to chlorides. For this reason, Super Duplex forged fittings are widely used in offshore, marine and chemical processing industries.
