Marine & Shipbuilding Solutions

Duplex and super-duplex for seawater and offshore applications.

Overview

Marine and offshore applications expose flanges to seawater, high salinity, and corrosive salt-spray environments. Duplex and super-duplex stainless steels provide unmatched corrosion resistance for subsea, deck, and hull-mounted equipment. DNV, ABS, and Lloyd certification ensures regulatory compliance for vessel classification.

Applications

Seawater cooling system manifolds

Ballast and bilge pump connections

Engine and turbine inlet/outlet flanges

Fuel and lube oil system nozzles

Cargo line deck connections

Subsea pipeline field joints

Riser and jump-over connections

Relevant Standards

  • DNV-GL Rules for Classification
  • ABS Rules for Building and Classing Ships
  • Lloyd's Register Standards
  • ASME B16.5 (industrial backup)
  • ISO 5873 (marine variants)

Typical Service Specifications

Marine flanges operate at 150-600 PSI with seawater and temperatures from -20°F (arctic service) to 250°F (hot well service). DNV/ABS certification requires third-party testing and traceability. Duplex minimum PREN (Pitting Resistance Equivalent Number) typically 35+.
