[MW:32320] RE: 32319] Suitable filler wire for UNS S13800/ ASTM-A 705 Gr XM-13 PH 13-8 Material

Hi Prem,

These alloys are really special type of alloys. Precipitation hardenable hence all alloys have to be aged after welding . Different aging temperatures are applicable according to the specifications and required properties. I've highlighted the nominal mechanical properties in SA-564 ,extract as attached.

Typically, E 630 electrodes/filler metals are used for welding 17/4ph stainless steel. This grade is most commonly used PH stainless steels , in valves and other components.

If matching Turballoy 13-8 welding consumable is not available by any means, 17/4 ph or E/ER 630 electrode/filler metal would be the way to go.

If E630 does not meet the criteria, consumables for Precipitation hardenable Nickel Based alloys would be the only available option.

Regards.

Subject: [MW:32319] Suitable filler wire for UNS S13800/ ASTM-A 705 Gr XM-13 PH 13-8 Material

Dear All

We need expert advice on best suitable filler wire and Welding process for following base material -

Base Material : AISI/ UNS S13800/ ASTM-A693/ A 705 Gr XM-13 PH 13-8

Chemical Requirements of base material:

Carbon 0.05

Manganese 0.2

Phosphorus 0.01

Sulfur 0.008

Silicon 0.1

Chromium 12.25 to 13.25

Nickel 7.5 to 8.5

Aluminum 0.9 to 1.35

Molybdenum 2 to 2.5

Base material thickness 8 to 16mm thk..

1) Welding Process : TIG or SMAW

2) Joint geometry : Butt Weld (Full penetration joint)

3) Age hardening to be done after welding

4) After age hardening UTS shall be 1520 Mpa min, YS = 1420 MPa, El= 10%.

5) After age hardening hardness required 45 HRC minimum

We have selected one TIG filler wire Turballoy 13-8 Mo which matches the chemical composition of our base material and has same UNS Number. The manufacturer is United States Welding Corporation but not available in India..

We have past experience of 15-5 PH stainless steel welded with ER 630 Filler wire but UTS achieved after age hardening is 1100 MPa.

Also some reputed consumable manufacturers have suggested ER 630 filler wire but cannot guarantee strength and hardness after age hardening.

We would like to know the suitable filler wire / electrode and best process to weld this material - TIG / SMAW.

Regards

Prem Nautiyal

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...

The Schaeffler and Delong diagrams for predicting ferrite levels in austenitic stainless steel welds

Introduction Ferrite is important in avoiding hot cracking in during cooling from welding of austenitic stainless steels. 'Constitution diagrams' are used to predict ferrite levels from the composition by comparing the effects of austenite and ferrite stabilising elements. The Schaeffler and Delong diagrams are the original methods of predicting the phase balances in austenitic stainless steel welds. Nickel and chromium equivalents A 'nickel equivalent' is calculated for the austenite stabilising elements and a 'chromium equivalent' ferrite stabilising elements. These are used as the axes for the diagrams, which show the compositional equivalent areas where the phases austenite, ferrite, martensite (and mixtures of these) should be present. Although intended to show the phase balance of weld fillers, these diagrams can also be used to illustrate the phase balance of the 'parent' material. There are different diagrams for dif...
