Grades: UNS S31803 (Duplex 2205), UNS S32750 (Super Duplex 2507)
Inox Steel India is a trusted manufacturer, supplier, and exporter of Duplex & Super Duplex Forged Bars, supplying high-performance forged solutions in UNS S31803 (Duplex 2205) and UNS S32750 (Super Duplex 2507) to industries across India, GCC, Middle East, Africa, Europe, and North & South America.
Duplex and super duplex stainless steel forged bars are specifically engineered for high-strength, corrosion-critical, and chloride-rich environments, where conventional austenitic stainless steels are not sufficient. Their dual-phase microstructure (austenitic + ferritic) delivers exceptional mechanical strength, superior resistance to stress corrosion cracking (SCC), and long service life in aggressive service conditions.
At Inox Steel India, duplex forged bars are produced using controlled hot forging followed by solution annealing, ensuring optimal phase balance, corrosion resistance, and full compliance with ASTM, ASME, and EN standards.
Duplex and super duplex forged bars are solid stainless steel sections manufactured by hot forging duplex-grade billets under high compressive force, followed by precise heat treatment to maintain the correct ferrite–austenite balance.
Compared to conventional stainless steel grades, duplex forged bars offer:
These properties make duplex forged bars the preferred material for offshore, marine, oil & gas, chemical processing, and desalination applications.
🔹 Duplex 2205 Forged Bars – UNS S31803
Duplex 2205 offers an ideal balance of strength, corrosion resistance, and cost efficiency. It is widely used in offshore platforms, chemical reactors, pressure vessels, and heat exchangers exposed to chlorides.
🔹 Super Duplex 2507 Forged Bars – UNS S32750
Super Duplex 2507 provides very high strength and exceptional pitting resistance (PREN ≥ 40). It is the preferred choice for subsea equipment, desalination plants, seawater systems, and critical oil & gas components.
