Duplex 2205 combines a near-equal ferrite and austenite microstructure, and that split is exactly what makes an ASTM A479 UNS S31803 washer outlast a standard 316 part under a bolted flange. The alloy carries roughly twenty-two percent chromium alongside molybdenum and nitrogen, a combination that pushes pitting and crevice resistance well past ordinary austenitic stainless. Yield strength sits close to double that of 316L, so the washer keeps its clamping load under vibration instead of flattening out over time. Ganpat Industrial Corporation punches, machines and passivates every UNS S31803 washer from certified duplex coil at our Mumbai facility, with heat-number traceability carried through from raw material to the finished, tested piece. Offshore platforms, desalination trains, pulp bleaching towers and subsea pipeline flanges all lean on this grade for a reason: it resists chloride attack where 304 and 316 eventually give way. Every dispatch leaves with a mill test certificate, and buyers across India, the GCC and Europe reorder from ready rack stock rather than waiting on a fresh melt.

Welding Guidelines For Duplex 2205 Washers
Filler Metal
ER2209 / E2209 matching consumable maintains duplex phase balance
Heat Input Control
Kept low and controlled to avoid excess ferrite in the weld zone
Shielding Gas
Nitrogen-enriched argon preserves austenite content at the weld
Interpass Temp
Held under 150°C between passes to limit intermetallic formation
Post-Weld Check
Ferrite scope or PMI re-check confirms phase balance after welding
UNS S31803 Washers vs 316L Stainless Steel Washers
UNS S31803 Duplex Washers
- Ferrite-austenite duplex structure
- Yield strength nearly 2x that of 316L
- Superior resistance to chloride pitting
- Strong stress corrosion cracking resistance
- Higher upfront cost, lower lifecycle cost
316L Austenitic Washers
- Fully austenitic structure
- Lower yield strength, softer at clamp load
- Prone to pitting in high-chloride water
- Vulnerable to stress corrosion above 60°C
- Lower unit price, more frequent replacement

ASTM A479 UNS S31803 Washers – Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between UNS S31803 and UNS S32205?
S32205 is a nitrogen-enhanced version of the same duplex family with a tighter chemistry band; both share Werkstoff Nr. 1.4462 and are supplied interchangeably as Duplex 2205.
Are these washers suitable for offshore flanges?
Yes. UNS S31803 is NORSOK and NACE MR0175 compliant, making it a standard choice for offshore platform and subsea bolted joints.
What washer types are available in this grade?
Flat, spring, lock, star, square, spherical, sealing and fender washers are all supplied as standard from ready stock.
Do the washers come with a mill test certificate?
Yes, every dispatch includes an EN 10204 3.1 certificate with full heat traceability; 3.2 is available on request via third-party agency.
Is UNS S31803 magnetic?
Duplex steel is mildly magnetic due to its ferrite content, unlike fully austenitic 316 which is non-magnetic in the annealed condition.
What sizes are kept in ready stock?
M6 to M36 flat and spring washers are typically in rack stock; larger sizes up to M64 are produced against a confirmed order.
