This welding procedure specification outlines the requirements for welding 316/316L stainless steel pipe with diameters ranging from 1.6 to 14.22 mm thick. It specifies gas tungsten arc welding will be used for the root and hot passes with ER 309MoL filler metal, while shielded metal arc welding will be used for the fill and cap passes with E 309MoL-17 filler metal. The document provides details on joint design, base metals, welding processes, filler metals, shielding gas, welding parameters, and inspection requirements.
