2205 duplex stainless steel outperforms 316 in nearly every key metric—offering superior strength, enhanced corrosion resistance (particularly against chloride and stress‐corrosion cracking), and excellent fatigue performance—while remaining cost-effective for many demanding applications. 1. Introduction As metal experts at Luokaiwei, we have evaluated both alloys side by side. 2205 duplex stainless steel delivers roughly twice the

In industrial applications, the pressure rating of stainless steel pipes is a critical factor in determining the pipe's capability to withstand internal pressures without failure. For SCH 40 stainless steel pipes, understanding the pressure rating is crucial for safe and efficient system design. As experts in the field of metal materials, we will break down

Stainless steel pipe roughness plays a crucial role in various applications, influencing flow characteristics, corrosion resistance, and the overall performance of systems. It refers to the texture or surface irregularities found on the interior of stainless steel pipes, affecting the frictional resistance encountered by fluids flowing through them. The roughness is influenced by the manufacturing
