A Duplex 2205 elbow is a fitting that changes the direction of a pipe run, made from Duplex 2205 to ASTM A815 WPS31803 / WPS32205 (buttweld) · ASTM A182 F51 / F60 (forged). Elbows come in 45°, 90° and 180° (return) angles. Long-radius (1.5D) is the default for flow; short-radius (1D) saves space. Buttweld elbows follow ASME B16.9; socket-weld and threaded elbows follow ASME B16.11.

Duplex 2205 Elbow — questions buyers ask
Long radius or short radius elbow?
Long radius gives lower pressure drop and is the default. Short radius is used where space is tight, with a small pressure-rating reduction per ASME B16.9.
Which standard covers Duplex 2205 elbows?
The material is ASTM A815 WPS31803 / WPS32205 (buttweld) · ASTM A182 F51 / F60 (forged); dimensions follow ASME B16.9 · B16.28 · B16.11. Always state both on your purchase order, with the edition if your project specifies one.
What decides the price of a Duplex 2205 elbow?
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 elbows 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 mill certificates as standard, 3.2 with third-party inspection on request, plus dimensional and PMI reports.
