Recommended Grades & Forms by Shipyard Use

Ship railings & deck equipment

  • Steel grades & products: 304 decorative welded pipes (OD 38–60 mm, WT 2–4 mm) · 316L channels (100×50×5 mm)
  • Why manufacturers choose us: Over 500 tons available in stock for these items. ISO 9001 certified supply management, backed by experience serving customers in 108+ countries for 10+ years.

Safety guardrails and gangways

  • Steel grades & products: 2205 duplex plates (6–12 mm)
  • Why manufacturers choose us: 2205 duplex is commonly selected when higher strength is needed—often referenced as about 2× the strength level of 304—while also providing strong resistance to stress corrosion in demanding marine conditions, making it suitable for heavy guardrails.

Seawater handling pipes and valves

  • Steel grades & products: 316L seamless pipes (OD 25–150 mm, WT 3–8 mm)
  • Why manufacturers choose us: 316L is widely used in seawater-related systems; its molybdenum content helps improve resistance to pitting corrosion in chloride-rich environments. We support order-defined inspection records and packing requirements for shipyard workflows.

Offshore platform support structures

  • Steel grades & products: 2205 duplex bars (OD 50–150 mm) · plates (10–30 mm)
  • Why manufacturers choose us: The austenitic–ferritic structure of 2205 supports performance under combined load and corrosion challenges often seen in offshore environments. As a leading manufacturer, Walmay maintains 1,000+ tons of inventory and offers flexible payment terms to meet project needs.
