one more point to add.

Check welding consumable manufacturer's supplying ER 310Mo with Manganese on higher range

In addition to cn Sridhar sir's recommendation following points to be considered.

ER310Mo produces a Nil Delta Ferrite weld since it is used at High Temperatures and prone to Hot Cracking.

Please share the photograph of the crack with location to determine the type of crack such as Hot cracking, IGC (intergranular corrosion) etc..

Solidification cracking (hot cracking) is also known as centerline cracking as it occurs in the weld centerline. Can be prevented by below methods.

1. Normally in Austenitic stainless steel a Delta ferrite content of 3-8% is recommended to prevent Hot cracking but ER310Mo is a Nil deltaferrite weld and prone to Hot cracking.
2. Reducing the impurity contents in the electrode such as sulphur and phosporous to a very low level.
3. Restricting the Interpass temperature to a maximum of 100degC as it will enhance fast cooling and reduce the time spent between the liquidus and solidus curve during the final stages of solidication.
4. The same effect is attained by restricting  the Heat Input to a reasonable level.
5. By maintaining proper weld bead width to depth ratio, Normally a ratio of 1:1 is recommended and maximum recommended is 2:1 and beyond which Hot cracking will occur.



Please share a photograph of the crack to understand its nature.


Thanks & Regards

Dear Mr. Praveen, 

Try with following guidelines if possible.

1.Control heat input (1 to 1.5 kJ/mm) and interpass temperature (100–150°C).

2.Consider using ER309L or ER310L filler metals instead of ER310.

3. Use TIG or pulsed MIG welding with proper technique.

4. Ensure clean base metal and proper joint design to reduce restraint.

5. Use Stringer beads over weaving to reduce heat input and distortion.

6. If cracking persists, use nickel-based fillers (Inconel 600, 625) for high-temperature service.


Hope above info. will help to get defect free welds.


C Sridhar.

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...

Re: [MW:10788] ON PLOT PIPING & OFF PLOT PIPING

By Materials & Welding
Piping systems involved for the flow lines and gathering lines from the well head isolation valve to the production facility or processing plant isolation valve are determined as OFF PLOT. ON PLOT defines piping system in the processing plant and production platform. ANSI/ASME B31.4 applies for off plot piping system. B31.4 allows the use of either API 1104 or ASME section IX (as appropriate). However, occasionally, a very small system such as piping within 500 feet of a processing plant (some client also said 400 feet) may be declared B31.3 rather than B31.4. When B31.3 is invoked, only ASME Section IX is used. before you decide which code to use for welding procedure and/or welder qualification for pipe welding, you have to know the design and construction code applicable to the system. Please read far enough into scope and diagram illustrating the application of either B31.3 and B31.4 hope this helps rgds 2011/4/21 pradip kumar sil < pradipsil@gmail.com > Dear all, ...
