Kokubili i-2205 kanye ne-316 insimbi engagqwali amamaki ensimbi engagqwali ephezulu, kodwa anezakhiwo ezihlukene futhi afanele ukusetshenziswa okuhlukile. I-316 insimbi engagqwali iyinsimbi engagqwali ye-austenitic esetshenziswa kakhulu ngenxa yokumelana nokugqwala okuhle kakhulu, ikakhulukazi ezindaweni ezinezixazululo ze-chloride. Ayizweli kuma-asidi, ama-alkali namanye amakhemikhali futhi ilungele ukusetshenziswa ezindaweni zasolwandle, imishini yokwenza imithi kanye nezimboni zokucubungula ukudla. I-316 insimbi engagqwali futhi inamandla amahle okushisa aphezulu futhi iyakheka futhi iyashiseleka. 2205 insimbi engagqwali, eyaziwa nangokuthi i-duplex insimbi engagqwali, iyinhlanganisela ye-austenitic kanye ne-ferritic stainless steels. Inamandla aphezulu kanye nokumelana nokugqwala, ikakhulukazi ezindaweni ezine-chloride. I-2205 insimbi engagqwali ivame ukusetshenziswa ezimbonini ezinjengowoyela negesi, ukucubungula amakhemikhali kanye nezindawo zasolwandle lapho kudingeka ukumelana nokugqwala okuhle kakhulu namandla aphezulu. Ibuye ibe ne-solderability enhle futhi kulula ukuyakheka. Kafushane, uma udinga ukumelana nokugqwala okuhle kakhulu namandla amahle okushisa okuphezulu ezindaweni ze-chloride, insimbi engagqwali engu-316 ingaba yinketho engcono. Uma udinga insimbi engagqwali yamandla aphakeme enokumelana nokugqwala okuhle kakhulu, futhi usebenza endaweni ene-chloride ecebile, khona-ke insimbi engagqwali engu-2205 ingase ilingane kangcono.
