We have done chemical analysis of round bar and found carbon 0.48percent and sulfuric 0.07percent.
Does E12018G-H4R,as it contains 2percent nickel would be helpful in preventing undergrad crack?

Dear All,
I herd from one client that,"Plate bending to be done to the direction of rolling of the plate" in case of manufacturing a pressure vessel.The plate was of S516Gr.70.
But as per my past experience,i never seen cutting of plates in rolling direction.Please clarify below,
1)What will...
In my view,
1) Can I use local sub-contractor welders with OEM's WPS/PQR to repair the defective welds ?
- Repair can be done with subcontractor developed WPS/PQR(if available).
2) Or do we need to qualify these local sub-contractor welders to OEM's WPS ? OEM's WPS is based on EN standard and...
As per ASME IX,backing welding(or)back side welding is non essential variable(for WPS).
But in PQR,as we have to record actual condition of coupon welded,you need to specify whether back side welding done or not,with sketch of joint details.
