I have to Qualify a mock up procedure of Tube to tube sheet weld as per QW 193.

Material is as follows.
Tube Sheet - SA 350 LF2 Class 1
Tubes -SA 334 Gr 3.

Can someone provide me with information regarding the filler wire to be used for welding

Considering this appears to be for lower temperature service based on materials of construction, I would recommend using the GTAW process or SMAW process with Ni-containing low alloy filler metal, like

SFA 5.28 ER80S- NI2 GTAW process
SFA 5.5 E7018-CIL SMAW process

if your MDMT is below -30 deg F.

If not, ER70S-6 would work for GTAW.

I apologize for not giving full details. MDMT for this exchanger is -50°F.
