Description / Abstract:
Form
This specification covers a low-alloy steel in the form of
welding wire.
Application
This wire has been used typically as filler metal for
gas-metal-arc or gas-tungsten-arc welding of critical weldments of
lowalloy steels requiring a weld joint capable of being heat
treated to a strength approximating that of the parent metal, but
usage is not limited to such applications.
Classification
Wire supplied to this specification is classified as
follows:
Type 1 - Bare
Type 2 - Copper Coated
Type 1 shall be supplied unless Type 2 is specified.
