    ASTM A1082/A1082M Grade S32760 | Zeron 100 Super Duplex Steel

    Highly-alloyed super duplex steel for exceptional performance in aggressive chloride media

    Grade S32760 (UNS S32760) is a premium super duplex stainless steel, widely known as Zeron 100, featuring a complex alloy composition of 25% chromium, 7% nickel, and 3.5% molybdenum with additions of tungsten and copper. Designated as ASTM A1082/A1082M F55, this grade is engineered to deliver exceptional resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion in warm seawater and aggressive acidic chloride environments, providing a PREN value exceeding 40. S32760 combines high mechanical strength and excellent impact toughness with superior resistance to stress corrosion cracking (SCC), making it the material of choice for offshore oil and gas production, chemical processing, flue gas desulfurization (FGD) systems, and subsea pipelines. Its unique tungsten addition enhances localized corrosion resistance, ensuring long-term structural integrity in the most demanding industrial and marine applications.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is Zeron 100 (S32760)?

    Zeron 100 (S32760) is a stainless steel grade covered under ASTM A1082/A1082M for high-strength bolting in special-purpose applications such as pressure vessels. UNS designation S32760. Available as bolts, studs, screws and nuts manufactured by TorqBolt for global oil/gas/nuclear/power/marine sectors.

    What are the mechanical properties of Zeron 100 (S32760) per ASTM A1082?

    Mechanical property requirements for S32760 are defined in ASTM A1082 Table 2 (PH grade solution treatment) or Table 4 (duplex annealed condition). Properties vary by treatment condition - refer to the bolting specification for the H-condition (PH) or annealed yield/tensile/elongation/hardness requirements applicable to your order.

    Is Zeron 100 (S32760) suitable for sour service (NACE MR0175)?

    Refer to NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156 Tables A.16-A.19. Most A1082 duplex grades are permitted at ≤28 HRC; PH grades require condition-specific qualification (typically H1150 for 17-4 PH at 28 HRC). TorqBolt supplies sour-service certified product on request with full PMI + hardness traceability.

    What ASME / ISO dimensional standards can Zeron 100 (S32760) be supplied to?

    This grade is available across the full ASME and ISO bolting dimensional standards covered on this site - ASME B18.2.1 (hex bolts, hex cap screws, lag screws), B18.2.2 (hex nuts, square nuts, lock nuts), B18.3 (socket head cap screws), B18.31.2 (clamping studs), B16.5 (flange stud bolts), ISO 4032 / 4033 / 4035 (metric nuts), and metric B18.2.3.xM / B18.2.4.xM series.
