Materials & Welding

Dear Saleem, When planning to perform a Procedure Qualification Record (PQR) and develop a Welding Procedure Specification (WPS) using the E11018M electrode, it's essential to select an appropriate base material. The E11018M electrode is a low-hydrogen, iron-powder type electrode that is designed for welding high-strength steels. Characteristics of E11018M: Classification : The "E" denotes an electrode, "110" indicates a tensile strength of approximately 110 ksi (110,000 psi), "18" specifies that it is a low-hydrogen electrode with iron powder, and "M" signifies it is designed for military or high-strength applications. Applications : This electrode is commonly used for welding high-strength, low-alloy steels in applications that require high mechanical properties such as military and aerospace components, as well as in heavy equipment, pressure vessels, and structural applications. Suggested Base Materials: For the E11018M electrode, you sho...

Dear Saleem, To determine whether you can use carbon steel (CS) material for welder qualification when you have a stainless steel (SS) Welding Procedure Specification (WPS) that is for P-8 to P-8 materials, we need to consider the relevant codes and standards governing welder qualification. WPS and P-Number Groups : The Welding Procedure Specification (WPS) you have is for welding P-8 to P-8 materials. In the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (BPVC) Section IX, P-Numbers are used to group materials for welding qualification. P-8 refers to a group of austenitic stainless steels. Welder Performance Qualification : According to ASME Section IX, a welder's qualification is typically done to demonstrate their ability to produce sound welds. The welder qualification test should be performed using the same material group (P-Number) as the WPS. This ensures that the welder is proficient in welding the specific materials and processes described in the WPS. Using Different Materials for Q...

Dear Saleem, As per the AWS D1.1/D1.1M:2020 Structural Welding Code – Steel, the qualification range for a welder who qualifies on a 6" diameter pipe with a wall thickness of 10.97 mm using the specified electrodes (E6010 for root and hot pass, and E7018 for the fill and cap passes) would be as follows: Diameter Qualification Range When a welder qualifies on a pipe with a diameter of 6 inches, they are qualified to weld pipe diameters ranging from 2-7/8 inches (73 mm) and larger. Thickness Qualification Range If the test coupon has a thickness of 10.97 mm (approximately 7/16 inches), the welder would be qualified to weld material thicknesses ranging from 3/16 inches (5 mm) to 2 times the thickness of the test coupon. This results in a qualification range of 3/16 inches to 21.94 mm (approximately 7/8 inches). Summary Diameter Range: 2-7/8 inches (73 mm) and larger. Thickness Range: 3/16 inches (5 mm) to 7/8 inches (21.94 mm). These ranges are determined based on the requirements ...

Hi, I have  a WPS for 6Mo with BM range 12.04 mm wall thickness max. Now i have a situation to weld a 2" weldolet on a 6" run pipe. Now weldolet groove thickness is measured to be 13.9 mm on the hub side. However the theoretical thickness is 11.905 mm. Can I weld this using the same WPS??

Dear Yasoob, The statement appears to relate to a quality control or inspection procedure. Here's a more precise interpretation of the process: First Test: If one item fails out of a sample with a 10% failure rate, a secondary check (referred to as "Trecer" which might be a typo or specific jargon, possibly meant to be "Tracer") is performed with two additional items. Second Test: If either of the two additional items also fails, it indicates a problem, and the entire batch (or "full lot") must be inspected. Here's a refined version of the process: Initial Inspection: If 10% of the items in the sample fail the initial inspection, perform a secondary inspection with two additional items. Secondary Inspection: If one or both of the two additional items fail this inspection, conduct a full inspection of the entire lot. This process ensures that if an initial small sample indicates a potential quality issue, further scrutiny is applied to confirm the p...
