I understand that AWS D1.1 does not list stainless steel as an approved base metal but if you qualify the procedure does it allow you to use this code? If not, is there an AWS Code that allows welding carbon steel to stainless?
Thanks for any help.
Is it allowable to weld stainless steel to carbon steel using AWS D1.1? I have a WPS for AWS D1.1 that welds carbon to stainless steel using AWS D1.1. Is this allowed by the code AWS D1.1?
