Description

1.4507 (X2CrNiMoCuN25-6-3) is a super duplex stainless steel widely used in critical offshore, petrochemical and chemical plant applications. It is based on a 26% chromium and 6% nickel composition. The grade has very good pitting and crevice corrosion resistance resulting from a controlled addition of copper, as well as excellent ductility and impact strength at both ambient and sub-zero temperatures, combined with a high resistance to abrasion, erosion and cavitation erosion. These features make it particularly suitable for use in seawater and other chloride-containing environments. It shows the following features and properties:


  • Very good mechanical properties
  • Excellent resistance to fatigue and corrosion fatigue
  • Excellent general corrosion resistance
  • High resistance to erosion and abrasion in flowing systems
  • Good machinability and weldability
  • Related Standards

    Equivalent Materials

    This material data has been provided by Matmatch.

    "Typical" values were obtained via a literature search. "Predicted" values were imputed via artificial intelligence technology. While we have placed significant efforts in ensuring data accuracy, "typical" and "predicted" data should be considered indicative and verified by appropriate material testing. Please do contact us if additional information on the the predicted data method is required.
    All metrics apply to room temperature unless otherwise stated. SI units used unless otherwise stated.
    Equivalent standards are similar to one or more standards provided by the supplier. Some equivalent standards may be stricter whereas others may be outside the bounds of the original standard.
