RE: [MW:34082] E 7018 and E 8010-B2 IN SAME BAKING OVEN

By Materials & Welding

Hello Aneesh,

 

Technically the baking/reconditioning temperature of E-7018 & E-8018-B2 consumables are very close or may be the same. However, under shopfloor conditions  even if the consumable is segregated well in the same oven there's every possibility of Consumable Mix Up within the same oven or welders picking up the wrong consumable unknowingly.

 

Hence to be on the safe side, it's preferred to have separate holding ovens for E-7018 & E-8018B-2 type welding consumables as recommended by Aramco Specifications.

 

Thanks

Hi Folks,

 

Could any experts clarify regarding the subject matter, if it is allowed to keep both E7018 and E 8018-B2 electrodes in the same Baking/ Holding oven for conditioning purposes.

As required by Saudi Aramco Standard SAES-A-206. section 7.7.1, """"Electrodes shall be properly stored and segregated in the store, shop, or ovens to avoid mix-up. Separate ovens are required for different welding consumable types.""""

 

Please clarify if E7018 and E8018-B2 are to be considered as different type of electrodes from 

Baking point of view 

 


 

Thanks and Regards

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

By Materials & Welding
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

By Materials & Welding
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...
