Thank you for the replies.
I am using the 0.0-0.1t for the root opening.
Welding 0.100” thick 6-4 Ti ,I am having difficulty achieving complete penetration the length of the plate.
I am running at 200 to 230 amps: Utilizing an inert atmosphere glove-box
My usual Ti welding is from 0.005” to...
What is the optimum root opening, for complete penetration weld, in a single pass, one side only for the material and joint described below?
Weld process is GTAW, 3/32 tungsten, 2% thor.
Titanium 6Al 4V, 0.100” thick
Single V butt joint, 60 Deg included angle with 0.025 root face.
Also...
Thank you Unclesyd for the information. I will investigate these companies as soon as possible.
I can not believe how much trouble I am having finding a supplier for Molybdenum GTAW (tig) filler wire.
I am trying to find a reliable supplier of Molybdenum GTAW filer rod.
I will be welding Molybdenum tube and machined parts.
Material is Molybdenum 99.95% TZM: (Ti: 0.4?0.55%, Zr: 0.06?0.12%)
The material to be welded is Molybdenum NOT a metal alloyed with Molybdenum.
Thanks,
Dave
