Product Description
Werkstoff Nr. 1.4410 (commonly known as Super Duplex 2507 or UNS S32750) is a high-alloy super duplex stainless steel designed for highly corrosive conditions requiring exceptional strength. Like other super duplex grades, it maintains a balanced 50/50 microstructure of ferrite and austenite, providing the best attributes of both phases: high yield strength and superb resistance to stress corrosion cracking.
Compared to standard Duplex 2205, 1.4410 features higher chromium, molybdenum, and nitrogen contents, elevating its corrosion resistance to a level comparable to top-tier austenitic super-stainless steels.
Technical Profile

2. Key Mechanical Properties (Typical Room Temp - Solution Annealed)
-
Tensile Strength ($R_m$): $750 - 1000 text{ MPa}$
-
Yield Strength ($R_{p0.2}$): $ge 530 text{ MPa}$
-
Elongation ($A_5$): $ge 25%$
-
Impact Energy (Charpy-V): Excellent toughness down to $-40^circtext{C}$
3. Pitting Resistance Equivalent Number (PREN)
The guaranteed PREN value for 1.4410 ensures outstanding protection against localized chloride attack:
$$text{PREN} = % text{Cr} + 3.3(% text{Mo}) + 16(% text{N}) ge 41$$
Key Characteristics & Processing
-
Chloride Pitting & Crevice Corrosion: Highly reliable in marine environments and chlorinated water systems where standard 316L or Duplex 2205 would fail via localized pitting.
-
Stress Corrosion Cracking (SCC): The ferritic phase grants the alloy exceptional immunity to chloride-induced SCC at elevated temperatures.
-
Machining & Fabrication: Due to its high yield strength and work-hardening rate, machining 1.4410 round bars requires rigid setups, sharp carbide tooling, low cutting speeds, and heavy feeds.
-
Temperature Limit: Continuous service is generally limited to $-50^circtext{C}$ to $250^circtext{C}$. Extended exposure to temperatures between $300^circtext{C}$ and $900^circtext{C}$ causes the precipitation of brittle phases (such as sigma phase), which drastically reduces toughness and corrosion resistance.
Typical Engineering Applications
-
Offshore Marine Platforms: Seawater cooling systems, firewater systems, ballast water piping, and structural components.
-
Desalination Plants: High-pressure reverse osmosis (RO) piping, high-velocity pumps, and evaporation vessels.
-
Chemical & Petrochemical Processing: Heat exchangers, vessels, and piping components handling organic and inorganic acids, chlorides, and caustic solutions.
-
Pulp & Paper: Bleach plant washers, vessels, and industrial processing shafts.
