Product Overview

What are Duplex 2304 Bolts?

Duplex 2304 bolts are high-strength, corrosion-resistant fasteners manufactured from UNS S32304 duplex stainless steel bar stock, conforming to ASTM A479 and ASTM A182 standards. This alloy features a balanced dual-phase microstructure of austenite and ferrite, providing superior mechanical strength and enhanced resistance to stress corrosion cracking compared to standard austenitic stainless steels.

With a PREN of 26-28, Duplex 2304 bolts offer excellent pitting and crevice corrosion resistance in chloride-rich environments, making them a cost-effective alternative to 316L and 2205 for many industrial applications. They are widely specified for pressure vessels, piping systems, and structural connections in chemical processing, desalination, and marine industries.

Material Chemistry

Duplex 2304 Chemical Composition

Duplex 2304 Bolts 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.

Why Duplex 2304 Alloy Composition Matters for Bolts

Cr (21.5–24.5%) — Pitting & Crevice Resistance
High chromium content gives Duplex 2304 bolts a PREN of 26–28, ensuring strong resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion in chloride-laden environments, outperforming 316L in many marine and chemical applications.
Dual-Phase Microstructure — Stress Corrosion Cracking Resistance
The balanced austenite-ferrite structure provides excellent resistance to chloride stress corrosion cracking, making Duplex 2304 bolts ideal for piping and pressure vessel connections exposed to aggressive process media.
Low Carbon & Nitrogen Addition
Low carbon and controlled nitrogen additions prevent intergranular corrosion and enhance mechanical strength, ensuring reliable performance in welded assemblies and high-load bolted joints.
