Industry Applications
of Duplex Stainless Steel
Sandmeyer Steel Company stocks duplex
stainless steel plate in alloy 2507, alloy 2205, and
alloy 2304 for service in a variety of industries. Whether
you need superior corrosion resistance or enhanced mechanical
properties, Sandmeyer Steel Company provides the stainless
plate or fabricates the stainless steel plate products
that you need. Please visit our Stainless
Steel Plate Inventory page to learn more or read
on to discover some of the ways that duplex stainless
steel plate is serving industries today.
Duplex Stainless Steel Plate in
Food Processing and Beverage Bottling
In the processing and packaging of food products, companies
must be careful not to allow the components of the storage,
transport, or processing equipment to contaminate product.
The result could be an unpleasant taste or a hazardous
particulate. Food and beverage companies rely on duplex
stainless steel for the fabrication of many of these
parts and components which include piping or storage
tanks. Duplex stainless steel resists erosion that taints
product as well as pitting and crevice corrosion which
could result in loss of product.
Pharmaceutical Processing Components
in Duplex Stainless Steel
The processing of pharmaceutical drugs require a corrosion
and erosion resistant material that is also easily cleaned
by external and internal means. Duplex stainless steel
not only resists damage by caustic chemicals that could
contaminate the drug or damage the vessel resulting
in loss, but also has a surface that can be easily cleaned
Duplex Stainless Steel Plate
in Desalinization Plants
Desalinization plants require components made of a high
grade stainless steel that resists corrosion by water
as well as highly-concentrated brine and that also has
the appropriate mechanical properties to withstand metal
fatigue and pressure deformation. 2507 super duplex
stainless steel plate is an excellent choice for desalinization
as well as sea water piping because it resists localized
and general corrosion in the presence of concentrate
and maintains high strength.
Pulp and Paper Applications of
Duplex Stainless Steel
With corrosion resistance superior to austenitic alloy
316L and alloy 317L, 2205 duplex stainless steel is
used by the pulp and paper industry for bleaching equipment,
digesters, and stock-handling systems. Duplex stainless
steel 2304 is a good choice for chip storage tanks,
black and white liquor storage tanks, and digesters.
With corrosion resistance similar to alloys 304 and
316, alloy 2304 has enhanced mechanical properties for
yield and impact strength.
Duplex Stainless Steel Plate in
the Mining Industry
The mining industry uses duplex stainless steel plate
for material transport equipment that can withstand
erosion and abrasion by coarse, heavy debris. The high
yield strength of alloy 2304 makes it an excellent choice
for many mining applications.
Duplex stainless steel is used in many industries besides
those listed here. Please visit the pages for 2304
