[MW:6124] Re: Welding of ASTM A 335Gr.P11

COMMENT BY C C GIROTRA (Weldwell Speciality Pvt Ltd,Mumbai)

The low carbon type wire and electrodes in P11 and P22 are used where
PWHT is not feasible due some problems or if the thickness of the
plate/pipe to be welded is 12mm max. Such low carbon consumables yield
lower residual strees hence if PWHT is not carried out there are no
problems in operations,Foe example for steam turbine casing in a
running power plant PWHT is not possible.So E8018B3L electrode and
Filler wire ER90SB3L wire is used.
