| dear all according to API 582 CLAUSE 7.3 see the following "Back purging is required for the GTAW and GMAW processes for welding materials having a nominal chromium content greater than 2l/4% unless the joint is ground or back gouged to sound metal." the cause is "back purging gas is selected to prevent oxidation or scale formation on the underside of the weld"
