Re: [MW:33268] SA-516 Gr 70

In addition , pl check whether it is subjected to PWHT, if so, basically 15mps will be lost due to SR, in that select 7018-1

Dear Kishore , 
consuamble selction is mainly depends on  Base metal  tensile properties , Specification and service requirements(Hardness and impact requiremnts). other facrtor also to be taken into considered in case if you wan to fo with different welding processes ,in your  case it is already SMAW process  and  base metrial is  SA 516 Gr 70 means minimum specified tensile strength is 70000psi /485 Mpa. while selecting consumable you need to consider the minimum specified stregth of the base metal not acutal tensilet stregth  specified in MTC , so the recommended  electode for this purpose is E7018 which satisfys the base mental strength requirement for impact requirements to be confirmed by manufaturer based on your project requiremnts, over matching consuambes are not required in this regard as many of the applications E7018/E7018-1 will suffice the requirement of cleints .

in some applications if your project impact reuirements are at below -46deg C you may need to choose E8018/E8018-C3 elctrodes.


Thanks & Regards,

u have to match minimum tensile strength. in ur case, 516 gr 70 means minimum tensile is 70000psi or 485 Mpa. To match this, u can very well use 7018 which is 70000 psi or 485 Mpa. U are not supposed to match with actual tested value because it will vary.

Dear sir 

what are the step to find an electrode for SA516 gr 70 in the internet they have mentioned E7018 but as per the SAIL TEST CERTIFICATE tensile strength is 79ksi so what electrode do I have to use

Re: [MW:34105] SA266 GR4N 4 Cycle SPWHT

Hi,  You are correct, Minimum refers to the one cycle for which this part will expose until final work shop PWHT. hence mill test certificate shall include this.  Max. SPWHT, refers to additional cycles of heat treatment that are reserved for future repairs during equipment lifetime.  Again, these simulated no. Of cycles shall be specified in MTC.  The idea is we need to make sure that steel mechanical properties are not compromised upon exposure to multiple repairs (i e 4 cycles in your case).  One could say, if steel is subjected to 4 cycles and is ok, then it should by defacto be good for one cycle, yet, this is wrong assumption cause mechanical problems and microstructure of materials varies accordingly based on no. Of cycles for which material will expose. This is apparent in alloy steel and especially for impact test values as an example.  In your case, this forged CS with properties before PWHT can be understood to be " as forged" condition (i.e. Wit...

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...
