CWI Stamp

CWI Stamp

CWI Stamp

(OP)
Is it necessary for a WPQ Welders Cert to be stamped with a CWI stamp and is it stated anywhere.

RE: CWI Stamp

It is necessary only if required by the contract.  It is not required by AWS specifications.

RE: CWI Stamp

(OP)
Is this stated in AWS,ASME or anywhere else.

RE: CWI Stamp

NO, it is not stated.

Not stated....don't have to do it

RE: CWI Stamp

(OP)
Thanks

Doesn't hurt anything at all to have a CWI stamp on WPQs, WPSs, PQRs....you can stamp these documents.

 

RE: CWI Stamp

There is no requirement by AWS to ever use a stamp. Some contracts/job specs will want reports, PQR's, and WPS' to be stamped by a CWI.

RE: CWI Stamp

Makes sense to stamp the WPQ's if you need the WPQ's on future projects. Codes may change, and some clients will only approve WPQ's approved by a third party organization.
