Product Overview

What are Ferralium 255 Bolts?

Ferralium 255 bolts are high-performance super duplex stainless steel fasteners manufactured from UNS S32550 bar stock, conforming to ASTM A276 and ASTM A479. With a dual-phase microstructure and a PREN (Pitting Resistance Equivalent Number) of 40+, Ferralium 255 bolts offer outstanding resistance to pitting, crevice, and stress corrosion cracking in aggressive chloride and acidic environments.

These bolts deliver a minimum tensile strength of 800 MPa and are widely specified for critical bolted joints in seawater, desalination, chemical processing, and offshore oil & gas applications. Ferralium 255 bolts are NORSOK M-650 and NACE MR0175/ISO 15156 compliant for sour service and are trusted for their superior mechanical strength and corrosion resistance compared to standard duplex and austenitic stainless steels.

Material Chemistry

Ferralium 255 Chemical Composition

Ferralium 255 Bolts are manufactured from a high-alloy ferritic-austenitic steel containing chromium (24–26%), molybdenum (3.5–5%), and nitrogen (0.24–0.32%) per ASTM. These precise elemental limits produce PREN ≥ 40 — confirming seawater pitting immunity — and deliver the 550 MPa minimum yield strength required for NORSOK M-630 subsea qualification.

Why Ferralium 255 Alloy Composition Matters for Bolts

High Chromium & Molybdenum — Pitting & Crevice Resistance
The elevated chromium (24–26%) and molybdenum (2.9–3.5%) content gives Ferralium 255 bolts a PREN of 40+, ensuring superior resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion in seawater, brine, and aggressive chemical environments.
Copper & Nitrogen — Acid & Chloride Resistance
Copper (1.5–2.0%) enhances resistance to sulphuric and phosphoric acids, while nitrogen increases strength and resistance to chloride-induced stress corrosion cracking, making Ferralium 255 bolts ideal for harsh process conditions.
Dual-Phase Structure — Strength & Toughness
The duplex (ferrite-austenite) microstructure provides a unique combination of high strength and toughness, allowing Ferralium 255 bolts to outperform standard austenitic and duplex stainless steel fasteners in demanding applications.
