Update on SS to Tantalum weld
Update on SS to Tantalum weld
(OP)
Found a paper that said this weld area has such low tensile
that a test piece cannot be machined into a tensile test piece
But we have it sealing at 1000c and Ultra high vacuum , just so long as you do not flex the welded area,, or it will crack

RE: Update on SS to Tantalum weld
Considering that the SS will have strength of a few 100psi at that temp you are going to have to very careful that you don't stress the joint anyway.
