What is the intended application? The carbon content of the 1095 CS is going to be a real problem for welding. The preheat requirement for welding 1095 CS is going to be at least 500 deg F. I would suggest using a nickel-base electrode, like Inconel 182, with tight stringer beads.

This material is intended for wearbars which are to be plug welded to a A36 T-rail embedded in the tank floor in a water treatment plant. This is not a critical application.
