Duplex Alloy 2304 UNS EN SAE S32304 ASTM
A240 overview
Stainless steel grade Duplex 2304 is a duplex stainless steel type
with a structure that is a balance of ferritic and austenitic. It
has high strength and toughness, resistance to stress corrosion
cracking, high thermal conductivity, low thermal expansion, and
easy fabrication. It is recommended that this steel is not used in
areas where the steel would be exposes to temperatures over 1058°C
(570°F) for prolonged periods.
Duplex Alloy 2304 As a two-phase, ferritic, austenitic 23%
chromium, 4% nickel, molybdenum-free duplex stainless steel. It has
similar corrosion resistance properties to 316L. Furthemore, its
mechanical properties are twice those of 304L/316L austenitic
grades. This allows the designer to save weight, particularly for
properly designed pressure vessel applications. The alloy is
partcularly suitable for applications covering the -50 °C/+300 °C
temperature range.

Coil Slitting Mill Capability :
Striping processing, commonly known as “slitting “, refers to the
winding of a metal coil by unwinding, slitting, leveling, winding,
and processing into a desired width. Slitting processing is a basic
metal processing technology that combines high-quality equipment
with skilled craftsmanship. it can be obtained with strict
tolerance, perfect surface control , safe packaging as well as fine
transportation.
