Application
This type wire is classified by the chemical composition of deposited weld metal in combination with a specific welding flux using the submerged welding process. The weld metal properties are obtained by the use of a properly selected flux and EB6 wire and knowing if the weldment is to be heat treated or as welded condition.
| Deposited Chemical Composition %(Typical) | ||
| C = 0.07 | S = 0.010 | Mo = 0.50 |
| Mn = 0.60 | P = 0.015 | Cu = 0.20 |
| Si = 0.39 | Cr = 5.25 | |
Note: Using Neutral flux
| Mechanical Properties (Nominal Values) R.T. | |
| Tensile Strength | 72,000 psi |
| Yield Strength | |
| Elongation | 27% |
Recommended Welding Parameter
Weld parameter dependent upon the wire diameter and welding flux being used.
Note: Both agglomerated and fused fluxes can be used for submerged arc welding.
Note:The chemical composition of the flux mainly affects the chemistry of the weld metal and consequently its corrosion resistance and mechanical properties.
