Hi
I am operating in a wet / frozen food environment. I have a shaft application where 316L stainless steel is overstressed.
Some web research has turned up EN 1.4462/ASTM S32205/ASTM 31803/ASTM32203/2205 duplex stainless as a potential candidate.
It is hinted at that this duplex grade is more corrosion resistant than 316L and is used in food applications. Can anyone point me in the direction where some form of food approval for this material is available and also definitive corrosion results. Has anybody used this grade in a similar application.
