Re: [MW:32736] Requalification of consumable after shelf life

Normally we do not use welding consumables beyond the Shelf life as recommended by welding consumable manufacturer. I have physically seen Flux coating peeling off from the electrode. It is better to contact the welding consumable manufacturer and if they recommend better to do consumable testing as per ASME Sec.IIC at the manufacturer's premises.

Thanks & Regards

Dear,

This is not possible and there is no direction on ASME section IX as it is solely part of the manufacturer, once shelf life finishes you can further use those electrodes.

Dear all,

Can we requalify  welding consumables (electrode and wires) once the shelf life is over.

As ASME code gives any guideline to requalify  the welding consumables.

Kindly provide your expert opinion on this.
