Introduction

This catalogue reviews the internationalrange of flux- and metal-cored weldingwires available from FILARC WeldingIndustries, Utrecht, The Netherlands. You will find types for practically all steelsand every field of steel fabrication.

Index pages 4 to11 categorise coredwires in three ways, enabling you to selectthese according to:

• Steel category with products listed innumerical order, see main index page 4.

• AWS, EN, and DIN classifications, seepage 8.

• Product families in order of yieldstrength/0.2% proof stress for normaland high strength steels, see page 11.

Product data pages, listed in the mainindex, provide detailed information oneach cored wire type.

A survey of the international programme ofFILARC stick electrodes is given onpages 134 to 137, including AWS, DINand/or EN classifications. Pages 138 to140 survey the FILARC range of solid MIGwires and TIG rods. The list on pages 141to 142 presents the full FILARC consum-able programme as equivalent types.Full information on FILARC stick electrodesis given in a separate catalogue. Pleasecontact FILARC for your free personal copy.

FILARC ceramic weld metal supportsfor efficient one-sided welding of root runsare described on pages 129 to 133.

Guide to using yourFILARC catalogue

The introductory section of this cataloguecontains indexes and tables to assist youin selecting the FILARC flux- or metal-cored wire most appropriate for yourapplication.The general content pages on pages 4 to6 give an overview of the complete rangeof FILARC cored wires categorized inproduct groups, namely for:

• non- and low-alloyed steels• high strength steels• creep resisting steels• stainless steels• dissimilar steels• soft-martensitic steels• hardfacing applications

Directly behind the FILARC PZ6XXX typenumber, or above a group of wires belong-ing to the same category, you will find theflux formulation, rutile, basic or metal-cored, and a short description of the in-tended application or most characteristicproperty.

Further selection guidance is given by thetable on pages 8 to 10, surveying the mostfrequently used international classifica-tions, and on pages 13 to 17, giving thefull list of international approvals.

The survey of FILARC products in order ofyield strength given on page 11 may behelpful when selecting cored wires from adesign point of view.

Pages 18 to 21 show the EN and AWSclassification systems, explaining the cod-ing used in this catalogue for classifyingindividual products.

Introduction to the cored wire groups

These provide general information andadvice on selecting the cored wire(s) mostappropriate for your application. In manycases there will be options which bringextra productivity compared with multi-pur-pose types; for example high speed types(FILARC PZ6XXXHS) with extra high filldegree for downhand and standing fillets.Other examples are rutile types with a fastfreezing slag, giving up to 4kg/h deposi-tion rate (100% duty cycle) in vertical-upwelding.The information in the introduction to eachcored wire section will enable you to see indetail where advantageous options exist.

Guide to the product data pages

Product data pages (starting at page 34)are designed for easy access to all dataneeded for design and fabrication. Theyare always presented in the same formatto aid easy comparison.

All international classifications are repeat-ed directly below the FILARC type number,including the classification conformance.The specification of the cored wire is cho-sen such that it satisfies the most impor-tant standard(s).Note the occasional use of the ~ sign (near-est) behind classifications when a wire notfully meets this classification. This mostlyconcerns the chemical composition.

The grey identification bar on the right handside of the product pages surveys international approvals, but without theirdenotations. Please refer to pages 13 to 17

for detailed information. Where an approvalfor a cored wire has been applied for, buthas not been received at the time this cata-logue was published, this is indicated bythe term "pending". Additional approvals fora given cored wire may arise. ContactFILARC or ESAB for the latest information.

Further down the identification bar, keyinformation is given on weldability. Thewelding positions for which the cored wireis suited are indicated by icons represent-ing following ASME and EN designations:

Certificates specifying actual values of allrelevant chemical elements per lot num-ber, can be made available on request.

Shielding gas exactly specifies for whichgas compositions the stated mechanicalproperties can be guaranteed, eg. Ar/15-25%CO2. This has become necessarybecause EN 439 may specify a widerrange of gas compositions for a specificcategory than the previous standard forwhich the wires were originally tested.M21 according to Euronorm, for example,covers Ar/CO2 mixtures with 5-25% CO2,whereas the old DIN specified 15-25% CO2.

Weld metal hydrogen, given for non- andlow-alloyed types, states typical valuesvalid for diameter size 1.2mm. Samples forhydrogen determination are welded at250A and 15mm stick-out, unless statedotherwise (e.g. high speed types). In addi-tion, pages 26 to 29 give detailed informa-tion on the influence of welding parame-ters on the hydrogen level (acc. EN758) ofseveral individual cored wires.

Deposition data give deposition rates inkg/h at 100% duty cycle, for a characteris-tic shielding gas within the specified com-position range.

All weld metal mechanical properties oftypes for non- and low-alloyed steels areobtained in tests according to the UnifiedRules of the ship classification societies,AWS and EN. Mechanical properties oftypes for high strength and creep resistantsteels are determined according to toAWS 5.29 specifications, and of stainlesssteel types to AWS 5.22.

Svedala Compaction Equipment, Karlskrona, Sweden.Use of PZ6105R, a metal-cored wire specially devel-oped for robotic welding, for the fabrication of framesof vibratory road compactors. Important wire properties are a good penetration andtie-in, necessary to avoid fatigue cracking, excellentfeedability, and smooth arc ignition without burn-backproblems and low spatter. Shown here is CA152, a universal frame for various Dynapac compactors. Clearly visible is the characteris-tic regular frequency at which slag islands are formed, re-sulting from very stable arc properties. The close-up (bottom) reveals an excellent weld appearance with easi-ly removable slag.

FILARC low-hydrogen cored wires

Low-hydrogen from FILARC cored wires

IntroductionModern thermo-mechanically treated andaccelerated cooled steels, with low hard-enability, provide fabricators with usefulopportunities to avoid preheating whenwelding with low-hydrogen consumables.Generally speaking, cored wires link-upvery well with this development in steelproduction, because they have a muchbetter hydrogen performance than thestick electrodes they are gradually replac-ing in today's fabrication practice. This better performance is due to theabsence of hygroscopic binders in the fill-ing of cored wires, resulting in a muchlower sensitivity to moisture re-absorption.Cored wires generally do not require cli-mate controlled storage or re-baking, or aspecial vacuum packaging to avoid these,as with stick electrodes. Some manufac-turers are nowadays even able to producerutile cored wires well within the lowest ENhydrogen class H5; a property that is stillunthinkable for equivalent rutile stick elec-trodes.

FILARC cored wiresProduction of FILARC cored wires uses theunique rolling method; a dry productionprocess which avoids hydrogen containinglubricants. No baking is needed to removethese lubricants, so giving FILARC coredwires the characteristic shiny surface. FILARC's technology enables the produc-tion of basic, metal-cored and even rutilecored wires with very low weld metalhydrogen values. The product data pages,starting at page 34 give typical hydrogenvalues for all FILARC types for normal-

temperature steels, low-temperature steels,weather resistant steels, high strengthsteels, creep resistant steels, and for (soft)martensitic stainless steels used for hydroturbine components. Unless otherwise stat-ed the values are valid for the 1.2mm dia-meter size, determined at 250A and 15mmstick-out length. Metal-cored and basic FILARC types gen-erally give the lowest weld metal hydrogencontent; mostly around 2ml/100g. Rutile types yield somewhat higher values,generally between 3 and 4ml/100g, but stillwell within EN785 class H5.

Hydrogen parameter envelopeThe hydrogen content of weldments maydiffer from the levels obtained under thestandardised test conditions mentionedabove, because welding parameters havea substantial influence. The weld metalhydrogen content increases with higherwelding currents and with shorter stick-outlengths.The influence of welding parameters onthe hydrogen level is visualised in socalled hydrogen parameter envelopes.Next page, this envelope is shown for theFILARC PZ6113; an all-position rutile typeused accross Europe for shipbuilding andgeneral construction. Since it is a wire thatcan be used in both Ar/CO2 and CO2,envelopes are shown for both gases. It is shown that the H5 limit is only slightlyexceeded for welding currents above 250Aand a short stick-out length; so when usingthe most unfavourable parameter setting.And this is only the case with Ar/CO2. The use of CO2 results in even lower val-ues, which is a commonly observed phe-nomenon in cored wire welding. The dia-

gram proves that, although a rutile type,PZ6113 is a very dependable consumablegiving all necessary security.Another multi-purpose type is FILARCPZ6125; an all-position basic wire devel-oped for offshore fabrication and generalconstruction. It is used in Ar/CO2 mixedgas. The hydrogen parameter envelope ofthis type confirms a very secure perfor-mance, well below the H5 limit for the fullrange of applicable welding currents. Iden-tical envelopes are valid for the range ofcored wires for high strength steels(PZ6145 to PZ6149) and for the basictypes of the range for creep resistantsteels (PZ6201 to PZ6205). These wireshave an identical performance, becausethey are based on PZ6125.All metal-cored types have a hydrogenperformance comparable with FILARCPZ6125.

FILARC PZ6138FILARC PZ6138 is a rutile all-position wirespecifically developed for offshore fabrica-tion, where the use of thick-walled materi-als coincides with high restraint and threedimensional stresses. Although these con-ditions call for a basic low-hydrogen con-sumable with appropriate mechanicalproperties, rutile cored wires are preferredin this industrial segment, because of theirsuperb weldability. Next page, we discussthe performance of PZ6138 in detail,including sensitivity to moisture reabsorp-tion during storage in the original packag-ing, during unprotected exposure on theshop floor, and during welding. Hydrogen values, determined under theabove mentioned standard Euronorm con-ditions are statistically between 1.8 and3.5ml/100g deposited weld metal, whereasits hydrogen parameter envelope shows a

dependable performance over the com-plete range of applicable parameters.Another important feature is the resistanceto moisture reabsorption. Moisture pick-upcan take place during long term storage inthe original packaging (shelf life) and dur-ing unprotected exposure on the shopfloorafter opening the packaging. Accelerated shelf life tests under anatmosphere of 80%RH and 26.6°C, a forEurope severe climatic condition equalingan air moisture content of 20mg/m3, revealan initial increase in hydrogen content flat-tening out as exposure times lengthen, forboth packed and unpacked wire.Evidently, this condition is unrealisticallysevere. Under normal warehouse condi-tions shelf life is regarded as practicallyunlimited, whereas moisture pick-up onthe shopfloor is minimal when care is tak-en to return partly used spools to theiroriginal packaging (see storage recom-mendations). The sensitivity to the air moisture contentduring welding is tested in a climate roomunder atmospheric conditions of 8, 20 and35mg moisture/m3. The latter equals anextreme tropical condition. As may beexpected from a gas shielded cored wire,PZ6138 is practically insensitive to the airmoisture content. The same applies to PZ6125. For compar-ison, a 8016-G basic MMA electrode hasbeen tested as well, showing a substantialincrease in weld metal hydrogen content.The above diagrams reveal why FILARCPZ6138 has earned an excellent reputa-tion in offshore fabrication and plays a keyrole in QA programmes aiming at crack-free welding without, or with minimal pre-heating.

SHIELDING GAS


General-purpose metal-cored wire, pro-ducing only very few silicate islands,so especially suited for semi-automatic,mechanised and robotic multi-layerwelding without interrun deslagging.Superior to solid wire in terms of arcbehaviour, weld appearance, penetra-tion and productivity.The Ø1.6mm is a very productive sizefor butt and fillet welds in the down-hand and hor./vert. position. Productivityat the same current is further increasedby 10-15% when using – polarity.Root runs without backing are weldedwith short arc. Single-sided root runsare deposited economically on ceramicbacking, using short arc in positionand spray arc for downhand use.Pulsed MIG is used to optimise fillingin position, using Ar/8%CO2 gas.

The high speed (HS) cored wires describedon following pages have an extra high fillingratio, with adapted formulation, to obtain upto 20% higher productivity in downhandapplications (PA/1G, 1F) using conventionalpower sources.This is achieved by increasing the fill ratio ofestablished FILARC cored wires, diametersize 1.6mm. The resulting thinner metalsheath provides higher resistance heating ( I2R effect) at the same current, so highermelt-off rates.The range comprises types for flux-cored arc

welding (FCAW) and one type for vertical-upelectrogas welding. The range for FCAWcomprises a rutile type, a metal-cored type,as well as a basic type; together covering themajority of fabricators’ requirements.The wires are primarily developed for weldingin the PA position at depostion rates reachinglevels of 15kg/h at 100% duty cycle. As such,they provide over 20% more productivity thanconventional flux- and metal cored wires.

The wire for vertical-up electrogas welding,PZ6137EG (basic), allows up to 10m/h travelspeed, with good CVN toughness at -20°Cfor both weld and heat affected zone.

SHIELDING GAS

Basic high deposition wire for semi-automatic and mechanised welding ofsingle and multi-layer butt and filletwelds in PA and PB position. Developed for use in Ar/CO2 as well asCO2 gas shielding. Good CVN tough-ness down to -40°C, both in the aswelded and stress relieved conditions.CTOD tested (SR only). Well suited forapplications with thicker plates(>15mm) and high restraint.Thick, flat root passes with smooth tie-in are built-up easily on ceramic back-ing, both in 1G and 2G position. Forthis reason, it is often used in ship-building for the root run, before fillingwith SAW. Also applied for filling short-er joints, as an alternative to SAW. Oneof the best wires for trouble-free weld-ing in the 2G position, using CO2 gas.

FILARC flux-cored wiresfor creep resisting steels

This group of cored wires is employed forwelding low-alloyed steels which containmolybdenum and/or chromium to provideresistance to the decrease in strengthproperties at elevated temperatures.These steels are mainly employed for boil-ers and equipment used at high operatingtemperatures, in particular where goodcreep resistance is necessary.The FILARC cored wire range contains all-position basic types, based on thePZ6125 formulation, for all commonlyused creep resisting steels.

In addition, the range contains two rutiletypes for 0.5Mo or 1.25Cr-0.5Mo alloyedheat resistant steels. They are based onthe well known PZ6113 and provideexcellent weldability in all welding posi-tions. Unlike rutile electrodes, these wiresyield weld metal hydrogen levels belowH5. Additionally, the wires are very insensi-tive to moisture re-absorption.

The table below surveys the completerange, indicating the steel category forwhich they are intended.

FILARC metal-cored wires forstainless steels

The FILARC range for stainless steels com-prises a series of metal-cored types with all-position weldability. They are multi-purposeconsumables covering the majority of semi-automatic stainless steel welding.The absence of slag and a low spatter levelmake this group of wires also very suitedfor mechanised or robotic operation. Theyare welded under Ar/CO2 gas shielding.A primary application is for (multi-layer)fillet welds at high welding currents andhigh travel speeds. The table below reviews the complete ran-ge, indicating the steel grades for whichthe individual types are intended.

FILARC metal-cored wires for dissimilar and armour steels

When stainless steel must be welded tomild or low-alloyed steels, for instance astainless steel container with mild steelreinforcement strips, the filler weld metalmust be carefully selected. As a general rule, the chemical composi-tion of the weld must avoid, as far as pos-sible, martensite formation or a fullyaustenitic structure. The accompanyingSchaeffler diagram is very useful forselecting a suitable filler metal. Followingis a typical example of its use.

Example:Consider a V-joint between two plates;one type AISI 318 (no official type butcommonly used), the other mild steel Fe410, with chemical compositions shown.The composition of the weld pool is gov-erned by the chemical composition of thefiller material and the amount of the parent

metals melted from the two plates.Assuming equal contribution of both par-ent metals, the point C midway between Aand B indicates their combined contribu-tion.Under normal welding conditions the par-ent metal will dilute the filler material by30%. The final composition of the weld

In the case of FILARC PZ6470, however,5.5-7.0%Mn alloying protects the weldsufficiently against hot cracking.

metal is calculated by taking a linebetween point C and the filler material'sSchaeffler equivalent and moving the latter30% of the line length towards C, indicat-ed by points D and D1 on the diagram.If PZ6410 (308 type) is selected as thefiller material, resulting point D indicates ahigh chance of martensite formation.Use of PZ6414 (309L type) as filler material,with resulting point D1, will produce theideal weld metal structure: an austeniticmatrix containing some 6% ferrite.

Primarily developed for welding armoursteels, PZ6470 is also a good option forwelding dissimilar steels. Strictly speaking,the Schaeffler diagram is not valid for highmanganese weld metal compositions,although it will rightly indicate a fullyaustenitic weld. Normally, a fully austeniticweld entails a risk of hot cracking.

FILARC metal-cored wires for(soft) martensitic steels

This range contains three metal-coredtypes designed for construction and repairof Pelton and Francis wheels, and otherhydro turbine components in (soft) mar-tensitic steels. Their composition matchesthree frequently applied steel grades. Welded with both conventional and pulsedMIG equipment, arc characteristics arevery favourable. The deep penetration andgood tie-in reduce the incidence of fusiondefects: a disadvantage commonlyencountered in the rebuilding of Peltonwheels with solid wire MIG welding. This,together with good wetting properties andflat beads, leads to lower repair rates andreduced grinding of overthickness.

The wires require Ar/2%CO2 gas shielding.

The range comprises following types:

FILARC PZ6156 13Cr/1.5Ni-alloyedmartensitic steels

FILARC PZ6166 13Cr/4Ni-alloyed softmartensitic steels

FILARC PZ6176 16Cr/5Ni-alloyed softmartensitic steels

FILARC gas- and self shielded cored wires for hardfacing

The FILARC cored wires, described in thissection, provide substantially increasedproductivity when applying wear resistantalloys to surfaces of components subjectto abrasion, impact, heat and corrosion, ora combination of these.Some wires are available either as metal-cored versions using CO2 or Ar/CO2shielding gases (PZ61xx), or rutileversions designed as selfshielding typesfor outdoor use (PZ63xx).Available wire sizes are 1.2, 1.6 and2.4mm, depending on composition andintended application.Due to the high filling ratios, depositionrates can exceed 10kg/h at 100% dutycycle.

Production of equipment

Rolled, machined, cast or forged parts canbe hardfaced easily by hand when select-ed areas are involved. Deposition rates willbe far higher than with stick electrodes,with further economy gained by avoidingstub losses, and no deslagging whenusing metal-cored wires.For rollers, or larger flat areas, mechanisedoperation can provide substantially in-creased productivity, and no deslagging.Productivity will often exceed submergedarc welding on rollers up to 500mm diam-eter or higher. The 1.6mm size is usuallyadopted.For large flat areas using broadly weavedruns, the 2.4mm size used at 500 to 600Amay prove most economical.

Maintenance and repair work

Rutile, selfshielding wires avoid the needfor gas supplies and provide depositionrates far exceeding stick electrodes. The1.6mm size can provide horizontal-verticalwelds, also build-up of wear/abrasionresisting patterns on blades, etc.For building-up teeth or other work wherecopper moulds can be employed, the2.4mm size welded with a long stick-outbrings the fastest, most economical depo-sition.

Choice of material depends on the prop-erties required, in respect to:

• Resistance to abrasive wear,i.e. hardness

• Impact resistance, i.e. toughness• Resistance to heat and corrosion

Flux and metal-cored wires are listed inthe table on page 102-103 together withequivalent stick electrodes and solid MIGwires. They are described in detail onfollowing pages.The chemical and mechanical propertiesdetailed, relate to pure weld metal. Inpractice these figures will be achievedwith the third layer. The first and secondlayer will show lower values, due to dilu-tion with the base material. Also, the cool-ing rate will, in many cases, influence thestructure of the hardfacing metal.

Rebuilding the core of a stone crusher for acement plant at Carrières de Ciment Belge,Gaurain-Ramecroix in Belgium. Here, FILARCPZ6358, 1.6mm was applied to renew the bot-tom circumference by approx. 50mm thick-ness. The welding areas were brought to thedownhand position; a special mould supportedthe weld metal to obtain the required profile. Afinal layer was deposited with PZ6154, to

achieve initial wear resistance until the16%Mn/16%Cr alloyed weld metal underneathhas sufficiently work-hardened during service. The repair job took some 900 hours and in-volved 1240kg of cored wire. The total cost forrepair amounted to 3 million BFR, while thepurchasing price for a new core was some 12million BFR. A cost calculation for repair withstick electrodes amounted to 6 million BFR.

They are suit-ed for repairing and building-up ofrelatively soft components prior todepositing a highly wear resistantlayer. An unlimited number of layerscan be welded without risk of crack-ing. The deposit is highly resistant toheavy shocks and has a moderatewear resistance. Because of thehomogeneous structure of the weldmetal, the wires are very suitable formetal to metal wear applications.These wires are successfully employ-ed for building up shovels, scrapers,hammers, wagon wheels, tractorsprockets, idler shaft and spindles.

The occupational health hazards related toflux-cored arc welding, described below,are not very different from those of othermanual and semi-automatic arc weldingprocesses; nor are the precautions weldersshould take to protect themselves.

Radiation

Cored wire welding is often done atcurrents beyond 250A. Radiation is moreintense than with stick electrodes, but it hasroughly the same frequencies, ranging frominfra red to ultra violet. The higher intensitynecessitates the use of darker weldingglasses; typically number 11 or 12. Skinmust be protected against radiation at alltimes.The welding site must be isolated from itssurroundings, for instance by welding cur-tains. A wire with a low fume emission, willnormally give a more intense radiation. Thisexplains the higher radiation from metal-cored wires.

Welding fumes

Fumes from arc welding consumables con-sist of various airborne substances (fineparticles or gases) which may presenthealth hazards when inhaled or swallowedin the absence of adequate ventilation andexhaust facilities. The degree of hazard tothe welder depends upon the compositionof the fumes, the concentration in the airthat he is breathing, and the time to whichhe is exposed to it.The chemical composition of the fumes ofwelding consumables, along with extensivesafety information and guidelines, is givenin Safety Data Sheets provided by the ma-nufacturers in accordance with new Euro-pean rules. In the end of this chapter, youwill find an example of a Safety Data Sheet

as provided by FILARC Welding Industries. Ceramic backing materials used for rootdeposition do not add to the fumes of weld-ing consumables. In fact, it is observed thatfume emission from filler materials is slightlyreduced when welding on ceramic backing.However, attention must be given to stripsthat are attached to the backside of the jointby means of glued aluminium foil. Although,no well researched information is availableabout the toxicity of glue evaporating underthe arc heat, it is wise to treat it as a possi-bly hazardous gas and take precautions.The glued aluminium foil used by FILARC fortheir ceramic backings, is tested to producenon-toxic fumes.

Although not arising from the welding con-sumable itself, gases like nitric oxide, nitro-gen dioxide and ozone are produced by thethe heat of the welding arc or its radiation.Especially when using Ar-based mixed gas-es or when welding in the short arc mode,radiation can cause a photo-chemical pro-duction of ozone which can enter thebreathing zone of the welder. In the case ofFCAW, ozone formation may occur whenwelding at high currents, or when weldingreflecting materials, and may be increasedwhen using argon rich shielding gases.

With FCAW, ozone formation is especiallypronounced when welding in the spray arcmode using shielding gases with a high Arcontent (M12 or M13), or when welding inthe short arc mode (thin plates, root runs,positional welding).

Carbon monoxide (CO) may be producedwhen using CO2 as a shielding gas, or fromthe decomposition of carbonates in flux-cored wires. In confined spaces, this can leadto CO contents beyond the TLV value; to becounteracted by adequate fume extraction.

Hazards of excessive exposure to welding fumes

Effects from excessive exposure to fumesarising from inadequate ventilation maybecome apparent at the time of welding,shortly afterwards, or at some later date.Some of the effects are summarised below,and here it is important to note that workersother than welders may also come into con-tact with the products of welding fumes.

Irritation of the respiratory tractThis is the effect of dust or fumes on thelining of the respiratory tract and can causedryness of the throat, tickling, coughing,chest tightness, wheezing and difficulty inbreathing. In its most acute form it cancause the lungs to become full of fluid. Theeffects will vary with exposure, concentra-tion and type of irritant.

Metal fume feverThe inhalation of freshly formed metallicoxide such as those of zinc, chromium,nickel, copper and manganese may lead toan acute influenza-like illness termed metalfume fever.

Systemic poisoningThis can result from inhalation or swallow-ing of substances such as fluorides, hexa-valent chromium, lead and barium.

Long term effectsCertain constituents of welding fumes, likehexavalent chromium, are carcinogenic.

FibrosisThis is the formation of fibrous scar tissuein the lungs. It is the result of a reactionbetween dust or fumes with the lung tissue.There are various types depending on thenature of the substance involved and dura-

tion of exposure.In all cases of doubt concerning physicalresponse to welding pollutants, medicaladvice should be sought promptly.

Fire/explosion hazard

Welding consumables are not inflammableunder ordinary conditions and do normallynot present a fire or explosion risk. A fire orexplosion may result, however, when weld-ing is carried out in the presence of inflam-mable/explosive materials.

Atmospheric pollutants

In any welding operation sources of atmos-pheric contamination such as coatings,paint, oil, grease or de-greasing agents, maybe present in the welding zone, adding tothe fumes arising from weldingconsumables. Advice regarding the natureand extent of any hazard that might arisedirectly or indirectly from such substancesshould always be obtained from the manu-facturer of these products.

Precautions

Hazards from welding can be avoided bytaking adequate safety precautions. In providing welders and welding related per-sonnel with a safe working environment, fab-ricators are guided by national and interna-tional safety standards and legislation, suchas The Health & Safety guidance note EH40"Occupational Exposure Limits", issued byThe Welding Manufacturers Association inthe UK.Most safety standards define safe workingconditions by specifying long term expo-sure limits in mg/m3 for the concentration ofa given type of welding fume in the air at awelding site, and, additionally, for the con-

centration of very specific constituentsknown to be hazardous (TLV: ThresholdLimit Value).Fabricators are obliged by law to haveknowledge of the standards and legislations

valid for their country, to provide adequateventilation and/or exhaustion to keep thelevel of contamination within the specifiedsafety limits, and to instruct and oblige theirpersonnel to apply the means provided.

WARNINGProtect yourself and others. Read and understand thislabel. Take precautions when welding. Follow your employ-er's safety practices which should be based on manufac-turer's hazard data available to him. FUMES AND GASEScan be dangerous to your health. ARC RAYS can injureeyes and burn skin. ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.

– Read and understand the manufacturer's instructions and your employer'ssafety practices.

– Keep your head out of the fumes.– Use enough ventilation, exhaust at the arc, or both, to keep fumes and gases

away from your breathing zone and the general area.– Wear correct eye, ear and body protection.– Do not touch live electrical parts.– See American National Standard Z49.1, Safety in Welding and Cutting, pub-

Since its introduction for shipbuilding, useof ceramic weld metal supports for fast rootpass deposition has spread to bridge build-ing, pressure vessels, general steel compo-nent construction and other areas of fabri-cation. This has been accompanied byincreasing use of flux and metal-coredwires to gain optimum productivity.

Process advantages are summarised as:

• Higher welding currents possible, somuch increased root pass depositionrate.

• High quality root runs with dependablepenetration and smooth profile.

• Applicable in 1G, 2G, 3G up positions.• Gouging, grinding and sealing of back

side are avoided.• Welder qualification easier to acquire.

FILARC ceramic weld metal supports haveno adverse influence on weld metal compo-sition and mechanical properties. They aredry and insensitive to moisture absorption,leaving consumables' low-hydrogen perfor-mance unaffected.

The FILARC range presented here comprisesthe most commonly used types, coveringthe majority of applications in any type ofindustry. The range comprises grey andbrown ceramic blocks/strips.

Grey types are of a harder ceramic, with ahigher melting point and a lower slag pro-duction than brown types. Grey types aremore prone to cracking by thermal expan-sion, and therefore always need a carrier inthe form of a rail or adhesive strip.Brown types can be applied without a carri-er and, in addition, can be cut.

Types with a concave groove are employed

for processes producing no or relativelysmall amounts of slag, such as GMAW withsolid wire, and FCAW with basic flux-coredor metal-cored wires.

Rectangular grooves are needed to acco-modate the higher slag production fromspecial basic stick electrodes as FILARC35B, rutile flux-cored wires and SAW fluxes.Both types are supplied as loose ceramicblocks, as blocks mounted in rigid metal railsfor straight joints, or as blocks on self-adhe-sive aluminium tape or fitted on wire. Blockson tape are available as semi rigid forstraight joints, and flexible for curved jointsas in ship hulls, tanks, vessels and pipes.

Centerline cracking on ceramic backing

When welding root runs on ceramic backingstrips, centerline cracking may occur athigh heat inputs. This is a characteristicaspect of all rutile cored wires.The concave bead shape promotes anunfavourable solidification, making the weldprone to hot cracking, especially whenshrinkage forces are high. For crack freewelding, following guidelines should beobserved:

• Apply a joint angle of 45-60°C andapprox. 5mm root opening.

• Use ceramic strips with a rectangulargroove to accomodate the slag. Thegroove width must be around 15mm.

• Use welding currents below 180A(Ø1.2mm). This gives a more or less ovalweld pool, instead of the unfavourablearrow shape.

• Minimize weaving to avoid excessivebead thickness, while keeping the arc infront of the weld pool to obtain sufficientpenetration.
