This paper discusses the assessment of weld metal ferrite content in duplex stainless steel pipe welded at a 45˚angle. The mechanical and corrosion properties of the weld joint depend on the proportion of ferrite and austenite phases in the microstructure. The ferrite number is measured using a Feritscope on the pipe weld joint for determining the...

... test coupon is made up of ASTM SA 790 with UNS S31803 equivalent to 2209 DSS grade, with dimensions of ϕ355.6 x t 12.70 mm 2 The chemical composition of the test coupon is shown in Table 1. 3 It was recommended to test the welder for the 6G position so that they may qualify for both pipe and plate welding in field joints during construction and turnaround. 1 The ASME Section IX design code for the standard 6G position before the start of welding test coupons is shown in Figure 1, and the appropriate groove joint position for the welder qualification test is shown in Figure 2. Note in Figure 2 that the leveller indicates horizontal and vertical positions, and the axis of the pipe is oriented at 45˚to 45˚to both the horizontal and vertical axis. The pipe orientation was ensured before the start of welding until its completion, as shown in Figure 3. ...

Austenitic stainless steel (ASS) and High nickel steel (HNS) welding consumables are being used for welding Q&T steels, as they have higher solubility for hydrogen in austenitic phase, to avoid hydrogen induced cracking (HIC) but they are very expensive. In recent years, the developments of low hydrogen ferritic steel (LHF) consumables that contain...

The welded metals characteristics produced by TIG welding or laser beam welding depend on heat input as a function of laser power and welding speed. High laser power and high welding speed have produced welded joint with a remarkable decrease in fusion zone size and an acceptable weld profile with high weld depth/width ratio. At duplex stainless st...

This study covers the review of the degradation of ferritic stainless-steel weldments between 2015 and 2022. The industrial and automotive sectors make extensive use of ferritic stainless steel (FSS) due to its superior oxidation and corrosion resistance, low price, high thermal conductivity, and low thermal expansion. However, it has been reported...

The present study aims at investigating bead geometry and the evolution of microstructure with thermal cycles in multipass shielded metal arc welding of a V-groove 13-mm type-2507 super-duplex stainless steel (SDSS) plate. The weld consisted of 4 beads produced with arc energies of 0.81–1.06 kJ/mm. The upper beads showed lower base metal (BM) dilut...
