Weld Specifications and Parameters
Note: Personal breathing protection should be worn by the welders. Personal breathing protection will prevent fumes from entering the lungs of the person that is welding. Use a 1U-8088 Type H Respirator for respiratory protection.
All of the welders must be qualified in Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) and Flux Cored Arc Welding (FCAW). All of the welders must be qualified in groove welding and fillet welding in the vertical position. Refer to the American National Standards Institute (ANSI)/American Welding Society (AWS) D1.1. Prior to welding, the process must have been used by the welders during the last 6 months. Welding qualifications must be documented and welding qualifications must be current.
The surrounding area must be a minimum temperature of 16 °C (60 °F) before welding and during welding.
The proper stick welding electrode for Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) is E7018 American National Standards Institute (ANSI)/American Welding Society (AWS) A5.1. The finished weld will have the following minimum mechanical properties:
- 480 MPa (69,600 psi) Tensile Strength
- 400 MPa (58,000 psi) Yield Strength
- 22 percent elongation in 50 mm (2 inch)
- 27 N·m (20 lb ft) at −29 °C (−20 °F) Impact Toughness
The "E7018" electrodes must be stored in an electrode oven at 121 °C (250 °F). Scrap the "E7018" electrodes or recondition the "E7018" electrodes if the "E7018" electrodes get damp. Recondition the "E7018" electrodes to the manufacturer specifications. The following table contains electrode current settings in relation to the electrode diameters:
Parameters for Welding     | |
---|---|
Diameter     | Amperage     |
3 mm (.12 inch)     |
70-140     |
4 mm (.16 inch)     |
110-180     |
5 mm (.20 inch)     |
190-270     |
Set the polarity to direct electrode positive (reverse polarity). Use the direct current. Remove the slag after every weld pass. The width of the weld should not exceed two times the electrode diameter.
As an alternative process, use the Flux Cored Arc Welding (FCAW) with E71T-1 H8 (ANSI/A5.20) welding electrode and the manufacturer shielding gases that are specified for inside welding. The H8 implies that the electrode is designed to provide less than 8 ml/100 g of diffusible hydrogen in the weld deposit. The weld that is deposited by the flux cored welding electrode will have the following minimum mechanical properties:
- 480 MPa (69,600 psi) Tensile Strength
- 400 MPa (58,000 psi) Yield Strength
- 22 percent elongation in 50 mm (2 inch)
- 27 N·m (20 lb ft) at −29 °C (−20 °F) Impact Toughness
Use only flux cored welding electrodes that have been stored in undamaged packages that resist moisture or use only flux cored welding electrodes that have been stored in an oven at 120 °C (250 °F).
Welding parameters will vary due to the welding position and due to the manufacturer of the welding electrode. A 1.3 mm (0.051 inch) electrode diameter will typically have the following welding parameters:
Parameters for Welding     | ||
---|---|---|
Wire Feed Rate     | Voltage     | Approximate Amperage     |
Minimum 200 inches per minute     | 24     | 210     |
Optimum 275 inches per minute     | 28     | 250     |
Maximum 325 inches per minute     | 29     | 300     |
Note: Use the manufacturer recommended welding electrode parameter.
Set the polarity to direct electrode positive (reverse polarity). Use the direct current. Remove the slag after every weld pass. The width of the weld should not exceed two times the electrode diameter.
Refer to ""Welding Instructions" " for more welding guidelines.
Welding Instructions
Before welding on the body, verify the materials that are used. There are specific welding procedures for each material. Refer to the following procedures in order to weld the materials during the assembly of the truck body.
Note: When two or more different materials need to be welded together, use the procedure for the material that has the more stringent requirements.
400 Brinell Hardness Number or 450 Brinell Hardness Number Material
The following procedure covers the requirements for welding the plate assemblies that are fabricated with 400 Brinell hardness number material or 450 Brinell hardness number material. Refer to ""Welding Specifications and Parameters" " for qualifications, safety, and welding electrode parameters. Attach the welding ground cable directly to the body assembly. Protect all of the machined areas from sparks and spatter that are produced by welding, chipping, and grinding operations.
Proper preparation of the welding area must be conducted prior to welding. All weld joints and welding areas must be exceptionally clean. Clean the welding area with a grinder. Completely remove all paint, rust, scale, slag, dirt, moisture, grease, etc. before welding.
NOTICE |
---|
400 Brinell hardness number and 450 Brinell hardness number are sensitive to hydrogen induced cracking. Cleanliness of the weld joints and of the consumables is of the utmost importance. |
Tight fitup of the body assemblies is important. Ensure that every effort is made in order to minimize the gap spacing. Minimizing the gap spacing reduces the residual stresses.
In order to minimize the possibility of cracking, use large tack welds. The tack welds should have a maximum width of 8 mm (0.32 inch) and a length of 75 mm (3 inch).
A Tiger Torch can be used in order to preheat the material that is welded. Preheating is most critical during the tack welding procedure and during the welding of the root pass. Refer to Table 5 for the required preheat temperature of the weld area.
Preheat Temperatures     | |
---|---|
Combined Thickness of Material     | Welding Preheat     |
0 mm (0.0 inch) to 65 mm (2.6 inch)     |
100 °C (212 °F)     |
66 mm (2.6 inch) to 100 mm (3.9 inch)     |
125 °C (257 °F)     |
greater than 100 mm (3.9 inch)     |
175 °C (350 °F)     |
Ensure that the weld groove and 76 mm (3 inch) in each direction from the weld groove is preheated to the specified temperature. Verify the preheat temperature with a 164-3310 Infrared Thermometer or with a temperature stick.
The minimum interpass temperature should equal the preheat temperature. The maximum interpass temperature should not exceed 250 °C (480 °F).
Note: The above preheat and interpass temperatures are for mild restraint to moderate restraint. If clamping devices are utilized in order to reduce the gap spacing to less than 3 mm (0.12 inch), use the next higher preheat temperature, when possible. Additional stresses are offset by using the next higher preheat temperature.
Note: When the ambient temperature is below 0 °C (32 °F) the initial preheat temperature should be raised to 121 °C (250 °F). Preheat 76.0 mm (3.0 inch) inches in each direction from the weld joint. Proper preheat technique will help avoid the possible heat sink of the floorplates.
Inspected all welded areas. Cracking that is induced from hydrogen welding normally occurs within 72 hours of welding. Allow the welded areas to cool for 48 hours to 72 hours prior to performing a visual inspection. If any welding areas are suspected of being cracked during the visual inspection, then use the dye penetrant process or the magnetic particle inspection process in order to inspect the welding areas. The welds shall be free from the following defects: cracks, porosity, undercut and incomplete fusion. All weld quality shall conform to American National Standards Institute (ANSI)/American Welding Society (AWS) D14.3.
