Re: [MW:23753] Cellulosic Electrode Usage Instead of Basic Electrode

Demir
          7018 is having more deposition efficiency compared to 7016 because iron powders are added in 7018.   one advantage in 7016 is very light slag and bead is very smooth not like 7015.   Exx15,16 and 18  all are low hydrogen electrodes only. Coating materials are different. It is not advisable to bake Cellulose electrodes,  Purpose of more hydrogen in cellulose is defeated

Just to state what may be obvious: you do not bake cellulosic electrodes, which would destroy their properties. It is only the basic coated electrodes which you bake, to drive off combined water in order to ensure the low hydrogen content of the weld deposit. This is not necessary if you are using basic electrodes straight from a vacuum pack – which is special packaging and not the normal sealed packets. Always check the manufacturer's data sheets and recommendations, since how you handle different types of electrodes can be confusing.

Dear all ;

 

First of all thank You so much for Your most valuable replies ,Mr Gnanapandithan and Mr Rovinden and Mr Govindan.

 

Then please let me raise another question regarding our subject taking into account 7016 electrodes what would be Your commentary?

 

From the point of hydrogen content ,Exxx6 series are low hydrogen content electrodes besides low hydrogen its said deposition rates are higher than Exxx8 electrodes thus maybe it's better to advise Exxx6 electrodes instead of cellulosic electrodes?

 

Thanks again for your valuable thoughts and replies;

 

Best Regards;

 

Demir

Dear all,

From production point of view, electrodes with  higher deposition rates are being considered. But when it comes to quality, hydrogen induced cracking to be considered, hence basic coated electrodes  are the best.

Still cellulose electrodes r being considered, have a control on preheat temp on pipe, if req as per code and baking of electrodes, to reduce the possibility of hydrogen.

Note: hydrogen in excess of 4ml / kg is prone to hydrogen induced cracking.

Regards,
Ram

Dear Sir;

I know i can't change 7018 to 7010 depending on same PQR thus i am also making preparation for a new PQR. So please take my question as application will be done on new PQR. Additonally i shall say their intention to use cellulosic electrodes on large pipes (i.e 96'').Your comments are appreciated.

 

Best Regards;

Hi

You can not replace the electrode, since SFA number, UTS & alloying element presence to meet the weld metal properties  and WPS (approved) for pipe welding.

  • Dear Sirs;

I would like to get Your professional advisory regarding selection of the filler material in Piping Welding of the P:1 G:1 Pipe Materials.

For a large variety of Thickness and Diameters i have written 3 different WPS by combination of GTAW + SMAW process with usage of ER 70S-6 (Root and Hot Passes using GTAW) and E7018 (for Fill passes and Cap using  SMAW process.)

However Our construction dept , insists on usage of Cellulosic electrodes instead of basic electrodes for higher deposition rate.

As QA/QC I am doubtful replacing 7018 with 7010 or any other cellulosic electrode because of their tendency for hydrogen induced cracking. I'd like to add in my previous project We used to have X70 pipes and our employer didn't allow us to use cellulosic elecrodes just because hydrogen induced cracking.

Thus I would like  to get your professional opinion regarding this subject,

 Best Regards; 

Demir

Heat tint (temper) colours on stainless steel surfaces heated in air // Heat tint

Introduction The colour formed when stainless steel is heated, either in a furnace application or in the heat affected zone of welds, is dependent on several factors that are related to the oxidation resistance of the steel. The heat tint or temper colour formed is caused by the progressive thickening of the surface oxide layer and so, as temperature is increased, the colours change.   Oxidation resistance of stainless steels However, there are several factors that affect the degree of colour change and so there is no a single table of colour and temperature that represents all cases. The colours formed can only be used as an indication of the temperature to which the steel has been heated. Factors affecting the heat tint colours formed Steel composition The chromium content is the most important single factor affecting oxidation resistance. The higher the chromium, the more heat resistant the steel and so the development of the heat tint colou...

Re: [MW:10788] ON PLOT PIPING & OFF PLOT PIPING

Piping systems involved for the flow lines and gathering lines from the well head isolation valve to the production facility or processing plant isolation valve are determined as OFF PLOT. ON PLOT defines piping system in the processing plant and production platform. ANSI/ASME B31.4 applies for off plot piping system. B31.4 allows the use of either API 1104 or ASME section IX (as appropriate). However, occasionally, a very small system such as piping within 500 feet of a processing plant (some client also said 400 feet) may be declared B31.3 rather than B31.4. When B31.3 is invoked, only ASME Section IX is used. before you decide which code to use for welding procedure and/or welder qualification for pipe welding, you have to know the design and construction code applicable to the system. Please read far enough into scope and diagram illustrating the application of either B31.3 and B31.4 hope this helps rgds 2011/4/21 pradip kumar sil < pradipsil@gmail.com > Dear all, ...
