Super Duplex

Ferralium 255-SD50, UNS S32750 & UNS S32760

In the 1960’s Langley Alloys developed the first commercially available 25% Chromium Duplex alloy, Ferralium 255, and coined the phrase Super Duplex. It pioneered the use of a deliberate nitrogen addition in order to improve ductility and corrosion resistance.

Super Duplex alloys are characterised by higher Chromium content than standard duplex stainless, typically around 25% and a PREN > 40 (PREN = Cr% + 3.3Mo% + 16N%) and offer improved corrosion resistance and better mechanical properties.

Langley Alloys offer all 3 grades of Super Duplex  (Ferralium 255-SD50, UNS S32750 & UNS S32760) from stock in all forms.
