Re: Re: [MW:29165] RE: 28982] Backing gas as per API RP 582

Dear All:

Below you can find a screen shot from SLV Duisburg publication:

"Guidelines on the Welded Fabrication of Stainless Steels"

SLV publications are among the most reliable references in welding engineering 

and here, it clearly states that in single side welding of SS, the other side must either be protected or the oxide layer be removed.

You can check the attchments, but anyhow when it comes to thinner membrane regardless of whatever the consequences might be the case for oxidation which is non occurrence when we simply imagine for fillet welds but anyhow socket welds aren't with this case of lap to lap fillets, hence a detailed study of amendment to be incorporate with through and through case studies and failure analysis stipulating clauses shall be ensured in international standards.

Anyhow now the case as per the research is chromium depletion (causing heat tints / discoloration) for thinner membranes especially for fillets, So to be conclude that there should be some detailed studies as per AWS D18.2 / NORSOK STANDARD M-601 especially for fillet welds.

At any cost don't accept the requirement unless owner is providing his clause which is already stipulated in owner's manual or international standards, the research i have ensured is from my previous owner requriement which i did not agree and the international standards which i have quoted is for open root / butt welds.

Thanks.

To be specific, as you know purging purpose in SS is mainly for shield against oxidation which took place when molten metal kiss the oxygen from atmosphere. Now when you welding a fillet weld the amount of oxidation is corresponding to the amount of heat supplied vs. encounter of molten weld metal to the atmosphere without shielding. 

A fillet weld having a configuration without any gap and zero flow of molten metal to the back side will defiantly not require any purging. Its recommended to use a optimized low heat input. I advise you although to put gas backing upto 2 mm thickness as the low heat dissipation in SS can melt through thickness during welding.

Thanks & regards

Thanks for the reply, Is back purging is required when we do fillet welding on a thin (2mm to 5mm) SS base material, for example some cleat welding or pad welding or socket welding with GTAW or SMAW process.

Expecting a reply.

Thanks,

Manoj

Dear Mr. Goswami,

In 2016 editions of API RP 582 the purging gas requirement given in subcluases (a) (b) (c) but in previous editions purging requirement given in clause

Manoj,

 

SMAW never requires back purging. It's the "slag" generated by the process, which protects the weld root. This is just back to basic scenario.

Thanks.

Dear Experts,

 

As per clause 7.3 of API RP 582 Ed. 2016 back purging required for GTAW & GMAW process but no where I could found for other process like SMAW.  Is it mean that if we do welding with SMAW process back purging is not required?

 

Please share your interpretation.

 

Thanks and regards

 

Manoj.
