Austenitic Ni--Fe base weld material

Abstract

weld-filler material particularly useful in providing enhanced freedom from weld cracking in fully austenitic Fe--Ni--Cr--Mo--Cu material in which the elements P, Cb, Ce+La, C, Si, S, N and O are controlled to low levels and in which the level of manganese is increased to at least 1% and preferably to at least 1.5%. The weld-filler material in weight percent contains: Carbon -- 0.035 Max. Manganese -- 1-4.0 Silicon -- 0.20 Max. Phosphorus -- 0.020 Max. Sulfur -- 0.005 Max. Chromium -- 19.0 -26.0 Nickel -- 32.5-38 Molybdenum -- 2-9 Copper -- 3.0-4.0 Columbium -- 0.35 Max. Cerium -- 0.01 Max. Boron -- 0.0035 Max. the balance being iron and in which cerium includes cerium plus lanthanum or misch metal.
