[MW:11576] RE: 11568] Selection of Filler metal between Cu-Ni and Monel

By Materials & Welding
Hello Carpediem,
 
Ni & Cu have unlimited  solid solution properties, that's why it's easy to formulate Monel or Cupro Nickel electrodes.In fact these electrodes are just flip sides of each other, example Monel 400- 70Ni-30 Cu, Cupro Nickel-70/30-- 70 Copper 30 Nickel.
 
The nickel-copper and copper-nickel welding products (MONEL Welding Electrodes 190 and 187, MONEL Filler Metals 60 and 67) can tolerate unlimited dilution by copper.
 
Depending on the service and the corrosive environment you have the flexibility of using either Cupro Nickel or Monel electrodes. Cupro Nickel is cheaper and have lesser mechanical properties and relative lesser corrosion resistance that Monel.
 
If the intended service is for sea-water corrosion, e.g marine or desalination environment Cupro Nickel fillers  (i.e Monel -67 or SMAW-Monel-187 ) would be the choice.
 
If the intended service is corrosive process environment or any application of NACE sour service then Monel 60 filler and matching SMAW electrode Monel -190 would be a better choice.
 
Please find the electrode selection guide of Special Metals Corp for further guidance.
 
Thanks.

Subject: [MW:11568] Selection of Filler metal between Cu-Ni and Monel

Dear Experts

 

I have to weld between Cu-Ni and Monel.

 

As I know, ERNiCu-7 is recommended for that joint.

 

How about ERCuNi ?

 

Is there any problems expected when ERCuNi were used for that joint?

 

Please advise me.

 

Best regards,

Re: [MW:34105] SA266 GR4N 4 Cycle SPWHT

By Materials & Welding
Hi,  You are correct, Minimum refers to the one cycle for which this part will expose until final work shop PWHT. hence mill test certificate shall include this.  Max. SPWHT, refers to additional cycles of heat treatment that are reserved for future repairs during equipment lifetime.  Again, these simulated no. Of cycles shall be specified in MTC.  The idea is we need to make sure that steel mechanical properties are not compromised upon exposure to multiple repairs (i e 4 cycles in your case).  One could say, if steel is subjected to 4 cycles and is ok, then it should by defacto be good for one cycle, yet, this is wrong assumption cause mechanical problems and microstructure of materials varies accordingly based on no. Of cycles for which material will expose. This is apparent in alloy steel and especially for impact test values as an example.  In your case, this forged CS with properties before PWHT can be understood to be " as forged" condition (i.e. Wit...

Heat tint (temper) colours on stainless steel surfaces heated in air // Heat tint

By Materials & Welding
Introduction The colour formed when stainless steel is heated, either in a furnace application or in the heat affected zone of welds, is dependent on several factors that are related to the oxidation resistance of the steel. The heat tint or temper colour formed is caused by the progressive thickening of the surface oxide layer and so, as temperature is increased, the colours change.   Oxidation resistance of stainless steels However, there are several factors that affect the degree of colour change and so there is no a single table of colour and temperature that represents all cases. The colours formed can only be used as an indication of the temperature to which the steel has been heated. Factors affecting the heat tint colours formed Steel composition The chromium content is the most important single factor affecting oxidation resistance. The higher the chromium, the more heat resistant the steel and so the development of the heat tint colou...
