Introduction
The ASME SA815 WPS32750 Equal Tee is a seamless pipe fitting manufactured from super duplex stainless steel (UNS S32750), designed for use in high-strength and highly corrosive environments. With a balanced austenitic-ferritic microstructure, S32750 provides twice the strength of conventional stainless steels and superior resistance to chloride-induced pitting, crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking.
This tee is produced according to ASME B16.9, seamless type (SMLS), with dimensions DN150 SCH10S, making it suitable for offshore, marine, petrochemical, and power generation projects.

Chloride SCC Resistance – ideal for seawater and subsea applications.
-
Cost Efficiency – can replace higher-cost nickel alloys in many projects.
-
Durability – long service life in harsh industrial conditions.
Applications
-
Offshore & Marine Systems – risers, subsea manifolds, seawater injection lines.
-
Oil & Gas Industry – process piping, separators, chemical injection systems.
-
Chemical Processing Plants – piping systems for acids and chloride-rich solutions.
-
Power Generation – boiler, condenser, and heat exchanger piping.

FAQ
Q1: Why choose S32750 instead of S32205 duplex?
A1: S32750 has higher chromium, molybdenum, and nitrogen content, providing better resistance to seawater and aggressive chloride service.
Q2: What is the benefit of seamless (SMLS) fittings?
A2: Seamless fittings have no welds, offering superior strength and reliability for high-pressure applications.
Q3: What is ASME B16.9?
A3: It is the standard covering factory-made wrought buttweld fittings, including tees, elbows, reducers, and caps.
