Re: [MW:28360] RE: 28355] Water Vapor in welded joints

Dear sir,  My work shop is in Kerala, India.  The interesting thing is that the vapours are seen even in afternoon (Humidity may be >65%). After the weld got cooled, the surface of the joint is like somebody poured water on the joint. This is visible in SS only.This water vapours are not making any issue in Weld joint.  I will share the photos latter.  Is it related to heat conductivity of SS? Is it related to flux as commented by a member of this group ? if so which component/metal contained in flux?  Thank you all for the replay.  Regards,  Hareesh K V On Fri, Sep 28, 2018, 7:59 PM PGoswami < pgoswami@quickclic.net > wrote: Hi, This is a case of moisture condensation.

Re: [MW:28360] RE: 28355] Water Vapor in welded joints

Hi I also experienced the same but my observation is perticularly in night shift where welders are not particular about removing and cleaning the slag from welded joint and remains till morning Such practices causing moisture accumulation in the visinity of such jt Therefore We had made mandatory to clean the weld joint free of slag Which has given us good results Regards Hegde Sent from Yahoo Mail on Android On Fri, 28 Sep 2018 at 19:59, PGoswami <pgoswami@quickclic.net> wrote: Hi, This is a case of moisture condensation.

Re: [MW:28356] Reg:SS to MS support welding

You can use MS cleats buttered with E 309 electrode for minimum of 3 layers. This helps to avoid contamination and carbon pick up on SS plate. On MS plate, there will not be any issue.

Re: [MW:28356] Water Vapour in welded joints

Pl. check. There can not be water vapour after welding. You can see side wetting (on either end of bead toes) and it is normal in SS welding due to certain chemical used in flux coating. It gets dried on its own. C Sridhar. --------------------- On Friday, 28 September, 2018, 11:18:32 AM IST, Hareesh K V <hareesh13h@gmail.com> wrote: This message is eligible for Automatic Cleanup!

[MW:28350] Re qualification as per AWS D1.1

Dear All, I have to re-qualify the welders as per AWS D1.1 but I have some quires. Please help me to resolve the same. 1) What should be the test piece thickness for re qualification ? Our previous thickness was 25 mm. ( As AWS shows option of 10 mm thk test plate which will qualify any production welding thickness ) 2) Do I need to go for mechanical testing or only radiography is sufficient? 3) What will be the qualification range after successful qualification?
