Duplex Steel UNS S31803 Welded Pipes are corrosion-resistant stainless steel pipes manufactured by forming duplex stainless steel plate, sheet, or strip into a cylindrical shape and joining the longitudinal edges through a controlled welding process. UNS S31803 is a widely used duplex stainless steel grade that combines the beneficial properties of austenitic and ferritic stainless steels, offering a balance of high mechanical strength, toughness and corrosion resistance.
The duplex microstructure of UNS S31803 provides good resistance to general corrosion, pitting, crevice corrosion and chloride-induced stress corrosion cracking. Compared with many conventional austenitic stainless steel grades, Duplex Steel UNS S31803 provides higher yield strength, making it suitable for applications where both structural strength and corrosion resistance are important.
