General information
Product data sheets
Each product data sheet contains a comprehensive description of the welding consumable.
Each data sheet is sub divided as follows:
Standard Designation
The order of classifications is as follows:
• EN ISO, relating to published International-Standards
• EN relating to current standards for information during the interim period
• AWS/ASME
• DIN
Applications and Properties
Description of the most important applications and characteristic properties of the welding consumable.
Materials
The most important base metals according to EN are listed in tables to allow comparison. It is not possible to list all base
metals according to EN. For further information consult a "Key to Steels".
Qualification Tests, Approvals
Each product data sheet gives details of the Technical Inspection and Classification Society Approvals, for the welding
consumable. The most important data referring to the approvals issued at the time of printing are compiled in the table in the
appendix. It should be noted, however, that the extent of the approval may vary due to technical progress (e.g. extended
approval tests). Therefore, we recommend an enquiry to ascertain the most recent approval details for the welding
consumable selected.
Weld Metal Analysis
The chemical composition of the weld metal is indicated by typical values. These values refer to the all-weld metal and were
determined from results generated during our continuous routine quality control procedures. For making the analysis, a weld
pad according to EN ISO 6847 or an all-weld metal test piece according to EN 1597-1 is used.
Mechanical Properties
The mechanical properties are given as typical values and refer to the all-weld metal, with the exception of aluminium and its
alloys, the values of which refer to welded joints. Data referring to preheat and interpass temperature, as well as heat
treatment, are available in the relevant standard for welding consumables. It should be noted, that the mechanical properties
of welded joints depend upon the base metal, dimensions of the component, welding position and weld parameters, so the
properties of a welded joint can deviate from those of the all-weld metal.
