    WELDING ISSUES WITH 316/CF8M PICKLING AND PASSIVATING

    you have given me alot to think about. i will follow up with the way the castings are weld repaired, see how they look after pickling which is carried out offsite. As for minimizing the occurrence of surface defects, that's another issue altogether, most castings need touching up a little...

    WELDING ISSUES WITH 316/CF8M PICKLING AND PASSIVATING

    we have a standard - MSS SP-55 where the casting has to pass a visual inspection before it is passed onto the customer. so we weld up any defects to smooth up the surface area , which will be machined out by the customer. but this issue is has only started a few months ago , no process changes...
