[MW:20116] RE: 20114] Use of E7018 instead of E7018-1 - Low Temperature Pipe.

Hi Richard,

 

What is the design temperature ?   what was the impact test temperature for PQR qualification vs. the AWS classification used E 7018/E-7018-1?

 

Usually these electrodes are manufactured to meet dual certification i.e,7018/7018-1 and are tested for impact @ -45Deg C. If such electrode is used for production weld then no issues.

 

Otherwise E-7018(certified for impact @-29 Deg C) is not matching to SA 333 Gr6 (guaranteed impact -46 Deg C) base metal.

 

Thanks.

Gents,

What all are the practical issues if someone has welded low temperature A333 Gr.6 pipe with wrong electrode E7018 instead of E7018-1.

Regards

Richard
