Re: [MW:34540] Transverse Crack on Parent Metal (SS201)

By Materials & Welding
is this longitudinal weld ?

This may be stress corrosion crack
* stresses from plate rolling and thermal weld stresses
* corrosion as it is appear in photo ( black spots ) and may be used tools containing halides ( marking colors ) .
* annealing after welding is very effective solution for reducing the tendency of stress cracking 
* pickling did after welding ?

Dear Experts,

 

Please find the attached picture for your deep & clear interpretation. After welding I have found a few transverse cracks along the weld. What could be the reason behind this? Kindly do technical advice or prevention for my understanding.

The material spec is SS201.

Is it a Material defect or a Crack formed due to welding?

Crack induced after a few days of welding not during welding & after immediate welding.

Kindly note that the pipe was formed/developed from the plate by the cold rolling.

 

Your advice & comments will be highly appreciated.

 

Thanks,


Kind Regards,


G.Gughan

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...
