SME A06

Low Heat Input Welding Alloys

Electrodes for MMAW Process

 

Alloy Basis: C, Mn, Si

DETAILS

Weld deposits with high strength, toughness, and extreme crack resistance to all steels.

 

Features/Characteristics

Deposits are superior crack resistance, spray type metal transfer, joining steels of unknown compositions, machinable, built-up and overlay improved strength and ductility.

 

SME A06 Welding Rod Uses/Applications

Heavy machinery parts, earth moving equipment parts, automobile springs, trunnions of cement mills, parts subject to heat, corrosion, and impact. Joining and surfacing of high carbon, low, and high alloy steels. Also used for welding of dissimilar steels.

 

Welding Technique

Clean the weld area. Preheat high alloy and high carbon steel to about 200-250 °C followed by slow cooling after welding. Hold a short are and adopt a stringer bead technique. Hot peening is advisable on joints.
