Method and wire for submerged arc welding of pipe

A combination of welding wire and welding flux for submerged arc welding of high strength low alloy pipe which require low temperature impact properties of at least 30 ft./lb. at -13 DEG F. The wire consists essentially of 2.0 to 3.5 wt. % manganese; 0.01 wt. % to 1.5 wt. % silicon; 0.05 to 0.15 wt....

Zusammenfassung:A combination of welding wire and welding flux for submerged arc welding of high strength low alloy pipe which require low temperature impact properties of at least 30 ft./lb. at -13 DEG F. The wire consists essentially of 2.0 to 3.5 wt. % manganese; 0.01 wt. % to 1.5 wt. % silicon; 0.05 to 0.15 wt. % carbon; balance iron with the proviso that when manganese is greater than 2.5 up to 3.5 wt. % the silicon content is between 0.01 wt. % to 1.5 wt. % and when the manganese content is between 2.0 to 2.5 wt. % the silicon content is greater than 0.3 wt. % up to 1.5 wt. %. The flux used with these wires is preferably acidic in nature.
