The measurements are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system must be used independently of the other without combining values in any way. The specification with designation A5.14-97 uses U.S. Customary Units. The specification with the desigeation AS.14M.98 uses SI Units. The latter are shown in appropriate columns in ta- bles and in figures, and within brackets { ] when used in text {6.2 For the purpose of determining conformance with this specification, an observed or calculated value shall be rounded to the nearest unit inthe last right-hand place of figures used in expressing the limiting value in accor- dance with the rounding-off method given in ASTM E29, Standard Practice for Using Significant Digits in Tests to Determine Conformance with Specifications Part B Tests, Procedures, and Requirements 7, Summary of Tests Chemical analysis of the filler metal, or the stock from which it was made, is the only test required for classification of « product under this specification, 8.

AL. Introduction ‘The purpose ofthis guide isto correlate the nickel and nickel-alloy bare welding electrodes and rods classifica ‘ions with theie intended applications so they can be used effectively. Reference to appropriate base-metal speci cations is made whenever that can be done and when it Would be helpful. Such references are intended only as ‘examples rather than @ complete listing of the materials for which each filler metal is suitable. A2. Classification System ‘A2.1 The system for classifying the filler metals inthis specification follows the standard pattern used in other [AWS filler metal specifications, The letters “ER” at the Ddeginning of each classification designation stand for electrode and rod, indicating that the filler metal may be used either way. The substitution of the leters “EQ” for “ER” at the beginning of a classification indicates that the product is being supplied as strip electrode (see Table 1, Note m). A2.2 Since the filler metals are classified according to their chemical composition, the chemical symbol “Ni” appears immediately after the “ER” (or “EQ”) as @ means of identifying the filler metal us a nickel-base al- ly. The other symbols (Cr, Co, Cu, Fe, Mo, and W) in the designations are intended to group the filler metals according to their principal alloying elements. The indi Vidual designations are made up of these symbols plus @ ‘number at the end of the designation (ERNIMo-1 or ERNiMo-2, for example). These aumbers separate one Cony by te Anticon lla Soc he ‘Sum dal 05 11:15:13 1998 a See ‘composition from another within a group and are not re- peated within that group. 'A2.3 From an application point of view, most ofthe filler ‘metal classifications in this specification have a corre- sponding classification in ANSI/AWS AS.11/AS.11M, Specification for Nickel and Nickel-Alloy Covered Weld- ing Electrodes. For those cases in which there is a corre- sponding application for a bare electrode or rod “ER” and a covered electrode "E,” Table Al correlates the “ER” classification inthis edition with those in the previ= ‘ous edition ofthis specification and withthe correspond ing covered electrode “E” classification in ANSUAWS. AS.ITJAS.1IM. It also lists the current designation for each classification as itis given in Military Specification MIL-E-21562E, when such a designation exists. ‘An international system for designating welding filler metals is under development by the International [nst- tute of Welding (IIW) for use in future specifications to be issued by the International Standards Organization (ISO). Table Al shows the proposed designations for nickel-alloy filler metals. In that system, the initial “S* designates a solid wire or rod, the letter °N” the alloy system, followed by a four-digit number. For nickel al- {oys, the four-digit number is based upon the UNS num- ber (see Table 1), one ofthe five digits of which has been eliminated, A3.

Any testing a pur- Ad, Certification cchaser requires of the supplier, for material shipped in accordance with this specification, shall be clearly stated in the purchase order, according to the provisions of ANSI/AWS AS.01. In the absence of any such statement in the purchase order, the supplier may ship the material with whatever testing is normally conducted on material of that classification, as specified in Schedule F, Table 1, of ANSI/AWS A5.01. Testing in accordance with any other Schedule in that Table must be specifically re- quired by the purchase order. In such cases, acceptance of the material shipped will be in accordance with those requirements, Copia by the Ameian Welling Soci Sup Ja O5 T1533 1998 ‘The act of placing the AWS specification and classifi cation designations on the packaging enclosing the prod- uct, or the classification on the product itself, constitutes the supplier's (manufacturer's) certification thatthe prod ct meets all ofthe requirements of the specification. The only testing requirement implicit in this cetifiea- tion is thatthe manufacturer has actually conducted the tests required by the specification on material that is rep- resentative of that being shipped and that the material ‘met the requirements of the specification.

AS. Ventilation During Welding |AS.I Five major factors that govern the quantity of fumes in the atmosphere to which welders and welding ‘operators are exposed during welding are listed below: (1) Dimensions of the space in which welding is done (with special regard to the height ofthe ceiling), and (2) Number of welders and welding operators work- ing in the space, and {G) Rate of evolution of fumes, gases, or dust, accord ing tothe materials and processes involved, and (4) The proximity of the welder or welding operator tthe fumes as they issue from the welding zone and to the gases and dust in the space in which the welder is working, and (5) The ventilation provided to the space in which the welding is done. ‘AS.2 American National Standard ANSI/ASC 249.1, ‘Safety in Welding, Cutting, and Allied Processes (pub- lished by the American Welding Society), discusses the ventilation that is required during welding and should be referred to for details, Attention is drawn particularly to the section of that document dealing with ventilation AG, Welding Considerations ‘A6.1 The filler metals in this specification can be used with any of a variety of welding processes. Most notable mong them are gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW), gas metal are welding (GMAW), submerged arc welding (SAW), and plasma arc welding (PAW). SAW and PAW are quite specialized, and the supplier ofthe filler metals should be consulted for recommendations concerning their use, General suggestions are given below for the other two processes ‘A6.2 Before welding or heating any nickel-base alloy, the base metal must be clean. Oil, grease, paint, ubri ceants, marking pencils, temperature indicating materials, threading compounds and other such materials fre- quently contain sulfur or lead that may cause cracking (embrittlement) of the base metal or the weld metal if present during welding or heating. Copia by the Ameian Welling Soci Sup Ja O5 T1533 1998 19 A6.3 For GTAW, direct current-electrode negative (deen) is used, High-purity grades of either argon or he- lium (or a combination of the two) are used asa shielding. gas, AGA For GMAW, direct current-electrode positive (deep) is employed, Argon shielding gas is often used, but mixtures of argon and helium are also commonly sed.

A8. Special Tests It is recognized that supplementary tests may be re- ‘quired for certain applications. In such cases, tests to de- termine specific properties such as corrosion resistance, scaling resistance, or strength at elevated or cryogenic temperatures may be required. ANSVAWS AS.01 con- tains provisions for ordering such tests. This section is included to give guidance to those who desire to specify such special tests. Those tests shall be conducted as agreed upon between supplier and purchaser. ‘AB.1 Corrosion or Scaling Tests. Although welds made with electrodes and rods classified in this specification are commonly used in corrosion and heat-resisting appli- cations, tests for those properties are not included in the specification. When required for a particular application, testing ean be conducted on specimens taken from either a weld pad or a welded joint. A8.L.1 Specimens from a joint are suitable for quali- fying the welding procedure (For a specific application involving corrosion or oxidation resistance) but not for qualifying the filler metal, Tests on specimens from a joint have the disadvantage of being a combined test of the properties of the weld metal the heat-affected zone, and the unaffected base metal. With such specimens, its ‘more difficult to obtain reproducible data (when a differ- ence exists in the properties of the metal in the various parts ofthe specimen). Specimens taken from a joint do have the advantage of being able to duplicate the joint design and the welding sequence planned for fabrication. ‘AB.L.2 Specimens for testing corrosion or oxidation resistance of the weld metal alone are prepared by fol- owing the procedure normally used for the preparation of pads for chemical analysis (sce 9.3 in ANSUAWS, AS.LI/AS.11M). The pad size should be at least 3/4 in [19 mn] in height by 2-1/2 in, [65 mm) in width by (1 + (0.625 n) in. (25 + 16 n mm] where n represents the num- ber of specimens required from the pad. Specimens mea- suring 1/2 by 2 by 1/4 in. (13 by 50 by 6.5 mm] are ‘machined from the top of the pad, in manner such that the 2 in. [50 mm] dimension of the specimen is parallel to the 2-1/2 in, {65 mm] dimension of the pad and the 1/2 in, (13 mm] dimension is parallel with the length of the pad. The heat teatment, surface finish, and marking. (of the specimens prior to testing should be in accordance with standard practices for tess of similar alloys in the ‘wrought or cast forms. The testing procedures should
