Duplex Steel Flanges Manufacturer, Supplier & Stockist
Kalpaturu Piping Solutions is a well-known manufacturer, supplier and exporter of Duplex Steel S31803 & S32205 Flanges in India. We also offer a full-scale variety of flanges, such as slip-on, socket weld, blind, lapped, screwed, weld neck and reducing flanges, to suit a wide variety of industrial needs. Our ANSI B16.5 Duplex Blind Flanges have superior toughness and ductility over the standard ferritic stainless steels in that they are suitable for the highly demanding applications.
We have various sizes, thicknesses, shapes and specifications of our ASME SA182 Duplex Steel Flanges in order to suit the individual requirements of the clients. The flanges have found extensive application in the chemical, oil and gas, fertiliser and heavy engineering industries. Duplex stainless steel flanges, especially S31803 and S32205, are characterised by high stress corrosion cracking (SCC) capabilities, which are passed on through their ferritic stainless steel characteristics.
The chromium, molybdenum, and nitrogen content of duplex steel is better than the austenitic grades in terms of resistance to chloride pitting and crevice corrosion, and the reduced nickel and molybdenum content makes duplex steel cost-effective in terms of corrosion resistance without significantly reducing corrosion-protecting durability.
Being a reputable manufacturer, supplier, and stockist, Kalpaturu Piping Solutions provides these ASTM A182 duplex steel flanges with very competitive prices guaranteed by quality assurance and timely delivery, and hence is a good solution to the industrial piping needs.

FAQs About Duplex Steel Flanges
A duplex flange is a piping component manufactured from duplex stainless steel, typically grades UNS S31803 or S32205. It combines the properties of austenitic and ferritic stainless steels, offering high strength, excellent corrosion resistance, and good toughness. Duplex flanges are commonly used to connect pipes, valves, and equipment in high-pressure and corrosive environments.
Duplex stainless steel is widely used in industries that require high strength and superior corrosion resistance. Common applications include oil and gas pipelines, chemical processing plants, offshore platforms, desalination units, heat exchangers, and marine systems, especially where resistance to chloride stress corrosion cracking is essential.
Duplex steel offers several advantages, including higher mechanical strength, excellent resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking, and improved durability in harsh environments. It also provides better cost efficiency due to lower nickel content compared to austenitic stainless steels, while maintaining long service life.
The three main types of duplex stainless steel are Lean Duplex, Standard Duplex (such as Duplex 2205), and Super Duplex. Lean duplex provides moderate corrosion resistance with cost efficiency, standard duplex offers balanced strength and corrosion resistance, and super duplex delivers enhanced performance for extreme pressure and highly corrosive applications
