AL-6XN Welding
AL-6XN Welding
(OP)
Does anyone have a welding procedure for welding AL-6XN to carbon steel?? I have searched our AWS D1.6 for any information and I have also gone to vendors with no luck as of now. I realzize it is not a desirable weld.

See page 38 of the AL-6XN source book. The filler metal for this weld joint should be a Ni-base, like Incoweld A or 82/182 depending on the welding process.
The key is to limit the heat input for the AL6-XN. I would suggest you qualify a weld procedure for this application.

I am going to ask one question regarding your OP, why are you welding CS to an alloy that has excellent corrosion resistance? Again, read the source book that I mentioned above to fully understand the uses of AL-6XN.
