A Duplex 2205 bend is a pipe bend with a larger radius than a standard elbow, made from Duplex 2205 to ASTM A815 WPS31803 / WPS32205. Bends of 3D, 5D and larger radius give smoother flow than elbows and suit slurry, pigging and pipeline service. They are induction- or cold-bent from pipe.

Duplex 2205 Bend: Why 2205 for bends
Bends of 3D, 5D and larger radius give smoother flow than elbows and suit slurry, pigging and pipeline service. They are induction- or cold-bent from pipe. In Duplex 2205, the choice usually comes down to the medium and temperature — the rows here are the points buyers check for this exact combination.
| Why this grade | Duplex fittings match duplex pipe in chloride service and strength. Duplex 2205 is picked for strength with chloride resistance at a stainless-steel budget. |
|---|---|
| Typical service | Oil & gas — Flowlines, manifolds and topside piping. |
| Welding to carbon steel | ER2209 or ER309L(Mo) is used when joining it to carbon steel, under a qualified WPS |
| Matching filler | ER2209 (AWS A5.9) |
| Sour service | Listed in NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156-3 within its limits — state it on the order |

Other Duplex 2205 pipe fittings
Duplex 2205 Bend — questions buyers ask
Bend or elbow — what is the difference?
An elbow has a fixed 1D or 1.5D radius to ASME B16.9; a bend is bent from pipe to a larger radius, typically 3D or 5D.
Can Duplex 2205 bends be welded to carbon steel?
Yes — ER2209 or ER309L(Mo) is used when joining it to carbon steel, under a qualified WPS.
Which standard covers Duplex 2205 bends?
The material is ASTM A815 WPS31803 / WPS32205; dimensions follow ASME B16.49 · project specs. Always state both on your purchase order, with the edition if your project specifies one.
What decides the price of a Duplex 2205 bend?
The alloy price, the size and schedule or class, quantity, and the testing and documents required. Send your list and we quote the same working day.
Can you supply Duplex 2205 bends to NACE MR0175?
Yes. Duplex 2205 is listed in NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156-3 within its limits; state NACE compliance on the order and it is confirmed on the certificate.
What documents do you supply?
EN 10204 3.1 or 3.2 certificates available on request / as specified in the PO; dimensional reports as required. PMI can be arranged depending on product and requirements, as specified in the PO.
