Product Overview

What are SS 2205 (Duplex) Studs?

SS 2205 (Duplex) studs are high-strength, corrosion-resistant fasteners manufactured from duplex stainless steel UNS S32205 bar stock, conforming to ASTM A276 and ASTM A479. The duplex microstructure, with approximately equal proportions of austenite and ferrite, provides a unique combination of high tensile strength (620 MPa min) and excellent resistance to chloride-induced pitting and stress corrosion cracking.

SS 2205 studs are widely specified for flange connections, pressure vessels, and structural assemblies in aggressive environments where standard austenitic stainless steels (such as 316L) are prone to failure. They are NACE MR0175/ISO 15156 compliant for sour service and are the industry standard for offshore, chemical, and desalination plant bolting.

Material Chemistry

SS 2205 (Duplex) Chemical Composition

SS 2205 (Duplex) Studs are produced from a ferritic-austenitic steel with chromium (21–23%), molybdenum (3–3.5%), and nitrogen (0.14–0.20%) controlled per ASTM. Nitrogen is the critical alloying element: it simultaneously raises PREN to ≥ 35 for chloride pitting resistance and strengthens the austenite phase to achieve 450 MPa minimum yield — twice that of SS 316L.

Chemical Composition per ASTM A276 / A479

Why SS 2205 (Duplex) Alloy Composition Matters for Studs

Cr (21–23%) & Mo (2.5–3.5%) — Pitting & Crevice Resistance
The high chromium and molybdenum content gives SS 2205 studs a PREN of 34+, ensuring superior resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion in chloride-rich environments such as seawater and process brines.
N (0.14–0.20%) — Strength & SCC Resistance
Nitrogen increases yield strength and enhances resistance to chloride stress corrosion cracking, making SS 2205 studs ideal for critical bolted joints in aggressive chemical and marine applications.
Balanced Duplex Structure
The dual-phase (austenite/ferrite) microstructure provides a unique combination of high mechanical strength and excellent corrosion resistance, outperforming both 316L and 904L in many industrial environments.
