Re: [MW:35868] 347H material weldability

By Materials & Welding
used in high temp superheater coils. No welding issues. may not get matching wire like ER 347H,E347H, instead u can use 347

Hi Zakaria,
Hope it is piping material and generally we use GTAW + SMAW welding processes to weld such stabilized grade material.

For SS347H material, the recommended welding consumables are AWS ER347 for Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW) and AWS E347 for Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW).

Please check your customer's specifications for PWHT and other requirements. Being stabilized grade PWHT is recommended at 900 deg. cent. temperature for 4 hours.

Thanks,
Best Regards,

Hi experts,

I'm need information about 347H material weldability ( welding process, rod/electrode, temperature control, pwht, impact test?!, ....)
Could you help me with references please.


Thank you very much.





Thanks and Regards,

  Interpretation #: BPV IX-18-34
 Record Number: 18-771
 Subject Description: SC IX; QW-401.1 and QW-403.6 - Thickness Range Qualified for Impact Testing Standard Designation: BPV Section IX Par/Fig/Table: QW-401.1 and QW-403.6 Edition/ Addenda: 2017 

Background:
 A welding procedure qualification was performed on a 40 mm thick test coupon in 1G position by GTAW (10 mm) and SMAW (30 mm). Tension and bend tests were performed on the 40 mm plate. 

A second welding procedure qualification was performed on a 6 mm plate in 3G position by GTAW and only impact testing was performed. A third welding procedure qualification was performed on a 6 mm plate in 3G position by SMAW and only impact testing was performed. All of the essential variables remained the same except for the coupon thickness. 
Question: 
May the PQRs listed above, support a WPS (GTAW+SMAW) for material requiring notch toughness with a qualified base material thickness range of 5 mm to 200 mm, GTAW weld metal thickness range 20 mm max. and SMAW weld metal thickness range up to 200 mm max.? 

Reply: Yes.   

 My queries .   Is it in order

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...

The Schaeffler and Delong diagrams for predicting ferrite levels in austenitic stainless steel welds

By Materials & Welding
Introduction Ferrite is important in avoiding hot cracking in during cooling from welding of austenitic stainless steels. 'Constitution diagrams' are used to predict ferrite levels from the composition by comparing the effects of austenite and ferrite stabilising elements. The Schaeffler and Delong diagrams are the original methods of predicting the phase balances in austenitic stainless steel welds. Nickel and chromium equivalents A 'nickel equivalent' is calculated for the austenite stabilising elements and a 'chromium equivalent' ferrite stabilising elements. These are used as the axes for the diagrams, which show the compositional equivalent areas where the phases austenite, ferrite, martensite (and mixtures of these) should be present. Although intended to show the phase balance of weld fillers, these diagrams can also be used to illustrate the phase balance of the 'parent' material. There are different diagrams for dif...
