AWS A5. 29/A5. 29M-2010, Specification for Low-Alloy Steel Electrodes for Flux Cored Arc Welding


Book Description

This specification prescribes the requirements for classificaiton of low-alloy steel electrodes for flux cored arc welding. The requirements include chemcial composition and mechanical properties of the weld metal and certain usability characteristics. Optional, supplemental designators are also included for improved toughness and diffusible hydrogen. Additional requirements are included for standard sizes, marking, manufacturing, and packaging. A guide is appened to the specification as a source of information concerning the classification system employed and the intended use of low-alloy steel flux cored electrodes.













Specification for Carbon and Low-alloy Steel Flux Cored Electrodes for Flux Cored Arc Welding and Metal Cored Electrodes for Gas Metal Arc Welding


Book Description

This specification prescribes requirements for the classification of carbon and low-alloy steel flux cored electrodes for flux cored arc welding (FCAW), either with or without shielding gas, and carbon and low-alloy steel metal cored electrodes for gas metal arc welding (GMAW). Carbon and low-alloy flux cored electrodes had previously been classified solely under AWS A5.20/A5.20M, Specification for Carbon Steel Electrodes for Flux Cored Arc Welding, or AWS A5.29/A5.29M, Specification for Low-Alloy Steel Electrodes for Flux Cored Arc Welding. Carbon and low-alloy steel metal cored electrodes have previously been classified solely under AWS A5.18/A5.18M, Specification for Carbon Steel Electrodes and Rods for Gas Shielded Arc Welding, or AWS A5.28/A5.28M, Specification for Low-Alloy Steel Electrodes and Rods for Gas Shielded Arc Welding. Iron is the only element of the undiluted weld metal deposited by the electrodes classified under this specification whose content exceeds 10.5%.
