Hi Sudhakar,
The rationale provided in your clients' specification on SMAW welding consumable for -1960 C impact is not correct. SMAW and GTAW consumables conforming to 308L grades will happily meet the Charpy impact requirements @ -1960 C.
308L SMAW welding electrodes are well formulated and manufactured to meet -1960 C impact. You may take look at the products of Kobelco, NC 38LT(308L) & NC 36LT(316L).
In fact, 308L welding consumables always exhibits superior impact than SS 316L at -1960 C.
Sec VIII, DIV-1, UHA -51, illustrates the various technical requirements for cryogenic -1960 C design services , including "Ferrite Requirements".
Thanks.

Subject: [MW:31877] E316L -15for Type 304L SS welding -cryogenic services
Experts
Below requirement given in one LNG project...
Welding Consumables:
1. SMAW Consumables for Type 304L Stainless Steel Impact Tested at -196°C (-320°F).
Consumable:
ASME Specification SFA 5.4 in Part C, Section II Material Specification
- AWS Classification E316L-15
Certification and Testing:
ASME Specification SFA 5.01 in Part C, Section II Material Specification
- Lot Classification - C5
- Level of testing - Schedule K
Testing Requirements for each Lot of electrode:
Each Lot of electrode shall be certified with the minimum following testing:
- Chemical analysis of weld metal to meet the requirements for classification E316L
except the maximum phosphorus shall be 0.03% and the maximum sulphur shall be
0.02%.
- Delta ferrite determination per paragraph A6.9 of SFA 5.4. The weld metal shall be
a maximum Ferrite Number of 2 FN.
- Charpy V-notch impact test shall be performed on the weld metal in accordance
with SFA 5.4, paragraph A9.3.1. The weld test assembly shall be prepared and
welded with CVN specimens removed as per paragraph A9.3.5 of SFA 5.4. Five
impact specimens shall be tested at -196°C (-320F). The lowest and highest values
obtained shall be disregarded. The three remaining values shall be equal to, or
exceed, 20 mils of lateral expansion. The energy in ft-lbs and the percent ductile
fracture areas shall be reported for information.
Question
1) what is the technical Reason behind for E316L -15 for Type 304L SS welding SMAW process -cryogenic , however for GTAW process ER308L specified for Type 304L welding.
Regards
sudhakar
