Change the consumable brand, all E70XX series may not give the higher UTS
thou AWS classification (E70XX series Min 490Mpa required as per code) is same. There are prescribed consumables for API X grade like Bolher Fox series, BÖHLER FOX EV Pipe etc may give higher UTS, check with your consumable manufacturer and ask for this specific requirement, while sourcing consumable. or use higher TS grades like E9018M
