What is 2.4858?

2.4858 is the Werkstoff designation for the nickel-based Alloy 825. 

Stainless Steels

What is 22Cr?

22Cr is shorthand for a stainless steel based upon a composition of 22% chromium – a duplex stainless steel. 

Super Duplex

What is 25Cr?

25Cr is shorthand for a kind of super duplex stainless steel, based upon a composition of 25% chromium. How Does 25CR differ from Standard Stainless Steel? Chromium is a normal component of Stainless Steel — where it is used to increase the steel’s resistance to oxidation. An increase in the level of chromium increases this […]

What is the difference between S32750 and S32760?

S32750 and S32760 are both super duplex stainless steels (SDSS). As such, their microstructure is a combination of austenitic and ferritic grains, which imparts the most favourable properties of each. They are based upon a 25% chromium content (25Cr), but differences in their mechanical properties, physical properties and composition are small. 

Super Duplex

What is SDSS?

SDSS is an acronym for Super Duplex Stainless Steel. A duplex stainless steel is a combination of a ferritic and an austenitic microstructure, and combines the most favourable properties of each.  There are a number of different SDSS available, as the family of alloys based upon a 25% chromium (25Cr) content has developed since the 1960’s.

Super Duplex

What is Alloy 255?

Alloy 255 is a generic description of our unique Ferralium 255 super duplex stainless steel (DIN 1.4507, UNS S32550, ASTM F61).

What is CG6MMn?

CG6MMn is a cast product specification most closely aligning to the wrought super duplex stainless steel product UNS S20910.

What is CD3Mn?

CD3Mn is a cast product specification most closely aligning to the wrought super duplex stainless steel product UNS S32205.

What is CD4MCuN?

CD4MCuN is a cast product specification most closely aligning to the wrought super duplex stainless steel product UNS S32550.

What is CE3Mn?

CE3Mn is a cast product specification most closely aligning to the wrought super duplex stainless steel product UNS S32750.

What is CD3MWCuN
