Home > News > Difficulty Of Welding Stainless Steel
<1> The stainless steel material has strong thermal sensitivity, and the residence time is slightly longer in the temperature range of 450--850 °C, and the corrosion resistance of the weld and the heat-affected zone is seriously reduced.
<2> Thermal cracks are prone to occur.
<3> Poor protection and serious high temperature oxidation.
<4> The linear expansion coefficient is large, resulting in large welding deformation.
2. Why should effective technological measures be taken for welding austenitic stainless steel?
Answer: The general process measures are:
<1> Welding materials should be strictly selected according to the chemical composition of the base metal.
<2> Small current., fast welding; small line energy, reduce heat input.
<3> Thin-diameter welding wire, electrode, no swing, multi-layer multi-pass welding.
<4> Forced cooling of the weld and heat affected zone to reduce the residence time at 450-850°C.
<5> Argon gas protection on the back of TIG weld.
<6> The welds in contact with the corrosive medium are welded last.
<7> Passivation treatment of welds and heat-affected zone.
