9 % Nickel Welding - Radiography.
9 % Nickel Welding - Radiography.
(OP)
We are using E NicrFe-9 (Weld Metal) electrodes for 9% Nickel plate (Base Metal) welding. Weld metal is having approximately 70% Nickel. The joint is welded from both sides.Is there is any necessary to provide backing strip during radiography to avoid density difference between the Weld metal and Base metal?





RE: 9 % Nickel Welding - Radiography.
I don't think we used a back-up during our X-ray on some 9% nickel cryo tanks. However, one test shot should be all that is necessary to determine if this will be the case.
