Re: [MW:5669] FCAW Process for welding of tanks

Hi,
 
Be care ful when doing FCAW. Porosity and Lack of fusion is the major issue if the welder is not properly trained. It is recommended for stuctural. If you check the hardness also the weldmetal will show more than 200 BHN.

Thanks & Regards

Dear All,
 
We are planning to introduce Flux cored Arc welding for L seams and C seam welding of Tanks.  The Tank dia is 12m and material is ASTM A 515 Gr. 60.  We are planning to use E 71T1 flux cored wires.  FCAW was never used for welding my cleint jobs.  So he is asking history on usage FCAW wires for Tanks, repair percentage, bead apperance and any other adavantages.  If  you have FCAW wire please send me the above details and also photos of  some weld joints also.
 
Regards
