Description and applications*
Austenitic-ferritic duplex stainless steel filler metal characterized by a PREN (Pitting Resistance Equivalent Number) at least 40,thereby allowing the weld metal to be called a “superduplex stainless steel”.
It provides excellent resistance to intergranular corrosion, pitting and stress corrosion cracking in chloride environment. Very high mechanical strength.
This grade may be used for:
• welding, joining and surfacing of all duplex and superduplex stainless steels when the highest possible corrosion resistance is required;
• welding of carbon and low alloy steels to duplex stainless steels;
• welding standard duplex stainless steels such as W.Nr.1.4462 especially for roots runs in pipe;
• applications in petrochemical and offshore industry, e.g. plates and pipeworks;
• applications where outstanding resistance to highly corrosive media under oxidizing and reducing conductions is required;
• applications where high resistance to erosion corrosion and corrosion fatigue is required;
• applications in the pulp and paper industry, and for the production of pollution control equipments for environmental protection
