Product Overview

What are Duplex 2304 Washers?

Duplex 2304 washers are corrosion-resistant fastener components manufactured from UNS S32304 duplex stainless steel, conforming to ASTM A240 and ASTM A182 standards. This alloy features a balanced dual-phase microstructure of austenite and ferrite, providing superior strength and stress corrosion cracking resistance compared to standard 304/316 stainless steel.

With a PREN of 26-28, Duplex 2304 washers offer excellent resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion in chloride-rich environments, making them ideal for use in chemical processing, desalination, and marine applications. Their high yield strength and moderate nickel content ensure cost-effective performance in demanding bolted joint assemblies.

Material Chemistry

Duplex 2304 Chemical Composition

Duplex 2304 Washers 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 Washers

Cr (21.5–24.5%) — Corrosion Resistance
High chromium content ensures Duplex 2304 washers resist pitting and crevice corrosion in chloride-rich and marine environments, outperforming 304/316L in many applications.
Dual-Phase Structure — Strength & SCC Resistance
The balanced ferrite-austenite microstructure provides high yield strength and excellent resistance to stress corrosion cracking, making these washers ideal for bolted joints in aggressive media.
Low Nickel — Cost Efficiency
With only 3–5.5% Ni, Duplex 2304 offers a cost-effective alternative to higher nickel alloys while maintaining robust corrosion performance.
