RE: [MW:25786] Limits of E6013 in pressure vessel (sec viii div 1)

If the ultimate design strength is within 60ksi you can use it. Normally in structural welding using root and hot with 6013 and others with 7018. No code saying don't use such matters. Like don't use 6013 or should use only 7018 except particular company standard.

E7018 (basic electrode ) is recommended as it satisfies the mechanical properties than E6013 . If the joint is not going to experience any mechanical load nor and NDT you can go for it . I am not sure if code says about the electrode to be used .

Dear sir,

In fabrication of pressure vessel from 10mm thk plate, would we allow to use E6013 electrode.

Is any where given in code of sec viii div 1, about limits of E6013, or only E7018 is allow.
