Marine & Offshore Components Manufacturer, Supplier & Exporter – Inox Steel India

Duplex & Nickel Alloy Components

Inox Steel India is a trusted manufacturer, supplier, and exporter of forged and machined marine and offshore components, supplying duplex stainless steel and nickel alloy components for shipbuilding, offshore platforms, subsea systems, and marine infrastructure projects across India, GCC, Middle East, Africa, Europe, and the Americas.

Marine and offshore environments are among the most aggressive service conditions, characterized by continuous seawater exposure, high chloride concentration, cyclic loading, pressure fluctuations, and in many cases sour service conditions. These demanding conditions require materials with exceptional corrosion resistance, high strength, and long-term reliability.

At Inox Steel India, marine and offshore components are manufactured using controlled forging and solution annealing, followed by precision machining, fully aligned with ASTM, ASME, EN, NACE, and project-specific offshore standards.

What Are Marine & Offshore Components?

Marine and offshore components are structural, pressure-retaining, and load-bearing parts used in equipment and systems operating in seawater and offshore environments.

Typical components include:

  • Shafts and rotating components
  • Flanges and connectors
  • Valve bodies and housings
  • Structural and load-bearing forgings
  • Subsea and offshore system components

These components must withstand:

  • Continuous exposure to seawater and chlorides
  • High pressure and cyclic mechanical loads
  • Risk of pitting, crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking
  • Long service intervals with minimal maintenance

Forged construction ensures directional grain flow, superior toughness, and resistance to fatigue and cracking.

Manufacturing Process Followed at Inox Steel India

  1. Material Selection & Traceability: Certified duplex and nickel alloy raw materials are selected in compliance with ASTM and NACE requirements, with full heat traceability.
  2. Forging Process: Components are forged using open-die or closed-die forging, ensuring refined grain structure and high internal soundness.
  3. Heat Treatment: Solution Annealing for duplex and super duplex grades | Controlled cooling to ensure balanced austenite-ferrite microstructure.
  4. Machining: CNC machining is carried out to achieve precise dimensions and sealing profiles.
  5. Inspection & Testing: All components undergo UT, MPI, PMI, mechanical testing, and corrosion-related checks.
