[MW:1306] RE: 1305] welding reqd on a weldolet

there is always heated debate on this between me and the vendors. in my opinion what ever is the bevel provided has to be completely filled since it compensates the area of opening (also called as crotch).

also olet manufacturer (since they are the designers) should give these recommendations. you may check the burst test performed on these olets by mfrs, the minimum weld should be the one they welded during burst test.
