• Plan on it !
• Get a quality vendor !
• Do it !

Traditional Preheat
Notice
Anything?
Post Baking Prior to PWHT ?
• Practices …
– Preheat Temperature (~400F) up to 600F
– 15 min. to 4 hrs.
• However, If…
– Low Hydrogen Welding Consumables
– Proper Preheat
– Proper Cleanliness
• What if I don’t?
– May increase creep strength…
– But, may lose some service life …
PWHT
• Base metal isn’t the problem
– It’s the weld metal!
