Super Duplex Steel Plate Price

Super duplex steel plate typically costs from about Rs 800/kg in India and $10-15/kg in international markets. Final prices depend on grade, thickness, surface finish and order quantity. Because nickel and molybdenum follow global commodity prices, surcharges can change monthly and affect overall cost.

Super Duplex Steel Plate Grades

We offer super duplex steel plate in grade 2507. This grade is engineered for demanding environments, where the capabilities of standard duplex or austenitic grades are not sufficient.

Grade 2507 (S32750 / SAF 2507)

Super Duplex Grade 2507 (S32750 / SAF 2507) plate is the most common super duplex plate. Its high chromium, molybdenum, and nitrogen content gives it a pitting resistance equivalent number (PREN) of about 43, which results in excellent corrosion resistance.

Industrial Applications of Super Duplex Steel Plate

In industries where equipment faces salt-rich environments and heavy loads, super duplex steel plate is commonly used. The main requirement is pitting resistance above PREN 40. Four major industries use it, as outlined below.

Oil & Gas Industry

Process vessels, separators, and manifolds rely on the SDSS plate for pressure containment in sour service conditions offshore. Flow line components are another common use.

Chemical Processing

Reactor vessels and heat exchangers built from super duplex plate handle sulphuric and phosphoric acids. Organic acids are also well tolerated, unlike with lower-alloy steels.

Offshore & Marine Structures

NORSOK MDS D55 qualified super duplex plate is specified for structural members and risers in North Sea operations. Seawater-exposed components are a particular focus.

Desalination & Water Treatment

The alloy's ability to resist hot, high-chloride water at elevated temperatures is especially useful for evaporator plates and brine heaters used in desalination plants.

Super Duplex Steel Plate vs Duplex Steel Plate

The comparison table below highlights the key differences between Super duplex plate (PREN >40), which provides nearly double the yield strength and significantly higher pitting resistance compared to standard duplex 2205 plate (PREN ~35).

Property Super Duplex 2507 Duplex 2205
PREN >40 (~43) ~35
Tensile Strength (min) 116 ksi (800 MPa) 90 ksi (620 MPa)
Yield Strength (min) 80 ksi (550 MPa) 65 ksi (450 MPa)
Elongation (min) 15% 25%
Chromium 24.0-26.0% 22.0-23.0%
Molybdenum 3.0-5.0% 3.0-3.5%
Nitrogen 0.24-0.32% 0.14-0.20%

Super duplex plate costs more because of its higher alloy content, but its higher strength allows you to use thinner plates, cutting total weight and helping offset the higher price per kg.

Frequently Asked Questions:

What ASTM specification covers Super duplex steel plate?+
Super duplex steel plate is covered by ASTM A240 / ASME SA-240. This specification addresses chromium-nickel stainless steel plate, sheet and strip.
What is the price of Super duplex steel plate per kg?+
Pricing starts from approximately Rs 800/kg in India and $10-15/kg internationally. The final cost depends on grade and thickness. Surface finish and order quantity also play a role. Contact our sales team for current market rates.
What sizes are available for Super duplex steel plate?+
Thicknesses range from 3 mm to 150 mm. Width goes up to 2500 mm, and length up to 12000 mm. Custom-cut sizes are available on request.
Is Super duplex steel plate magnetic?+
Yes. Super duplex steel plate is slightly magnetic due to its approximately 50% ferrite phase. Fully austenitic stainless steels (such as 304 or 316) don't exhibit this response, but the ferritic component in SDSS plate produces a detectable magnetic pull.
Can Super duplex steel plate be welded?+
Yes, it can be welded using matching fillers like ER2594/E2594. Keep heat input between 0.5-2.5 kJ/mm and interpass temperature below 150°C. Thick plates may need post-weld solution annealing to restore the 50:50 phase balance.
What is the difference between a Super duplex plate and a duplex plate?+
Super duplex plate has more alloying elements and a higher PREN than duplex 2205. It offers better corrosion resistance and nearly double the yield strength. 80 ksi compared to 65 ksi for duplex 2205.
What industries use Super duplex steel plate?+
Super duplex steel plate is mainly used in offshore oil and gas, chemical plants, desalination and water treatment and marine construction, where it must withstand high loads in salty, corrosive environments.
Where to buy Super duplex steel plate?+
Sachiya Steel International stocks super duplex steel plate (S32750) in Mumbai and ships worldwide with EN 10204 3.2 certificates in secure, seaworthy packaging. Contact us for pricing.
