Re: Re: [MW:7216] problem SS 316 flange to pipe welding


Hi,

whenever welding plate flange with pipe you have to give clearance of
1.5 mm on flange . same OD same ID how it will go? even drive fit it
require some clearance . this is the reason the job spoiled. while
welding steel will expand u have to consider coefficient of expansion
steel too.

for good sound welding insert the pipe smoothly inside the flange and
keep 6 mm below the face of flange face and weld fillet welding and
pipe OD to Flange ID weld fillet of 8 mm. .

We are fabricating flanged connections for one of our customers

 flange dia 350  id220 and thickness is28 mm  is   joined to 220od

8thk pipe     After welding it is observed that out of 6 jobs in 4

jobs the flange has warped in two jobs it is beyond repairs to such a

extent that the face & od to be machined is beyond tolerances (od run

out is 10 mm face is out by 7 mm )

Anticipating this problem we have press  fit the components and made

the arrangements for rapid cooling but still this has happened

Now we need to manufacture 10 more flanged connection of the same

type

what precautions should be taken

The welding is done by GTAW 5mm thk fillet all over 5%thoriated 3mm

rod with filler ss 316L 2,5thk current 180Amps inside welding was

fused where as for out side welding filler was given
