6% brown weldments in CA6NM
6% brown weldments in CA6NM
(OP)
We just pulled a small ca6nm case and there are some small weld repair areas in the volute discolored, Any way chrome content is 6% in those spots. We are told repairs were completed with 410nimo and that their engineer believes chrome content can weaken in slurry conditions. I have never heard of this... I'm thinking 6% chrome 8018 series.... any thoughts?
It will be repaired the correct way.

CA-6NM is not all that difficult when you understand it, and that starts with recognizing it cannot be classified together with any other martensitic SS. It is an alloy that amateurs (including many shop foremen) should resist playing with. (So contact me, its my signature dish.)
