WELDING PROCEDURE & TECHNIQUE

STAINTRODE D TECHNICAL DATA TeroMatD6t-up Information & SET-UP INFORMATION

Preparation: Clean weld area of scale and/or oxide. Make sure all oily contaminants are removed with a suitable VOC-free cleaner. Angle prepping normally involves closebutts and infrequently bevel preparations. If needed, a 60° V bevel is acceptable. Pre-heating of stainless steels is generally not required.

Technique: A short, non-contact technique is recommended for both fillet and butt-welding. Use a slightly longer arc-length for bead-on-plate welding. Deposit stringer beads or 2 times to 3 times weave beads. Do not weave more than three times the electrode diameter otherwise excessive heat input will cause distortion.

Post-Welding: Allow parts to cool naturally in still air.
