Rod alloy steel Sandvik SAF2507

corrosion resistanthigh-strengthannealed

Sandvik SAF2507 is a super-duplex stainless steel for service in highly corrosive conditions, similar to Alloy 32750. As a super duplex stainless steel, the SAF 2507 combines the desirable aspects of both austenitic and ferritic grades. The higher chromium, molybdenum and nitrogen contents result in a Pitting Resistance Equivalent number (PREN) of >41, providing pitting and crevice corrosion resistance superior to austenitic and duplex stainless steels in almost all corrosive media, and a Critical Pitting Temperature exceeding 50°C. Supplied in the annealed condition, the Sandvik SAF2507 achieves yield strengths of 80ksi (550Mpa), greater than most austenitic and duplex stainless steel grades. It cannot be hardened by heat treatment but can be strengthened by cold working. The Saf2507 also exhibits a low coefficient of thermal expansion and higher heat conductivity than austenitic steels and is suitable for working temperatures up to 300°C. Alloy 32750 is listed in NACE MR 0175 for sour service and having gained ASME Approval for Pressure Vessel applications it can be used in a wide variety of applications. Key Features: Physical properties that offer design advantages Good weldability Applications: Oil and Gas exploration and production – Chloride-containing environments such as seawater handling and process systems Oil and Gas – refining, petrochemical and gas processing facilities where the process environment contains a high amount of chlorides, or is contaminated with hydrochloric acid Marine – Mechanical components requiring high strength such as propeller shafts subject to high mechanical load in seawater and other chloride-containing environments
