Description / Abstract:
Purpose
This specification defines the requirements for in-process
correction of foundry discontinuities by manual welding of
castings.
Application
This specification provides a means for purchasers to specify
in-process manual welding procedures and manual welder
qualification methods for correction of foundry discontinuities in
castings. This specification does not apply to correction of
casting discontinuities detected during machining or subsequent
operations, modification of a sound casting for engineering
purposes (3.3.3.a), or fabrication performed on or with
castings.
Safety - Hazardous Materials
While the materials, methods, applications, and processes
described or referenced in this specification may involve the use
of hazardous materials, this specification does not address the
hazards which may be involved in such use. It is the sole
responsibility of the user to ensure familiarity with the safe and
proper use of any hazardous materials and to take necessary
